NEW DELHI — Việt Nam's 'bamboo diplomacy' is a strategic and valuable concept in international relations, according to former Deputy National Security Advisor of India SD Pradhan. He held that over the years, the 'bamboo diplomacy' school has helped Việt Nam reap important achievements in external relations amid the complicated world situation. Total import-export revenue of Việt Nam last year grew 9.5 per cent to US$732.5 billion, he said. The expert underlined that the 'bamboo diplomacy' school should be popularised and added to research topics of academic organisations. Besides, Việt Nam and India should strengthen cooperation in developing advanced technology to promote economic growth, while fostering cooperation in the field of defence, he asserted.
