Nguyen Van Tho, the Vietnamese Ambassador to China, said that Vietnam has achieved remarkable progress in social, economic and cultural fields, and China has contributed a lot to its progress.
"On behalf of the Vietnamese government and people, I thank the Chinese government and people as well as the international community and friends for their long-term support and help," Nguyen said.
Nguyen also praised the close relations between Vietnam and China.
