At the ceremony, Miniter Cuong congratulated the Ambassador on having a successful term in Vietnam. He said the Ambassador played an important role in promoting the cooperation between Vietnam and Japan, especially in the legal and judicial field. He expressed the hope that Mr Yasuaki Tanizaki would continue to support the activities of legal and judicial cooperation.

Thanked for the good sentiment from the Ministry of Justice, the Ambassador emphasized building the legal basis is more important than building the technical infrastructure of a country; legal cooperation helps to share experience and link generations between the two countries.
