I observed the preparations for Vietnam’s 16th National Assembly and People’s Councils elections for the 2026–2031 term. The organized process reflects Vietnam’s strong institutional capacity and commitment to development.

Vietnam has made notable progress in economic growth, poverty reduction, infrastructure, and global integration. With over five decades of diplomatic relations, continued parliamentary cooperation between Sri Lanka and Vietnam remains important for collaboration and shared development.
