Bilateral cooperation in culture and heritage preservation has been a prominent highlight during Ambassador Warnery's tenure, she said, adding that with numerous cultural exchanges and effective training programmes, the French Institutes in Hanoi and several major Vietnamese cities and provinces have always been reputable destinations favoured by many Vietnamese people who wish to learn about the country, language, culture, and people of France.
During his tenure in Vietnam, Ambassador Warnery not only actively joined external activities held by VUFO but also showed great interest in and created favourable conditions for people-to-people exchange activities of the Vietnam-France Friendship and Cooperation Association and the French Alumni Vietnam Association.
