The Vietnamese diplomat also met with KVA leaders sand Vietnamese community representatives, addressing administrative challenges and encouraging stronger cooperation with local authorities to promote legal compliance and social integration.

During visits to Vietnamese enterprises in the three provinces, Vu commended their resilience in challenging conditions and their role in job creation and social programmes, noting that such contributions strengthen the Vietnam–Cambodia partnership.
