At multilateral forums, Vietnam and China have actively coordinated to promote peace, stability and cooperation in the region and the world, and supported each other in joining international organisations.

The affiliation between the Supreme People’s Courts of Vietnam and China had been reinforced, bringing about specific and practical benefits to the development of each nation as well as further tightening the traditional cooperation between two countries.

Throughout Vietnam’s socio-economic development, judicial reform has been a key task for its relevant agencies. During the process, agencies and the Supreme People’s Court must maintain close coordination to share experience with courts around the world, including the Supreme People’s Court of China.
