Young parliamentarians suggest measures to address global
issues
Cyber warfare and water security are pressing global issues
that came under scrutiny at the Forum of Young Parliamentarians in
Participants said varied understandings of cyber warfare
across different nations need to be consolidated into a global definition of
“cyber war” and “cybercrime” to clarify their imminent danger.
With Internet access and the boom in cutting-edge
technologies, cyber war and cybercrime impacts every government, organisation
and individual, leaving the youth most vulnerable.
To protect the youth while maximising the opportunities of the
digital era, delegates suggested practical measures such as building a code
of conduct on the Internet, issuing cybercrime laws, promoting parental
control capacity and stepping up responsibility education.
First Secretary of the Ho Chi Minh Communist Youth Union
Central Committee and President of the Vietnam Students’ Association Nguyen
Dac Vinh asked the IPU to issue a joint statement calling on all countries to
avoid cyber wars in any form against one another. He also proposed the UN
build an international treaty in the field that encourages closer cooperation
among IPU member countries in cyber security and ensuring information
security.
Young parliamentarians also pointed to ensuring water security
as an urgent need amid the world’s growing population, increasingly
complicated climate change impacts, and mushrooming disease burdens. They
underscored the necessity of creating efficient water governance mechanisms,
enhancing cooperation between governments and parliaments, and improving
youth awareness of water security.
Meanwhile, Vietnamese representatives suggested IPU member
parliaments adjust their legal systems and promulgate policies facilitating
sustainable management and use of water resources.
They should also promote consensus among countries sharing
water resources in addressing disagreements, ratify and monitor the
implementation of international conventions and agreements on water resources
use and protection, and pay increased attention to water in parliamentary
diplomatic activities, the Vietnamese delegates added.
Proposals at the forum will be submitted to sessions of the
Standing Committee on Peace and International Security and the Standing
Committee on Sustainable Development, Finance, and Trade, as well as to the
IPU-132 plenary session.-
During discussions spanning over March 2-27, Ambassador Nguyen
Trung Thanh, Head of the Vietnamese Delegation to the UN, made constructive

situations which are predicted to develop in a more complex manner.

to protect the country’s sovereignty over its sea and islands.
Throughout 80 years, under the leadership of the Party,
generations of militiamen have dedicated their wholehearted loyalty to the
Party’s revolutionary cause.
The MSF members have represented their unyielding fighting
spirit and courage during the national resistance wars against foreign
invaders as well as their creativity and effectiveness in the national
construction and development.

Vietnam-Japan relations enjoy great progress
Cooperation between Japan and Vietnam has progressed
intensively and extensively over the past year, Japanese Foreign Minister
Fumio Kishida has stated in an exclusive interview granted to the Vietnam
News Agency (VNA).
The interview focused on developments in Vietnam-Japan
relationship and Japan’s contributions to peace and stability in Asia-Pacific
since the two countries elevated their ties to the Extensive Strategic
Partnership for Peace and Stability in Asia.
The Minister revealed that he frequently visited Vietnam since
becoming a congressman and joining the Japan-Vietnam Friendship
Parliamentarians’ Group.
“In my view, Vietnam is a very special country,” Kishida told
the VNA, recounting his co-chair of the Japan-Vietnam Cooperation Committee’s
meeting in 2014 and the two previous years with Deputy Prime Minister and
Foreign Minister Pham Binh Minh.
He spoke highly of the two sides discussing wide-ranging
cooperation and ways to expedite the cooperation at Japan-Vietnam Cooperation
Committee meetings.
He recalled his talks in this March in Japan with Vice State
President Nguyen Thi Doan on the sidelines of the third UN World Conference
on Disaster Risk Reduction which came up with affirmation that bilateral
affiliation will be promoted.
Minister Kishida expressed his desires to speed up connection
with Vietnam as well as working together with the country for peace,
stability, and prosperity in the region.
Regarding the scheduled birth of an ASEAN Community late this
year, Kishida said he viewed a closely-knitted and more prosperous ASEAN is
extremely crucial to peace, stability, and development in the region.
He asserted that Japan continues supporting the bloc’s efforts
in reinforcing regional connectivity and narrowing the development gap among
its member countries, and bolstering linkages with the bloc in maritime
security and natural disaster prevention and control, among others.
Japan also wishes to promote regional cooperation where ASEAN
plays the central role, the Minister said, looking forward to seeing the
upcoming seventh Japan-Mekong Summit in Tokyo, which is expected to see the
attendance of Prime Minister Nguyen Tan Dung, putting forth a new strategy to
intensify connectivity with Vietnam.
On Japan’s role in creating a peaceful and stable environment
in the Asian-Pacific region whose security is increasingly facing hidden
risks that could cause uncertainties and disputes, Minister Kishida quoted
Prime Minister Shinzo Abe’s speech which referred to the “importance of the
supremacy of law at sea”.
According to the Minister, “the supremacy of law” in
safeguarding order is of extreme importance for the sake of peace and
stability in the region.
Grounded on the “positive pacifism” stance and the spirit of
international harmony, Japan wishes to work together with Vietnam in
continuous efforts towards peace and stability in the region, he affirmed.
A year ago State President Truong Tan Sang made a State visit
to Japan at the invitation of Emperor Akihito and Empress.
This was the first State visit by Truong Tan Sang as State
President and the second by the Head of State of Vietnam over the past 40 years
since 1973 when the two countries established their diplomatic ties.
The visit was an important milestone marking a great progress
in bilateral ties as both sides agreed to promote their “Strategic
Partnership” to “Extensive Strategic Partnership for Peace and Prosperity in
Asia’.
