General Secretary of the Communist Party of Vietnam Central
Committee and President of Vietnam To Lam and Prime Minister of Thailand Anutin
Charnvirakul witnessed the exchange of cooperation documents between ministries
and agencies of the two countries in Bangkok on May 28, the Vietnam News Agency
reported.

The documents include an Action Program for implementing the
Vietnam-Thailand Comprehensive Strategic Partnership for the 2026-2031 period,
and a diplomatic note notifying that Thailand’s Ministry of Higher Education,
Science, Research and Innovation will assume the functions and tasks previously
undertaken by the former Ministry of Science and Technology and continue
implementing agreements signed with Vietnam’s Ministry of Science and
Technology. They also consist of a memorandum of understanding (MoU) on
cooperation in developing a maintenance, repair and operation center project
between Vietjet and Thailand’s Eastern Economic Corridor Office; and another on
cooperation between the Academy of Politics, Public Administration and
Governance and Thailand’s Khon Kaen University.

On the occasion, Party General Secretary and State President
To Lam and Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul jointly pressed the button to
officially launch the logo marking the 50th anniversary of Vietnam-Thailand
diplomatic ties.

The commemorative logo symbolizes the two countries’ shared
journey of development and enduring partnership. The number “5” features
dynamic curves representing movement and momentum, reflecting Vietnam’s vibrant
energy and continuous efforts towards future development. The number “0” is
depicted as a circle symbolizing stability, balance and a solid foundation. The
circular shape reflects the unity and harmony underpinning relations between
the two nations.

The logo’s color palette incorporates the colors of both
national flags – red, blue, white and yellow – seamlessly blended to represent
close cooperation. The number “50” also symbolizes half a century of
collaboration aimed at advancing the prosperity and development of both
nations.

Vietnam and Thailand are countries in Southeast Asia with a
long-standing friendship. Since officially establishing diplomatic relations on
August 6, 1976, bilateral cooperation has continued to expand rapidly in both
breadth and depth.

The two countries have maintained strong relations and a
high level of political trust between their leaders and people. This serves as
an important and solid foundation for increasingly deep and trustworthy ties at
all levels and across all channels, including State, Government, parliamentary,
business, locality-to-locality and people-to-people exchanges.

Over the past 50 years, Vietnam-Thailand relations have
steadily grown stronger, particularly after Vietnam joined ASEAN. Today,
bilateral ties are developing comprehensively across all areas in line with the
framework of their Comprehensive Strategic Partnership.
