China, Vietnam hold seminar on socialist theories
Senior officials from the Communist Party of China (CPC) and Communist Party of Vietnam (CPV) took part in a seminar on socialist theories Saturday in Guiyang, capital of southwest China's Guizhou Province.
Liu Yunshan, a member of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and To Huy Rua, a member of the Political Bureau of the CPV Central Committee, made keynote speeches at the seminar.
Liu, who is also head of the Publicity Department of the CPC Central Committee, said the seminar, which centered on the discussion of the scientific concept of development and the construction of a harmonious socialist society, would enable the two parties to learn from the experiences of each other in pursuing the socialist ideals.
China and Vietnam are linked by common mountains and rivers, Liu said. Moreover, The two countries share common ideals and interests, he said. China is willing to make joint efforts with Vietnam in exploring ways to construct socialism while learning from each other during the process, he said.
Rua reviewed the theoretical results and experiences gained during the reform drive in the past two decades. Vietnam has always paid attention to, studied and learned from China's experience during the reform and opening-up drive, he said.
He believed the seminar could raise theoretical exchanges and discussions between the two parties to a new height.
