The Mozambique Liberation Front (FRELIMO – the ruling party since 1975) was founded on June 25, 1962. In February 1977, at its 3rd Congress, the Mozambique Liberation Front announced its transformation into the FRELIMO Party, adopting Marxism-Leninism as its guiding ideology. Since holding its first multi-party general election in October 1994, FRELIMO has consistently won and continued to govern the country to this day.

The FRELIMO Party was one of the first political parties with which the Communist Party of Vietnam established relations, starting in the 1960s. The two parties maintain a traditional friendship. Over time, relations between the two parties have developed well, contributing to strengthening political trust and creating an important foundation for promoting cooperation between the two countries in many fields.

On the same day, the delegation, in coordination with the Mozambique Chamber of Commerce and Industry and the Vietnamese Embassy in Mozambique, organized a trade and investment promotion conference.

Attending the conference were Mr. Pham Hoang Kim, Vietnamese Ambassador to Mozambique; Mr. Alvaro Massingue, President of the Mozambique Chamber of Commerce and Industry; Mr. Gil Bies, Director General of the Mozambique Investment and Export Chamber; and many Mozambican businesses seeking investment cooperation opportunities.

Speaking at the conference, Mr. Alvaro Massingue, President of the Mozambique Chamber of Commerce and Industry, highly appreciated the cooperative and friendly relationship between the two countries, notably the Viettel Group's project in Mozambique. Mr. Alvaro Massingue expressed his hope that Vietnam would have many more effective projects like this in Mozambique; and that through today's conference, Mozambican businesses would gain a better understanding of the potential and opportunities for cooperation between the two countries.
