That is the opinion of journalist Khamvisan Keosouphan, former Assistant to the Head of the Central Propaganda Department of the Lao People's Revolutionary Party, when sharing with VNA reporters.
As a journalist who regularly follows Vietnam, Mr. Khamvisan was strongly impressed when reading General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong's speech about Vietnam's policy of building a "bamboo diplomacy" school.
According to him, General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong has clarified the nature and direction of Vietnam's diplomacy, which is the diplomacy that has been summarized throughout the thousands of years of building, protecting and developing the country of the Vietnamese people, based on the immutable principles and consistent ideology of independence, self-reliance and ensuring the highest national interests.
It is a smooth combination of patriotism, national culture, Vietnamese tradition with the quintessence of culture and world diplomatic experience. In which, always uphold the goal of national independence, the spirit of peace and friendship; use diplomacy to prevent and repel conflicts; associate with world practices, bring Vietnam into the flow of the times...
Meanwhile, Professor Go Ito, of Meiji University (Japan), commented that the term "bamboo diplomacy" is an interesting metaphor. According to him, the main features of this diplomatic approach are resilience, flexibility and modesty. The professor emphasized that flexibility exists in Vietnam's foreign policy, in maintaining relations with other countries.
Japanese experts believe that Vietnam is in a favorable environment to achieve an important position in ASEAN, while having political and economic ties with countries in the region, such as Japan and South Korea.
According to Professor Go Ito, Vietnam is the Southeast Asian country closest to Japan and is also connected to the Indochina peninsula, which is an important factor promoting Vietnam-Japan relations.
Chairman of the Israel-Vietnam Friendship Association and former Israeli Ambassador to Vietnam Amikam Levy said that the "bamboo diplomacy" policy is a great policy and initiative, demonstrating the leadership style and commitment of the Communist Party of Vietnam for the benefit of the Vietnamese people.
Expressing his admiration for the "bamboo diplomacy" school, Mr. Levy said this was a clever combination, because bamboo is always flexible and strong, with a high sense of community; bamboo is flexible, but also strong and trustworthy.
The Chairman of the Israel-Vietnam Friendship Association expressed his good impression of the role of the Communist Party of Vietnam in leading the country to achieve outstanding socio-economic achievements. According to the Israeli diplomat, the Vietnamese leaders have a vision and a spirit of dedication for the benefit of the people, making the country powerful.
