HANOI<\/strong>\u00a0— Vietnam is ready to take over the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (Asean) chairmanship in 2020 with 300 meetings and activities scheduled to be held in the country next year, said Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs Nguy\u1ec5n Qu\u1ed1c D\u0169ng.<\/p>\n

The most important will be summits in April and November and the 41st General Assembly of the Asean Inter-Parliamentary Assembly (AIPA) in August.<\/p>\n

Vietnam will also host the Asean Foreign Ministers’ Meeting and ministerial meetings.<\/p>\n

D\u0169ng said the Asean Foreign Ministers’ Retreat in the central city of Nha Trang in January would kick off Vietnam\u2019s Asean Chairmanship.<\/p>\n

Speaking at an international press conference on Vietnam\u2019s Asean chairmanship on Monday, D\u0169ng, who is Secretary General of the National Asean 2020 Committee, said 2020 had a significant meaning to both Asean and Vietnam. It marked the mid-term review of the Asean Community\u2019s Master Plan 2015-25, while Vietnam would celebrate its 25th anniversary as a member of the bloc.<\/p>\n

Highlighting that Vietnam\u2019s Chairmanship was a major responsibility that could provide many opportunities for Vietnam, he said: \u201cVietnam will spare no efforts to successfully act as Asean Chairman 2020, making contributions to building a cohesive and consolidated Asean Community.\u201d<\/p>\n

He said Vietnam had selected the theme \u201cCohesive and Responsive\u201d for Asean 2020. The two elements were interdependent and complimentary to each other, he added.<\/p>\n

Vietnam\u2019s chairmanship 2020 will put focus on upholding Asean\u2019s responsibilities and positive roles in maintaining regional peace, security and stability on the basis of strengthening the bloc\u2019s solidarity and unity.<\/p>\n

Vietnam will promote regional connections and enhance the region\u2019s ability to adapt to and take advantage of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, deepening economic ties and comprehensive connections within the bloc and with other partners.<\/p>\n

The other priorities of Vietnam\u2019s chairmanship 2020 are to promote Asean awareness and identities; strengthening partnerships for peace and sustainable growth with countries around the world to uphold Asean\u2019s role and contributions to the global community.<\/p>\n

The Asean chairmanship 2020 would aim at enhancing the ability to adapt and the effective operation of the Asean apparatus, D\u0169ng said.<\/p>\n

Vietnam had been preparing for the role since the establishment in December last year of the National Asean 2020 Committee led by Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs Ph\u1ea1m B\u00ecnh Minh, he said.<\/p>\n

Responding to a question regarding the challenges Vietnam would face taking over two roles at the same time next year — being the Asean chairman and a non-permanent member of the UN Security Council, D\u0169ng said the roles complemented each other. As Asean chairman, Vietnam represented Asean at the UN and also acted as a bridge between Asean and the UN to carry out Asean plans in synchronization with UN goals.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have to focus on the diversified viewpoints of many groups as well as protect Asean’s interests. Vietnam will have to collaborate with Asean members the UN Security Council to ensure balance, and pay due attention to the interests of different sides in accordance with global trends.<\/p>\n

\u201cThese are heavy responsibilities and Vietnam will try its best to accomplish them,\u201d he told reporters.<\/p>\n

At the press briefing, Deputy Minister of Culture, Sports and Tourism L\u00ea Quang T\u00f9ng said the ministry had plans to promote the image of the Vietnamese land and people in 2020.<\/p>\n

There would be art performances to celebrate Asean 2020 summits, the Asean film week and exhibitions and sporting events, he said.<\/p>\n
