Receiving the materials, Foreign Secretary of Bangladesh Masud bin Momen expressed his belief that friendship between Bangladesh and ASEAN member states will become closer. He wished to learn from experience in COVID-19 control of several ASEAN nations, including Vietnam.
On the occasion, Chien presented over 1,500 medical masks, which are donations from the Vietnamese community in Bangladesh, to the host Government to support front-line medical staff in the fight.
