“After 20 years of implementing Resolution 36, the work of Overseas Vietnamese Affairs has evolved into a collective responsibility shared by the entire political system and every citizen, including the overseas Vietnamese community. Given the multi-sectoral and multifaceted nature of Overseas Vietnamese Affairs, it is evident that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs alone cannot undertake this task without the coordination and support of central and local agencies, as well as the unity and cooperation of domestic citizens and the overseas Vietnamese community.
For instance, relevant ministries and agencies have worked in close coordination on the development and implementation of policies related to overseas Vietnamese. As a result, numerous policies have been issued in areas of significant interest to the overseas community, such as citizenship, housing, land ownership and residency. These policies have increasingly facilitated the return of overseas Vietnamese for work, investment and business, thereby strengthening their connection with the homeland.” – Viet Nam News
