Namibian President Hifikepunye Pohamba is scheduled to start his three-day official visit to Viet Nam today.
His visit affirms the African country's wish to foster co-operation with Viet Nam, especially in investment, trade, agro-forestry, seafood, education and aviation.
The visit is being made at the invitation of Vietnamese President Truong Tan Sang.
Viet Nam and Namibia set up diplomatic ties in 1990, based on the fine traditional relationship first started in the '70s between the Communist Party of Viet Nam and the South West Africa People's Organisation (SWAPO) – the current ruling party in Namibia.
