Pham stressed the point on Thursday while addressing the 2024 forum of OV intellectuals and experts within the framework of the 4th World Conference of OVs.

He highlighted the importance of the forum, which shows the special attention of the Party and State for the OVs while affirming the role and contribution of the Vietnamese living abroad to the country.

Pham expressed his belief that the OVs, a source of strength of the nation, will make more contributions to building and defending the Fatherland.

He underlined the need to uphold the spirit of patriotism and utilize the great resources of OVs towards their homeland, adding that Vietnamese living abroad should be assisted to stabilize their lives and integrate into the host country's society, and build a strong and cohesive community.

During the four-day conference, a series of events will be held in open space for OVs around the world, providing them with an opportunity to meet, exchange, share ideas and make contributions to the country's development process.

More than 500 delegates from 43 countries and territories joined the events to discuss various topics in order to put forward new and practical solutions in diverse areas, particularly high technology, sustainable development, and innovation.

The conferece is expected to contribute to consolidating and enhancing the connections between OV experts, intellects and businesses, and domestic agencies, encouraging OVs to participate in the nation's development projects.

Over the past 30 years, the total amount of remittances transferred to the country reached more than US$200 billion, equivalent to the total disbursed volume of foreign direct investment in the same period.

By the end of 2023, OVs invested in 421 foreign direct investment projects with a total registered capital of US$1.72 billion./.
