He also shared that Lemhannas is a national-level strategic training institution under the President of Indonesia, tasked with training and preparing a generation of national leaders with a comprehensive, integrated, and professional vision.

Overview of the event
Prof, Dr Nguyen Xuan Thang, Politburo member, President of the Ho Chi Minh National Academy of Politics, and Chairman of the Central Theory Council emphasised that the Politburo of the Communist Party of Vietnam Central Committee has issued a resolution on education development based on the principles of an open, modern, and connected education system with outcomes used to assess quality. For higher education, the focus is on building a flexible labour market grounded in science and technology. To formalise cooperation in personnel training and development between the two countries, as well as between the Ho Chi Minh National Academy of Politics and Lemhannas, the Vietnamese official suggested that the international cooperation units of both sides create a priority cooperation framework and prepare to sign a memorandum of understanding. Focal areas should include collaboration in training, research, policy dialogue, expert exchanges, and the sharing of publications.
Dr Ace Hasan Syadzily, Governor of Lemhannas of Indonesia agreed with this proposal and expressed the hope to promote more concrete cooperation, including student exchanges, policy research, and organisation of working visits. These activities will help enhance mutual understanding of the countries' public administration models, foreign policies, and regional security governance policies.
After the meeting, the delegations of the Ho Chi Minh National Academy of Politics and Lemhannas held a dialogue to discuss Vietnam’s education system transformation aimed at building a high-quality workforce to serve the development goals for 2045, as well as experiences, policies, and cooperation models in training and developing high-quality human resources./.
