The urgency of the thesis In the late 1980s, when Agreements on cultural and Science and technologicalcooperation between Vietnam and other socialist countries during the period between1986 and 1990 nearly expired, the socialist regime in Soviet Union fell into crisis. Thus,international relations moved to a new phase with fierce challenges, requiring quickadaptation from Vietnam to propose a new strategy in dealing with the changingcircumstances. In the context where the country was facing many difficulties there were manyprofound changes in the world situation. The Communist Party of Vietnam advocatedjoining ASEAN, thus defining cooperation on education and training with ASEANcountries as a priority. To implement the policy of the Party and State, the Ministry ofEducation and Training actively planned to join the South East Asian Ministers ofEducation Organisation (SEAMEO). On 10 Feb 1992, at the 27th meeting of theCouncil of Southeast Asian Ministers of Educatios, held in Brunei, the Ministry ofEducation and Training of the Socialist Republic of Viet Nam became an officialmember of this organization. After Vietnam became an official member of ASEAN(July 1995), and the Vietnamese Ministry of Education and Training became amember of the ASEAN Sub- Committee of Education (ASCOE), it has been activelycollaborated with other regional countries to carry out practical and effectiveactivities. In the task of boosting industrialization and modernization process in thecountry, education and training plays a very important role, as the top national policy.The Party and the Government have introduced many policies and closely monitoredto promote education and training in the country. One of the guidelines and measuresis to strengthen cooperation on education and training with other countries, especiallyregional ones. By 2010, Vietnam has established educational partnerships with morethan 80 countries and regions, 36 international organizations and 70 non- 2governmental organizations. Furthermore, cooperation on education and training alsocontributed to the promotion of Vietnamese diplomacy. At the 9th ASEAN Summit (October 2003), the ASEAN leaders signed theDeclaration of ASEAN Concord II (Bali Concord II), specifying major strategicorientations with the goal of building a strongly connected and self-improvedASEAN Community in 2020 on three pillars: Political – Security Community,Economic Community, and Cultural – Social Community. The 12th ASEAN Summit(January 2007) decided to shorten the formation of the ASEAN Community by 2015.In the building of the ASEAN Community, especially the Cultural – Social one, thequality of cooperation on education and training should be strengthened andimproved besides other areas of cooperation such as politics, security, andeconomics. As the initiator of the ASEAN Cultural – Social Community with education asan important element, Vietnam shall be responsible for and in charge of promotingcooperation on education and training between ASEAN countries. In that spirit, ourParty and Government have launched many policies and measures to finish the taskin the shortest time. From now to 2010, 15 years after Vietnam joined ASEAN, inorder to further improve the efficiency and quality of education and trainingcooperation with ASEAN countries, thus contributing to the building of the ASEANCultural - Social Community by 2015, it is important to carry out regular review andevaluation of achievements and constraints and to accumulate experiences on theParty’s policies and guidance on cooperation on education and training with otherASEAN countries.
