The Vietnamese Union of Friendship Organisations (VUFO) will provide 50 computer sets for the Cuban Institute for Friendship with the Peoples (ICAP) later this month.

The devices, purchased with funding from the Joint Stock Commercial Bank for Foreign Trade of Viet Nam (Vietcombank), were symbolically presented by the bank’s Vice General Director Pham Manh Thang to VUFO Vice President Don Tuan Phong at a ceremony on September 21 in Ha Noi.

The high-configuration computers will be used in a project to build the capacity of the staff of the Havana-based Institute and its members across Cuba.

Viet Nam and Cuba have continuously fostered their relations since their establishment on December 2, 1960.

Cuba provided significant support for Viet Nam during its previous struggles for independence and freedom.

The two nations’ high-level leaders have pledged to deepen the solidarity, traditional friendship and close-knit cooperation between the two countries for the sake of their respective national protection and socialism development.
