​The conference room was humming with anticipation as headmasters from 66 leading universities in Vietnam and Hungary converged in Hanoi for the inaugural headmaster’s conference between the two nations.

Hungary also grants 50 scholarships to Vietnamese students annually and research institutes from both nations have actively cooperated in several fields, Minister Luan said, adding that he considers the the seminar a significant step forward in cooperation between the nations.
