STORYLINE
The Prime Minister of Czech Republic held talks with his counterpart in Hanoi on Friday, during his three day visit to Vietnam.
Mirek Topolanek and Vietnamese Prime Minister Nguyen Tan Dung inspected an honour guard during the official reception ceremony before heading inside for an hour long meeting.
Following their meeting, Topolanek and Dung held a signing ceremony, where they signed two agreements, on education and investment.
Topolanek's visit is to develop bilateral relations between the two countries.
"Since Vietnam has became an official member of World Trade Organisation last year, we now have more opportunities for trade between our two countries," Topolanek said, following the ceremony.
Topolanek, who is accompanied by a number of entrepreneurs, will address a Vietnam-Czech business forum and visit Vietnam's Investment and Development Bank in Hanoi.
He is also scheduled to meet the Vietnamese President Nguyen Minh Triet and the chairman of the Hanoi People's Committee before visiting the country's economic hub of Ho Chi Minh City.
Topolanek will depart Vietnam for an official visit to the United Arab Emirates on Sunday.
