"I look forward to continuing to work with you to further consolidate our time-tested friendship and our strategic partnership. I take this opportunity to wish you further success in your term in office and peace, prosperity and progress to the friendly people of Vietnam," Mukherjee said in his message to the Vietnamese leader.
