The party daily also praised great successes achieved by the Chinese people in the socialist construction and modernization.

The Vietnamese army daily Quan Doi Nhan Dan said that the visitis a new milestone in the history of the long-time traditional friendship between Vietnam and China.

It expressed its confidence that Jiang's visit will get fine success, opening a fine new stage for Vietnam-China relationship.

Hanoi Moi, the Hanoi municipal party committee's daily, also praised Jiang's visit saying it will create spring vigor for Vietnam-China friendship.

The English daily Vietnam News said with confidence that the visit will further strengthen the traditional relationship, meeting the aspirations of both peoples and serving the cause of national construction in both countries.

Jiang's official goodwill is scheduled from Wednesday to Friday at the invitations of General Secretary of the Communist Party of Vietnam Central Committee Nong Duc Manh and Vietnamese State President Tran Duc Luong.
