Abstract

Since 2020, through the ASEAN - Mekong mechanism, Vietnam has strengthened cooperation with the Mekong sub-regional countries in terms of environmental, social and cultural aspects. By virtue of that, the countries have coordinated to solve many issues directly related to their security, economic and political interests; they, however, also face such internal difficulties and challenges as water security, cross border crime, drug trafficking and the increasing competition between two major powers, the U.S. and China. The paper focuses on analyzing Vietnam’s guidelines, policies and cooperation processes with other countries in the Mekong sub-region on culture, society and environment. Then, it gives some assessments and forecasts about this policy in the future.
