The ASEAN Ambassadors Lecture Series is an ongoing program organized by ASEAN-China Centre (ACC) to boost public awareness about ASEAN Member States in China and to enhance mutual understanding and friendship between ASEAN and China, especially among the young generation. During the past years, two lectures by the Indonesian and Malaysian Ambassadors were successfully held at Beijing Foreign Studies University (BFSU).

On 12 March 2014, the 3rd lecture of ASEAN Ambassadors Lecture Series (Viet Nam), co-organized by ACC and BFSU, was successfully held at the Academic Lecture Hall of the Library of BFSU. H.E.
