Minister of Technology and Communications and Chairman of the Laos – Vietnam Friendship Association Boviengkham Vongdara told the Vietnam News Agency that it is Laos’ honour to welcome President Lam who will make his first state visit to the nation.
Amidst the complicated and unpredictable developments in the region and the world, as well as tensions in geopolitics and economy and natural disasters across the globe that may affect the development in both countries, Vongdara held that Vietnam and Laos should stand shoulders by shoulders to preserve their ties by consolidating cooperation across all areas, including the party work and political education for young generations, while working together in defence-security and culture-society.
The Laos - Vietnam Friendship Association will promote people-to-people exchange, a channel that helps the two nations' people to tighten and develop their relations into a deeper fashion, he said, adding it will continue raising young generations' awareness of the great friendship between the two countries, and the significance to preserving it for mutual development.
