Participants discussed and approved the working agenda for the 45th AIPA General Assembly.
Man expressed confidence that under the leadership of the host, NA President Saysomphone Phomvihane, and the thorough preparations by the Lao National Assembly, the AIPA-45 will be a great success, contributing to enhancing the country's role and position in the region.
The attendance of Man and the Vietnamese delegation at the AIPA-45 reflects the proactive and responsible engagement of the Vietnamese NA alongside the parliaments of the member countries.
This engagement aims to strengthen ASEAN's central role, unity, and solidarity; enhance intra-regional cooperation; and expand multifaceted relations with parliaments both inside and outside the region.
The goal is to promote AIPA's responsibility and role in ensuring peace, stability, and development, while introducing valuable initiatives to support ASEAN governments in addressing regional priorities.
Vietnam is poised to propose four initiatives/resolutions at various AIPA meetings, namely the AIPA Young Parliamentarians’ Meeting, the AIPA Committee on Social Matters, the AIPA Conference of Women Parliamentarians, and the AIPA Committee on Economic Matters.
The Vietnamese delegation will also consider co-sponsoring six resolutions, including five proposed by Laos and one jointly by Indonesia, Laos, and Malaysia.
