Deputy Head of the Government Committee for Religious Affairs Bui Thanh Ha made the statement on September 1 while hosting a delegation from the Lao Buddhist Coalition Central Committee led by Most Venerable Ngon Dam Hong Boun.
The Lao venerable said a range of joint activities, such as exchanges and Buddhism education, have been organised following a memorandum of understanding on co-operation signed between the two agencies in 2015.
He hoped the ties would continue to grow based on the spirit of Vietnam-Laos solidarity.
After the meeting, the Lao delegation had a working session with the Vietnam Buddhist Sangha Central Committee to discuss their future coordination.
