Le Van Thuy, Vice President of the General Association of Vietnamese People in Laos, said he was particularly inspired by Party General Secretary To Lam’s message on the new era of national development. The address, he noted, deeply resonated with the overseas Vietnamese community, reinforcing their pride and aspirations for the nation’s progress. He affirmed that the Vietnamese community in Laos has absolute confidence in the Party’s leadership and remains committed to contributing wholeheartedly to the country’s future.
