Overseas Vietnamese in Laos confident in home country's future
Forty-eight years after the national reunification, the Vietnamese community in Laos have been proud of the country’s achievements in national development and external relations, and supported the Party and State’s policy regarding the overseas Vietnamese (OV) community.
A view of Ho Chi Minh City (Photo: VNA)Pham Van Hung, President of the Vietnamese Association in Laos, attributed the country’s current success to the continuous and persistent efforts of the Party, State and people. He affirms that the country is on the right way to socialism and the proper “Doi Moi” (Renewal) policy and the Party’s leadership, he said.
He underlined that the country’s achievements lay the foundation for Vietnamese people’s confidence in the country’s future of prosperous socialism and happiness.
Hung expressed his delight at the development of the ties between the two Parties and States of Vietnam and Laos, which practically benefit both peoples and contribute to the socio-economic development in each country.
He highly valued the great attention that the Party and State have given to the Vietnamese community in Laos, which, together with the OV community in general, is defined as an inseparable part of the national great solidarity bloc.
Tran Thi Hue, a 70-year-old OV in Laos, said that she always keeps in her mind the absolute trust in the leadership of the Party, State and Government of Vietnam, and appreciates the support that Vietnam has given to the Vietnamese community in Laos, especially in education.
She said that the construction of Nguyen Du school, funded by the Vietnamese Government in 2005 in Vientiane, has provided a good education facility for Vietnamese and Lao students, giving them favourable conditions to study Vietnamese. Each year, Vietnam offers many scholarships to children from the Vietnamese community in Laos.
Le Anh Duc, Vice President of the Vietnamese Association in Vientiane, said that the Party and State of Vietnam have not only given timely support and optimal conditions to the Vietnamese community in Laos to live, study and work, but also backed Vietnamese businesses in operating and investing in the neighbouring country, thus contributing to the economic development of both sides and deepening the special relations between Vietnam and Laos./.
