President of the State Audit Organisation of Laos Viengthavisone Thephachanh, for his part, described the project as an important one for the Lao audit organisation in promoting its modernisation such as e-document archive system and document management system so as to complete and develop the IT infrastructure for its audit activities.
He pledged to effectively capitalise on the project to improve the audit quality and contribute to the country's socio-economic development.
Earlier the same day, Dung paid a courtesy visit to Viengthavisone Thephachanh, during which both sides talked about the operations of each audit organisation in the past time, and discussed cooperation orientations in the time ahead.
They agreed to continue regular exchanges between high-level leaders of both audit organisations as well as carry out cooperation activities such as audit training and experience exchange.
The Lao side suggested the SAV continue support it with human resources training.
On the occasion, the SAV presented 20 laptops to the Lao audit organisation.
