In recent years, the two sides have jointly implemented a number of high-profile communications activities marking major anniversaries of both countries, helping to widely promote the tradition of Vietnam–Laos special solidarity across the media, including on digital platforms, thereby fostering greater mutual understanding between their peoples.
Laos always cherishes and deeply values the special solidarity with Vietnam that generations of both countries' people have nurtured, said Lao Ambassador to Vietnam Khamphao Ernthavanh.
Congratulating the Lao people on the achievements they have made over the past 50 years, she expressed deep appreciation and pride in the great friendship, special solidarity, and comprehensive cooperation between the Parties, States, and people of the two countries, and stressed the importance of preserving and promoting the precious traditions nurtured by generations of leaders.
Deputy Prime Minister Ho Duc Phoc has expressed his hope that senior Lao leaders will continue to direct relevant agencies to create favourable conditions for Vietnamese businesses operating in Laos, particularly encouraging major Vietnamese corporations to invest and contribute to the country’s socio-economic development.
The project, a gift from the Party, State, and people of Vietnam to their Lao counterparts, was announced during the state visit to Laos by State President Luong Cuong in April.
The recognition and gratitude from the senior Lao leaders underscore that VNA is not only Vietnam’s national news agency but also a trusted bridge, strengthening the enduring Vietnam-Laos friendship.
Vietnam's accomplishments have been closely linked to the support of international partners, particularly the deep and enduring bonds with the Party, State, and people of Laos. The Vietnam–Laos relationship is an invaluable asset, nurtured and sustained across generations.
President Ho Chi Minh's life and great revolutionary career will forever be a shining example for generations of the Vietnamese people to learn and follow, according to publications of the Lao News Agency (KPL).
The visit will create new momentum for and substantially contribute to the great friendship between the two countries, making it develop in a deeper and more substantive and effective fashion to bring prosperity to the people of each country in the coming time.
On April 4–5, government offices and public institutions nationwide, along with Vietnam's representative bodies abroad, will fly flags at half-mast with mourning bands as prescribed.
