Deputy Minister of Education and Sports of Laos Khanthali Siliphuaphan said Laos will increase the teaching of Vietnamese language for its students before coming to Vietnam to study along with working more closely with the Vietnamese side to better manage its students in Vietnam.
At the forum, 15 cooperation deals were signed between Vietnamese universities and their Lao peers and Lao businesses.
