The writers described reading books as the key to open the door of development, saying reading equips people with more knowledge and understanding about the world.

As part of the programme, workshops and exchanges will be held on the reading and use of the Lao language for both Lao and foreign students.

On this occasion, there is a book exhibition displaying hundreds of book titles from ASEAN countries.
