Under a pilot project, 24 Lao students will stay with 13 local households for three months.

Lao Consul General in HCM City Phimpha Keomixay thanked the local authorities for their good care and support for Lao students who live far away from their families, and spoke highly of this homestay project, saying that it helps them learn more about Vietnam.
