The legislator suggested the two committees tighten their cooperation to exchange information, organize workshops to share experience and increase exchanges and meetings at bilateral and multilateral forums.

Bouakham Thippavong highlighted the significant role played by the justice sector to Laos’ social stability and order, anti-corruption as well as socio-economic and cultural development.

It is necessary for the Lao Justice Committee, which was established in 2016, to learn from its Vietnamese counterpart’s organization and operation, she said, noting her hope that the Vietnamese and Lao legislatures and the committees will intensify their coordination to promote the time-honored relations, special solidarity and comprehensive cooperation between the two Parties, States and people.
