It also enabled scientists from both countries to share information, research approaches and lessons learned in strengthening Party and State institutions. He expressed his hope that the two sides would continue regular exchanges to promote reform and sustainable development in each country.
Kikeo Khaykhamphithoune praised the theme’s relevance, congratulating Vietnam on achievements in streamlining its central and local apparatuses, which have enhanced efficiency, saved resources and fostered innovation. He said the LPRP is also advancing organizational reforms in line with the Resolution of its 11th National Congress, aiming to meet national development needs and support international integration.
Delegates from both sides presented papers analyzing theoretical and practical issues in political system organization, and discussed challenges related to institutional frameworks, organizational awareness and human resources capacity.
The outcomes of the conference are expected to contribute to refining each Party’s policies and orientations in the new period.
