The visit also contributes to strengthening the great friendship, special solidarity, and comprehensive cooperation between the Parties, States, and people of Vietnam and Laos, he said.

In 2024, the Lao legislature will assume the Presidency of the ASEAN Inter-Parliamentary Assembly (AIPA) and organize the 45th AIPA General Assembly, he said, adding that he hopes the Vietnamese N.A. will continue to help and share experience so that Laos can organize the event successfully.
