For his part, Oudomxay governor Bounkhong Lachiemphon said the school is a symbol of cooperation between the province and Vietnam in general and with the Vietnamese community in Laos in particular.

With an investment of  6.7 billion LAK (308,000 USD), once operational, the school will become a place to provide Vietnamese language classes for overseas Vietnamese and Laos in the province and Northern area, helping them pursuit their higher education in Vietnam or for other purposes.
