This is an important project that the two academies have been tasked with by the Party and State of the two countries.

Addressing the ceremony, the Lao academy’s director Thongsalith Mangnomek said that the two academies had tried their best to implement the project of “Translating Complete Works of Ho Chi Minh from Vietnamese to Lao language and compiling a dictionary for Ho Chi Minh studies” which was launched last May.

Besides the published first volume, they have basically completed the translation of the second to eighth volumes of the Complete Works of Ho Chi Minh.

The project is expected to be completed next year.

The Lao academy’s director also said that the debut of the first volume not only serves the study and research at Lao educational establishments, but is also part of practical activities in celebration of the Vietnam - Laos Friendship Year 2017.
