The Lao Government has donated US$100,000 to assist people in Vietnam’s flood-hit regions.
Laos’ Deputy Foreign Minister, Alounkeo Kittikhoun, handed over the sum to the Vietnamese embassy in Vientiane on October 28.
Kittikhoun said although small, this donation reflects the strong ties between Laos’ government and people and the Vietnamese people.
He expressed the wish that the flood victims will recover quickly and get back to their daily routine.
The Vietnamese Ambassador to Laos, Ta Minh Chau, extended his thanks to the Laos government for their gift, which he said once again demonstrated the close solidarity and mutual support between the fraternal people of Vietnam and Laos.
