In the letter, Phanta Thonbongsa affirmed that the program was a vivid demonstration of the special friendship, solidarity and comprehensive cooperation between the two Parties, two States, and two militaries of Laos and Vietnam established by Vietnamese President Ho Chi Minh and Lao Presidents Kaysone Phomvihane and Souphanouvong.
