During the joint patrol

The borderline and border landmarks have been maintained while the two peoples have strictly observed agreement on border management regulations. Therefore, political security situation and social order and safety on both sides along the border have been ensured.

Concluding the patrol, both sides had a meeting to learn from experience and signed a memorandum of understanding. They also mapped out solutions and discussed contents for the next patrol.

This is a regular activity of the two units. The program contributed to preserving and tightening special friendship and solidarity between Vietnam and Laos as well as mutual understanding between the two units.

It also helped the two border protection forces promote information dissemination about regulations on management of Vietnam-Laos border areas for the peoples and strictly control illegal border crossings.
