Implementing the cooperation agreement, the Border Guard Commands of Ha Tinh and Quang Binh provinces and the Khammouane provincial Military Command have actively disseminated information and encouraged local people to observe the Protocol on the borderline and national landmarks between Vietnam and Laos, as well as the agreement on land border and border gates management regulations between the two countries.
Meanwhile, the three sides have regularly exchanged information and situation, conducted patrols to protect the borderline and the system of border landmarks; effectively fought against different kinds of crimes; ensured political security, social order and safety; and firmly managed and safeguarded the territorial sovereignty and security along Vietnam - Laos borderline.
Over the past time, border stations of Quang Binh and Ha Tinh’s Border Guard Commands have worked with the Border Guard Company of the Khammouane provincial Military Command to carry out bilateral patrols while providing medicines and food for the border guard company and local people in adjacent areas, among others.
