The presentation was made by Bounthong Chitmany, a Politburo member and Secretary of Lao People’s Revolutionary Party’s Central Committee, in Hanoi on November 15.

The second-class Issara Orders were given to Chief Government Inspector Huynh Phong Tranh, and the former Chief Government Inspector, Tran Van Truyen.
