The Son La delegation was received by Somphonsy Oudomphone, President of the Lao Front for National Construction Committee of Luang Prabang province, along with other committee leaders.

At the talks, Somphonsy praised the two committees’ coordination in promoting public awareness of the traditional Laos–Vietnam friendship and mobilising border residents to protect borderlines and markers, maintain security and public order, and support local socio-economic development. He proposed continuing exchanges of experience, strengthening public outreach and mobilisation, and effectively implementing agreed cooperation initiatives.

Cua thanked the Luang Prabang committee for its warm and thoughtful reception. He highlighted achievements in public communication and mobilisation, strengthening national unity, contributing to Party and government building, conducting social oversight and policy criticism, and improving social welfare. 

Looking ahead, he called on the two provincial front committees to step up efforts to educate younger generations about the great friendship, special solidarity and comprehensive cooperation between Vietnam and Laos. He also urged them to raise awareness among border communities of their responsibilities to comply with the law and protect borderlines and markers.

He further called for greater efforts to mobilise support and facilitate business cooperation in essential infrastructure investment, technical assistance for farming and livestock production, agricultural processing, product promotion and market access.

In a spirit of special solidarity, friendship, mutual trust and understanding, the two sides signed working minutes for the 2026–2028 period. They agreed to strengthen coordination in public communication and mobilisation, and promote education on the Vietnam–Laos friendship, particularly in preparation for the Laos–Vietnam Friendship and Solidarity Year 2027, the 65th anniversary of diplomatic relations and the 50th anniversary of the Vietnam-Laos Treaty of Amity and Cooperation.
