(KPL/VNA) A delegation of Hanoi led by Tran Sy Thanh, member of the Party Central Committee, Chairman of the Hanoi People's Committee, has separate meetings with leaders of Vientiane capital, Laos.

The Hanoi delegation was in Laos from September 17-19 for the Meeting of Governors and Mayors of ASEAN Capitals (MGMAC) and the ASEAN Mayors Forum (AMF) 2024 and a working visit to Vientiane.

Receiving the Hanoi delegation, Secretary of the Lao People's Revolutionary Party (LPRP) Central Committee, and Secretary of the Party Committee and Chairman of the People’s Council of Vientiane Anouphap Tounalom affirmed that the delegation's visit would contribute to fostering the great friendship, special solidarity, and comprehensive cooperation between the two capitals in particular and the two countries in general.

He added that the visit is of great significance as the Vientiane Party Committee is focusing on implementing the Resolution of the 11th National Party Congress and the Resolution of the 17th Party Congress of the capital city.

He briefed the guests of outstanding results of the city’s Party organisation-related activities, political, socio-economic development and the implementation of a national programme addressing economic and financial issues to promote industrial production and handicrafts, generate revenue and boost domestic production as well as improve the quality of goods.

He hoped for the two sides' closer, substantive cooperation, towards a comprehensive cooperative relationship, and a model in locality-to-locality cooperation between Laos and Vietnam.

Thanh highlighted the Hanoi-Vientiane relationship's unceasing development, saying the Memorandum of Understanding on cooperation between the Party Committees and administrations of Hanoi and Vientiane for the 2022-2025 period has been implemented effectively with their nine specialised agencies engaging in cooperation and exchanges.

The Hanoi leader said that Vietnam in general, and Hanoi in particular, always wish to promote cooperation with the Party, the State of Laos and the capital Vientiane in all fields.

Hanoi will continue to pay attention and give priority to strengthening cooperation with Vientiane, contributing to the two capitals' development.

The Hanoi delegation also had a meeting with its Vientiane counterpart and Mayor of Vientiane Atsaphangthong Siphandone, during which they informed each other about the socio-economic development of the two capital cities, and exchanged experience in building and developing Hanoi and Vientiane.

Recent initiatives and programs in this field, along with their significance, have drawn increasing public attention. With its history of colonization and civil war, the country has come to recognize the importance of peace on a profound level. Against this backdrop, the government and higher education institutions have identified peace education for young people as a national priority.
