Sengnouane Xayalath, who is also Secretary of the Lao People’s
Revolutionary Party Central Committee Secretariat, expressed his delight at the
growing special solidarity between the two countries while appreciating the
enormous, timely and effective assistance Vietnam
has given to Laos
throughout history.
He briefed his host about recent
activities of the Lao NA, particularly the outcomes of its fifth session,
cooperation between the two parliaments, and the outcomes of the talks and
working sessions with representatives of the Vietnamese NA.
The Lao NA will coordinate closely
with its Vietnamese counterpart to effectively carry out the agreements reached
by leaders of the two Parties, countries and National Assemblies, he added.
General Secretary Trong welcomed
his guest’s visit, noting with satisfaction that the special solidarity has
been developing in a result-oriented manner in all spheres, an achievement
greatly contributed by the two NAs.
He spoke highly of the two
legislative agencies’ cooperation, asking them to enhance sharing information
and experience in making law, supervising and deciding important issues.
The Party leader also called on them to boost
examining and promoting ministries, sectors and localities’ implementation of
agreements between Vietnamese and Lao Parties, Governments and parliaments.
