In his remarks at the hand-over ceremony on February 28, Lieutenant Colonel Hoang Trung Son, deputy head of the team, emphasised the special Viet Nam-Laos relationship, saying the facilities will contribute to consolidating the friendship.
They are also expected to improve the living standards of locals while enhancing resources for national defence and security of the two countries along the border, he added.
