The Vietnamese and Lao National Assenblies should continue their close collaboration, effectively conduct their regular cooperation mechanisms, step up cooperation in human resource training, enhance information exchange, share experiences, and coordinate in legislation, monitoring, and decision-making activities involving important national issues.
The two sides agreed to coordinate closely in organising the first high-level conference of the National Assemblies of Cambodia, Laos, and Vietnam in Laos in December 2023, as well as AIPA 2024 chaired by Laos.
On this occasion, Chairman Hue invited the Lao National Assembly to send a delegation to attend the 9th Global Conference of Young Parliamentarians to be held in Hanoi in September.
