According to Tuan, in 2021, if the COVID-19 pandemic is fully controlled, the Ho Chi Minh Communist Youth Union is willing to coordinate with the Lao People's Revolutionary Youth Union to send delegations to Vietnam-Laos Youth Friendship Meeting, which will be held in Laos. The HCMC Communist Youth Union will also welcome 2 Laos family delegations to Vietnam.

"Following the footprints of Vietnamese and Laos leaders" event is proposed to be held for the second time in 2022 to introduce both countries' students to historical sites relating to the lives and revolution careers of each country's leader. If the pandemic is not yet under control by that time, exchange events for students in both countries will still be held online but on a greater scale.

On the field of staff training, both sides plan to open 2 training classes with 25 students per class in each year of 2021 and 2022. Base on the actual situation, the classes may be held either online or offline.
