The online conference reviewing theoretical exchange and personnel training between two Parties, the Communist Party of Vietnam (CPV) and the Lao People’s Revolutionary Party (LPRP), for the 2016-2021 period and discussing collaboration orientations for the next 5 years, was held on Sep. 17.

According to VNA, the event was co-chaired by Director of the Ho Chi Minh National Academy of Politics and Chairman of the CPV Central Committee's Theory Council Nguyen Xuan Thang and head of the LPRP Central Committee’s Commission for Propaganda and Training and Chairman of the LPRP Central Committee’s Theory Council Khamphanh Pheuyavong.

Speaking at the event, Thang affirmed that theoretical exchange and personnel training hold significance to ties between the two Parties and States, as well as promoting the great friendship, comprehensive cooperation and special solidarity between the two countries.

The two Parties’ agencies worked closely together to prepare for seminars’ agenda, administrative procedures and reception. Their topics were chosen thoroughly and held theoretical and practical values to the two Parties and countries.

These events offer a chance for the Vietnamese and Lao Parties to discuss theoretical and practical issues in Party and political system building, contributing to improving the leadership and combat capacity of the Party in the new situation.

Opinions at the event affirmed the sound leadership, policies and guidelines of the two Parties and States, contributing to renewing perceptions and thoughts and further clarifying urgent theoretical and practical issues in the two countries’ renovation process.

During the 2016-2021 period, the two Parties successfully held training programmes for leadership and managerial officials in the Lao political system.

Thang also hailed a project to translate the Complete Works of President Ho Chi Minh from Vietnamese to Lao, contributing to spreading Ho Chi Minh Thought in Laos.

For his part, Pheuyavong said the event has become a mechanism in the process of theoretical exchange between the two Parties in the new context, contributing to strengthening the special cooperative ties between the Vietnamese and Lao Parties, States and people.

The Communist Party of Vietnam and the Lao People's Revolutionary Party held their first theoretical workshop in capital Hanoi in 2013 under the theme, "Practical and theoretical issues during renewal process in Vietnam and Laos."

It was held soon after the two countries concluded the Vietnam-Laos Friendship Year 2012 that marked the 50th anniversary of the Vietnam-Laos relations and the 35th anniversary of the Vietnam-Laos agreement on friendship and cooperation.

Theoretical work is critical to both parties and this time’s theoretical workshop allows them to share experience in international integration. The two countries constantly exchanging information and discussing specialised topics to shed light on pressing problems facing their countries.
