In his remarks, Chairman of the Gia Lai provincial People’s Committee Pham Anh Tuan said the Vietnam–Laos relationship was cultivated by President Ho Chi Minh, President Kaysone Phomvihane and President Suphanuvong, along with generations of leaders of both countries, and has continued to be strengthened and developed.

Built on trust and close ties, cooperation between Gia Lai and the southern Lao provinces has delivered practical results in education and training, healthcare, agriculture, trade and investment, science and technology, and people-to-people exchanges.

Economic, trade and investment cooperation has gradually expanded, with cross-border trade growing more active, contributing to socio-economic development and improving living standards on both sides.

At the signing ceremony, representatives of the four Lao provinces expressed their appreciation for Gia Lai’s support in recent years, saying the close ties have contributed greatly to socio-economic development and political security in the region. They affirmed that cooperation will be further expanded across sectors, helping deepen ties between Gia Lai and the four southern Lao localities and contributing to the broader Vietnam-Laos relationship.

Leaders of both sides agreed to step up trade connectivity, develop logistics, and cooperation in agriculture, education, healthcare, culture and tourism, while coordinating closely to ensure national defence and security and maintain stability along the peaceful and friendly border.

On the occasion, the Department of Agriculture and Environment of Sekong province and PISICO Binh Dinh Corporation signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU).

Under the MoU, the parties will establish coordination and support in research, surveys and the exploration of investment opportunities, focusing on industrial and agricultural crops, the development of large timber trees, the supply of plant varieties in project areas, and studying investment in mineral exploitation.
