Addressing at the handover ceremony in Vientiane, Ms. Trinh Thi Tam from the Vietnamese Embassy in Laos said despite COVID-19 spreading around the globe, thanks to its Government and people’s resolve, Vietnam has been assessed as one of the countries containing this outbreak well.

According to Vietnam News Agency, although both countries have managed to curb the coronavirus outbreak, the pandemic remains complex in the world. The gift, offered by the Vietnamese Government, is to help the Vietnamese community in Laos with the pandemic combat as well as it reflects the homeland’s attention and sentiment towards the overseas Vietnamese, she emphasized.

Appreciating the support from the Party, State, Government, and people in the homeland, Vice Chairman of the General Association of Vietnamese People in Laos Pham Van Hung said the masks will be distributed to all Vietnamese in the country.

He affirmed that they will work harder to become more united and stand side by side with compatriots in the homeland in the COVID-19 combat, while intensifying the Vietnam-Laos friendship and solidarity./.
