The host expressed confidence that under General Secretary Sisoulith's leadership, the Lao People's Revolutionary Party will successfully realise the resolution of the 11th National Party Congress, effectively hold Party congresses at all levels leading up to the 12th National Party Congress, and excel in its role as the Chair of ASEAN and AIPA in 2024.

General Secretary Sisoulith conveyed profound condolences and sorrow from the Lao Party, State, National Assembly, Government, and the Lao Front for National Development to their Vietnamese counterparts. He highlighted the tremendous contributions of General Secretary Trong to the Lao revolution and the Laos-Vietnam friendship. He reminisced about his meetings with the late Vietnamese leader, stressing that his passing is a tremendous loss not only for the Vietnamese Party, State, and people but also for their Lao counterparts.
