This is a chance to showcase Vietnamese journalism products, and for the journalists of the 2 countries to exchange information and find ways to collaborate. Vietnam’s 20,000 journalists have not only promoted Vietnamese culture in Laos, but also portrayed images of Laos to the Vietnamese public.

He also showed gratitude for Vietnam’s support in training and assisting Laotian journalists and media personnel.
