Presenting a bouquet of fresh flowers, the delegation from Bolikhamxay Province expressed their profound gratitude and deep respect for the great ideology and exemplary life of President Ho Chi Minh— the genius leader of the Vietnamese revolution, a national liberation hero, and an outstanding cultural figure, who laid the foundation for the special solidarity between the two nations of Vietnam and Laos.

The delegation pledged to continue nurturing, strengthening and further developing the loyal and comprehensive friendship and cooperation between Vietnam and Laos for the benefit of both peoples, and for peace, stability, cooperation and development in the region and the world.

President Ho Chi Minh, along with Presidents Kaysone Phomvihane and Souphanouvong, established the special bond between the Communist Party of Vietnam and the Lao People's Revolutionary Party.

Generations of leaders and people from both countries have worked diligently to cultivate the loyal and unwavering friendship between the two Parties and nations, continuously striving for independence, freedom, peace and social progress.

The people of Vietnam and Laos have always stood side by side in their struggle for the liberation of both nations, as well as in the ongoing development of their respective countries.

Today, this special relationship of solidarity and comprehensive cooperation remains warm, strong and increasingly reinforced across all fields. The two Parties, the two States, and the people of both countries are united in their loyal and steadfast friendship./.
