on the 75th anniversary of  National Day 

Over the past 75 years since the birth of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam, now known as the Socialist Republic of Vietnam, the Communist Party of Vietnam has achieved many great victories.

Through the clear-sighted leadership of President Ho Chi Minh, the Vietnamese people have not only gained national independence, but have also been able to increasingly assert their position among the region and the wider world. At present, the country’s economy is developing by leaps and bounds, coupled with improved living standards and consistent political security.

Recent years has seen Vietnamese development closely associated with the special solidarity relationship that exists with Laos. During the process of national construction and defence, that relationship has been constantly cultivated, as demonstrated through various acts of political co-operation, defence, security, investment, education, and training, along with joint efforts in other areas.
