In its foreign policy of expanding co-operation with all countries around the world, Vietnam focuses on co-operation with Laos and Cambodia and is willing to help them develop, said President Nguyen Minh Triet.

President Triet received separately the Chief Judge of the Supreme People’s Court of Laos Khammy Sayavong and the Deputy Chief Judge of the Supreme Court of Cambodia Khim Ponn in Hanoi on September 10.

Recalling his visits to Laos and Cambodia last August, the President said he was pleased that Vietnam’s friendship and co-operation with the two neighbouring countries have been growing wonderfully following the visits exchanged at all levels.

He lauded the recent effective co-operation between the three countries’ judiciary sectors and asked them to clarify directions for their future co-operation, thus solidifying each country’s contribution to mutual development and tightening their close relationship.

The Lao and Cambodian officials praised Vietnam ’s renewal achievements and thanked the Vietnamese people for their wholehearted and effective assistance over past years.

They informed the host of the results of their working visits in Vietnam and expressed thanks to the Vietnam Supreme People’s Court for sharing experiences in judgment, judicial system management and reform, and human resource training.

The officials asserted that they will work together with Vietnam in prioritising co-operative activities for the development of each country’s judiciary sector and further strengthening their friendship and multifaceted co-operation. (VNA)
