They complimented Vietnam for its helpful, honest, and beneficial aid to Laos throughout the country's struggle for national liberation, following efforts at rehabilitation and development, and continued education and training of its human resources.

The hosts had high hopes that the two academies would continue to increase the effectiveness of personnel training in Laos and contribute to the modernization efforts of both nations by exchanging and exploring fresh information and ideas.
During the Vietnam-Laos Year of Solidarity and Friendship, both countries made a commitment to work together to promote and pass on the tradition of bilateral special solidarity to future generations, enhance the effectiveness of bilateral cooperation mechanisms in a variety of fields, and carry out the agreements made by the leaders of the two Parties and countries.
