Speaking at the event, deputy head of the General Logistics Department under the Vietnam People’s Army Le Hong Dung said the event is another demonstration of the solidarity and friendship between Vietnam and Laos.
For his part, eputy head of the General Logistics Department under the Laos People’s Army, Major General Khampheth Sisanon, spoke highly of the project’s effectiveness, saying that it will improve not only the expertise of Hospital 103’s staff, but also healthcare for local soldiers and residents.
He asked Hospital 103 to work closely with Hospital 108 to fully understand the system and recruit qualified staff to run it.
On the occasion, he conveyed sincere thanks to leaders of the Vietnamese Defence Ministry and General Logistics Department for offering timely and effective support to Laos.
