The delegation held a working session with the Houaphanh provincial Party Committee led by its Vice Secretary Khamvone Bunthavon who is also Chairman of the provincial People’s Council. At the meeting, leaders of the two provinces shared the two sides’ socio-economic development.

On behalf of Hoa Binh’s leaders, Ninh extended Bunpimay greetings to leaders and people of Houaphanh province while briefing the host on the socio-economic development of Hoa Binh in 2017.

He also affirmed Hoa Binh province’s wish that the two localities will continue enhancing the traditional relations in the direction of increasing practical socio-economic cooperation activities to benefit both sides’ development, such as education and training cooperation, building of tourism tours and routes and restoration of historical relics, among others.

For his part, Khamvone Bunthavon thanked the support of Hoa Binh’s authorities throughout Houaphanh’s development process, especially in this year’s Bunpimay festival. He reported that Houaphanh gained many significant results in socio-economic development in 2017, with economic growth reaching 8.65 percent and per capita income averaging 1,031 USD per year.

The Lao province has focused on infrastructure development, particularly the road linking Sam Neua city of Laos with Vietnam’s border gates in Thanh Hoa and Nghe An. The Houaphanh leader voiced his hope that the two provinces will continue deepening friendship and Hoa Binh will support Houaphanh’s socio-economic development, especially by creating favourable conditions for businesses of the two provinces to build tourism tours connecting Hoa Binh and Houaphanh.

After the working session, the Hoa Binh delegation and Houaphanh leaders joined the thread-tying and water splashing rites in Sam Neua, which are traditional customs of Laos for Bunpimay.

During the visit, the delegation toured some historical relics in Houaphanh and Xiangkhouang provinces with a view to helping Hoa Binh’s businesses sign and form tourism routes with the Lao provinces in the coming time./.
