The CLV parliamentary summit has been upgraded from the conference of committees of the three legislatures. The establishment of the mechanism is to strengthen and consolidate friendship, close solidarity and comprehensive cooperation, focusing on socio-economic development, defense-security cooperation, and people-to-people exchanges for sustainable development of the three countries and of the region, according to the joint statement.

Vietnam defeat Laos 2-0 in 2023 SE Asian Games men’s football

The Vietnamese, who won the gold medal in men’s football at the delayed 2021 SE Asian Games organized in Hanoi in May 2022, were expected to have an easy game, but they faced strong resistance from their Lao opponents and sometimes stayed in a deadlock at Prince Stadium in Phnom Penh. The junior Golden Stars got off to a great start in the second minute when Nguyen Van Tung headed the ball past Lao goalkeeper Solasak Thilavong into the net, following a good cross from Nguyen Thanh Nhan from the right side. With the early lead, coach Philippe Troussier’s team tried to reduce the match’s tempo, but moments of sloppy defending gave Laos some good chances.
