The campaign is held amid the 55th anniversary of Vietnam-Laos diplomatic ties, 40 years of the signing of the countries’ Treaty of Friendship and Cooperation, and 20 years of the singing of a cooperation and friendship agreement between the Hanoi CYU Committee and the Vientiane municipal committee of the Lao People’s Revolutionary Youth Union.
The 40 volunteers are doctors, nurses, experts in livestock farming and outstanding university students in Hanoi. During the 10-day campaign in Sikhottabong district of Vientiane, they are set to give free medical check-ups and medicine to 1,500 people, instruct locals to prevent diseases and accidents, and transfer livestock farming techniques.
They will also visit disadvantaged families, take part in cultural and sports activities with local residents, and present computers and learning and sports equipment to young people in Vientiane.
This is the 10th straight year the Hanoi CYU Committee and the Hanoi Youth Federation have organised voluntary activities in Vientiane, aiming to foster exchanges and bilateral cooperation in various spheres.
On 2008, thirty young Hanoians had joined a 10-day exchange program, which will run through July 19 in Laos’ capital city of Vientiane. As part of the program, young Vietnamese and Lao volunteers have conducted a number of activities in a district close to Vientiane, including providing local people with medical examination and treatment and helping them in sanitary works.
Young Hanoian volunteers also visited and presented gifts to the Nguyen Du School, founded by the Society of Vietnamese Nationals in Vientiane, where children of both countries are being taught the Vietnamese language.
