Ministry needs to strive further in cooperation efforts
Despite the significant achievements which have been made in international cooperation, the Ministry of Information, Culture and Tourism needs to exert greater efforts in furthering its diplomatic endeavours. This was the call made at a meeting of the ministry held last Friday to review its activities in international cooperation over the past year, and disseminate the plan for this year. As Laos was the chair of ASEAN in 2016, the most important responsibility of the ministry was hosting the 15th ASEAN Socio-Cultural Community Council meeting, where three important documents were endorsed, which were also signed by ASEAN leaders at the 28th and 29th ASEAN Summits.
