Laos is expected to use its ASEAN chairmanship year to promote its foreign policy and strengthen its socio-economic cooperation with countries around the world.
For the Lao PDR, the year 2024 is not only for its resumption of ASEAN Chairmanship but also for the launch of its Visit Laos Year 2024 which is a good opportunity to promote the country’s image and attract more foreign visitors, according to the vice premier.
