Financed by Hanoi, the US$3-million project is a milestone in the traditional friendship between Hanoi and Vientiane.
Work on the complex commenced in August 2022. It covers an area of 2.5 hectares and consists of three buildings. Two are the headquarters of the Department of Justice and the Vientiane People's Procuracy, while the other is a shared facility.
Speaking at the inauguration ceremony, Hanoi Party leader Dinh Tien Dung said that Vietnam and Laos are two brothers who share the mighty Mekong River and the great Truong Son Mountains.
The two nations have a great history of close relations, he stated, adding: "Looking back at our achievements, we have every right to be proud of our loyal and unique relations."
He said the complex symbolizes the close relationship between Vietnam and Laos and is an important part of the 2022-2025 cooperation agreement between the two capitals.
"The complex is one of the projects that will help Vientiane complete its facilities to further develop its administrative organization," Dung said.
On the occasion, Secretary Dung hoped that Lao officials would make the best use of the facilities, remain creative and innovative, improve their performance, and make great contributions to the development of their nation and their capital.
He strongly believed that local officials would make greater achievements, and strive to develop a healthier, stronger, and closer relationship between Vietnam and Laos.
