Former Prime Minister of the Lao People’s Democratic Republic. Vientiane – Ho Chi Minh City Friendship High School is considered as one of the symbols of solidarity and cooperation between Vietnam and Laos in general, between Ho Chi Minh City and Vientiane in particular. It embeds the close friendship between the two countries through generations and also the pride of teachers and students.

Over the years, many generations of Laotian international students have returned to their home countries to work and hold important positions in governmental agencies, educational institutions and businesses in Laos, contributing greatly to the socio-economic development of Laos. Currently, there are about 14,000 Laotian international students studying in Vietnam at nearly 160 nationwide educational institutions in all majors offered by Vietnamese universities with diverse training programs such as short-term, language study, undergraduate, postgraduate, doctorate, specialized internship, etc. At NTTU, there are more than 200 Laotian international students majoring in different academic fields. In addition to the regular programs, international students in general, and Lao students in particular are also supported by NTTU with scholarships, accommodation, and extracurricular activities through cultural exchange programs, physical training and sports, celebration of traditional holidays such as Tet holiday, language clubs for international students to practice Vietnamese. This facilitates students to well-adapt and successfully complete their learning goals. Meanwhile, these supports can actively contribute to the training of high-quality human resources for the national development of Laos, hence further tightening the friendship between Vietnam and Laos.
