“Laos gained full independence, sovereignty and territorial integrity and everyone is proud to have complete freedom and the right to develop their country as well as enjoy their lives. National Day is a time for Lao people to pay respect and homage to the revolutionary leaders, particularly President Kaysone Phomvihane who dedicated their lives for the good of their country and the well-being of all ethnicities. It is also a time for Laos to review its accomplishments and consider what needs to be done in the future.” https://www.vientianetimes.org.la/freeContent/FreeConten_Laos235.php
