The renewed MoU builds on the enduring friendship between Laos and Cuba and continues bilateral cooperation in sports, physical education and arts education. It also establishes a framework for the exchange of knowledge, technical expertise and consultations in other mutually agreed areas, further enhancing cooperation and mutual understanding between the two governments.

Cuba has been a longstanding partner in supporting Laos’ human resource development. Over the years, it has awarded scholarships to Lao students to study sports and physical education, as well as Spanish, medicine and law. These educational opportunities have helped strengthen the country’s professional capacity across a range of sectors.

An ongoing exchange of experts will create a data-base of legal understanding amongst the masses upon how the legal sector is organized and how it works and functions! This will involve lessons on organization and arranging seminars – as well as how to facilitate practical training in the classroom (and other similar activities). This approach is based on the principle of mutual benefit – which will also improve the standards of professional education and training for all legal staff (and other professionals).
