Vietnamese, Lao and Cambodian Youth Representatives Discuss Closer Ties in Quang Ngai

On the morning of November 10, 2026, as part of the 2026 Vietnam–Cambodia–Laos Youth Festival, youth representatives from the three countries held a forum in Quang Ngai, Vietnam, to discuss innovation in youth organization work and connections among young people in the three countries. The forum was organized by the Central Committee of the Ho Chi Minh Communist Youth Union in coordination with relevant parties.

The forum covered two topics: improving the content and methods of youth organizations’ activities and the effectiveness of youth work; and strengthening the capabilities of youth organization officials and connections among young people in the three countries. Vietnamese representatives described using virtual reality applications for educational activities and developing digital museums. Lao and Cambodian representatives shared their experiences in engaging young people in learning, entrepreneurship, innovation and digital transformation.

On cooperation among young people in the three countries, Vietnamese representatives proposed establishing a contact network for youth organization officials, holding different forms of exchanges for students, young entrepreneurs and young people in border areas, and incorporating the history of relations among the three countries into relevant youth activities. Lao and Cambodian representatives also proposed expanding cultural, sports and international volunteer exchanges. Youth organizations in the three countries will study these proposals and coordinate their implementation.

After the forum, youth representatives from the three countries learned about a model for youth participation in local tourism and economic development in Quang Ngai. They also visited children facing hardship at the Quang Ngai Provincial Social Work Center and gave them gifts.
