On January 8, General Secretary of the CPC Central Committee Xi Jinping telephoned Tong Lun to congratulate him on his re-election as General Secretary of the Lao People's Revolutionary Party Central Committee. In his congratulatory message, Xi Jinping said that since the 11th National Congress of the Lao Party, the Lao Party Central Committee has united and led the Lao people to actively explore the path of socialist development in line with the country's national conditions, overcome difficulties and forge ahead, and have achieved a series of important achievements in advancing party building, developing the economy, improving people's livelihood, and expanding foreign exchanges. The successful holding of the 12th National Congress of the Lao Party is of great significance for the development of the Lao Party and the cause of socialism in Laos. I hope that under the strong leadership of the Central Committee of the Lao Party, headed by Comrade General Secretary, the Lao Party and people will unite and continue to work hard to successfully complete the goals and tasks proposed by the 12th National Congress of the Lao Party, continue to create a new situation in the cause of socialism in Laos, and forge ahead courageously towards the goal of founding the Party for 100 years in 2055. China and Laos are socialist friendly neighbors with the same mountains and water. In recent years, thanks to the joint efforts of both sides, Sino-Lao relations have entered the best period in history. The strategic building of a common destiny between China and Laos has continued to deepen and become more practical, and a series of fruitful results have been achieved. In a new situation where the surrounding landscape is deeply linked to changes in the world, I would like to work with my comrade General Secretary to strengthen strategic guidance for the development of Sino-Lao relations, promote the traditional friendship between China and Laos, deepen the exchange of experience in governing the Party and the country, expand practical cooperation in various fields, promote the continuous progress of the common destiny of China and Laos towards high standards, high quality and high level goals, better benefit the peoples of the two countries, better serve the development of their respective socialist causes, and make new contributions to the peace, stability, development and prosperity of the region and the world at large.
