The Lao students will come back to training facilities in the central city of Thua Thien-Hue, the southern province of Dong Nai and Hanoi to continue their study.

According to Quang Tri authorities, the province has recorded seven Covid-19 patients with thousands of people defined to have had close contact with the patients. The province is facing difficulties in ensuring quarantine conditions.

The province has asked Thua Thien-Hue Province which accounts for the highest number of Lao students to prepare Covid-19 prevention quarantine facilities to receive them. The two provinces are quite near from each other.

Meanwhile, the remainder of 23 students, with six due to go to Hanoi and 16 others for Dong Nai, will be isolated in Quang Tri as the number is low and the distance from Quang Tri to the two localities is quite far.

The Quang Tri Department of Foreign Affairs has been assigned to work with the Vietnamese Consulate General in Laos and Lao concerned agencies to arrange suitable time to take Lao students to return to Vietnam in line with Covid-19 prevention regulations. Dtinews
