(KPL) President Choummaly Sayasone on April 11 took around an hour at his office in Vientiane to deliver Lao New Year 2555 speech expressing best wishes for all Laotians across the country on the occasion of celebrating Year of Dragon.

"Today, I am very happy to extend wishes to the Lao people through the National Television of Laos and Lao media channels. Annually, the Lao people, wherever they are, celebrate the Lao New Year, the tradition that has been practiced since time immemorial,'" said in his speech President Choummaly Sayasone.

President Choummaly highlighted the achievements of the 9th Party Congress and the Seventh five-year national socio-economic development plan in 2011.

"Last year, milestone events took place in the country; most significantly is the meeting on political grassroots building and integrated rural development for poverty reduction. Which is an important political event for encouraging the participation of the party, government and all ethnic people as well as business community in the national protection and construction with a spirit of patriotism and development," said the President.

"At this meeting we learned model business establishments of various occupation sectors, enterprises, companies, factories, individuals and families that actively contributed to the socio-economic development, thus the constant growth of the economy, resulting in gradually better living condition of the ethnic people."

Secretary Choummaly Sayasone urged all the Lao people especially Vientiane residents to participate in ensuring the achievement of the Asia-Europe Meeting Summit to be held by the end of this year in Vientiane.

He touched upon climate-change related events in the country including floods which suffered several provinces and the attention paid to the disaster by Party and government as well as administrations in provinces and people of all strata in the society, and assistance extended by international organisations for restoration efforts in the country.

The Secretary General of the Party briefed peace, independent friendship and steady cooperation policy of the Party and Government, claiming the policy created sound environment for the cause of peace, stability and cooperation and, as a result, the role and influence of the Lao PDR was raised to higher levels at international and global arenas.
