During their quarantine time, they were cared very well by local authorities. The medical staff and police in the facility took care of them like family members.

La Ty and Sing Sai, students of Hue University of Medicine and Pharmacy, expressed their gratitude to the Vietnamese police and military officers who worked at the Vietnam-Laos shared border provided good care and sentiment for them when they crossed the border. Many Lao students found it hard to communicate when they first came to Vietnam, however, some Laos Vietnamese veterans volunteered to teach them Vietnamese language, history and culture, helping them quickly adapt to the new studying and living environment.

Local families of Laos Vietnamese veterans volunteered to take care of 71 Lao students studying in Hue, said Nguyen Duc Thuan, Chairman of the Laos Veterans Friendship Association.

Over the past 2 years, the armed forces in Thua Thien-Hue have provided big support and assistance for the Lao community in general and Lao students in particular.

In addition to taking good care of the Lao students, the police and military forces in Thua Thien-Hue also supported Lao armed forces in border localities to build office buildings.
