On 25 June 2018, the Bank for Investment and Development of Vietnam JSC (BIDV) collaborated with Sekong Department of Education to hold a ground-breaking ceremony for the construction of Dakcheun High School in the district of Dakcheung, Sekong province, Laos.

​Deputy Chief of Sekong province, deputy head of the office of the President of Laos, Deputy Minister of Education and Sports of Laos, representatives of the Vietnam-Laos Inter-government Cooperation Committee and general consulate of Vietnam in Champsak were in attendance.

The Dakcheun High School project, featuring 2 stories with six classrooms and six laboratories, function rooms, library, ballroom and sports area, among others, costs USD1 million which is wholly sponsored by BIDV. The school is expected to provide a modern learning and teaching environment for teachers and students there.

BIDV is Vietnam’s first commercial bank to be present in Laos. After 19 years of operation in the country, the bank has embedded its branding into the minds of the people of Laos with three commercial presences in the country including Lao-Viet Joint Venture Bank (LVB), Lao-Viet Insurance Company (LVI) and BIDV Representative Office.

In addition to fulfilling the role of bridging the two economies, BIDV has contributed responsibly and actively to the economic development of Laos, helping foster the special friendly relations between the two countries.
