Leaders of Asean countries have expressed great appreciation of the bloc’s efforts and cohesive solidarity in responding to the Covid-19 pandemic, with Laos calling for the urgent acquisition of supplies and vaccine to treat the disease.
The leaders made the assessment yesterday when they gathered for virtual talks at the 37th Asean Summit, under the chairmanship of Vietnam.
