Your Excellency,
On behalf of the Government and people of Brunei Darussalam, I would like to extend my warmest congratulations to you and the Government and people of the Lao People's Democratic Republic on the occasion of your 47th National Day.
I and Duli Raja Isteri were pleased to receive you, Madam Naly and your family in Brunei Darussalam last October during the State Visit, where we reaffirmed the close and long-standing relations between our two countries.
As we commemorate the 30th Anniversary of the Establishment of Diplomatic Relations next year, I look forward to working closely with you to further enhance these meaningful ties for the mutual benefit of our countries and people.
With my kindest regards and very best wishes to you, Madam Naly and your family for continued good health and happiness, as well as the continued prosperity and peace of the Lao People's Democratic Republic.
SULTAN HAJI HASSANAL BOLKIAH
