VIENTIANE,MAY.(KPL) - Transnational crimes are continuously threatening political stability, economic stability and cultural development in the region and the world while the solution is not a single responsibility of any particular government but it is necessary for ASEAN to strengthen cooperation on efforts in tackling transnational crimes. The statement was made by Lao Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Public Security Thongbanh Sengaphone as chair of the 31st ASEAN Chiefs of Police (ASEANAPOL) Conference held in Vientiane Capital yesterday.
“The 31st ASEANAPOL Conference is held in a time where the region and international community are facing challenges namely the global economic crisis, natural disasters, climate change, the outbreak of deadly diseases. At the same time transnational crimes and terrorism are severely threatening the stability in the region and international community,” said Mr. Thongbanh.
