(KPL) The government has pledged to impose rigorously examination to students who are going to learn in Vietnam and tends to examine behaviours and academic matters of students studying in the neighbouring country.
Minister to Prime Minister’s Office and Head of Government Secretariat, Mr. Cheuang Sombounkhan, said after attending the government’s monthly meeting in this month that the government is ready to send any students back to their homeland if they are found severe guilty of academic affairs and disciplines.
He said that the government’s monthly meeting discussed resolutions to wrong doings of the Lao students in Vietnam. The meeting also raised necessaries in increasing political ideological education for the Lao students in the neighbouring country.
It emphasised students would not been allowed to study in Vietnam or granted no special consideration if they did not pass appropriate examination and the sending of students to learn in Vietnam must be more centralised.
The cabinet also agreed to set up an ad hoc to supervise the Lao students at educational institutions in Vietnam.
According to a report on academic affairs and the management of the Lao students in Vietnam by the Ministry of Education, 3,638 students are learning in Vietnam in this academic year 2008-2009. The figures exclude those from the ministries of National Defence and Public Security.
The report also says that only one seventh or 540 students study on their own pay.
24 students were reportedly sent back to the country due to their study-related wrong doings so far this year.
