Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee Nguyen Van Thong visited the Nhot Lot Inter-sectoral Checkpoint on the Vietnam - Laos border.

The Nhot Lot inter-sectoral checkpoint was established in 2017, at an altitude of more than 1,800 meters above sea level, close to the Vietnam - Laos border and near landmark 390. To reach this location, after traveling dozens of kilometers from Muong Xen town (Ky Son), delegates had to walk nearly half a day, crossing many steep hills.

Officers and soldiers at the checkpoint strictly maintain a 24/7 duty regime to coordinate with Lao authorities to protect the border and landmarks; at the same time, protect the upstream forest. Recently, officers and soldiers at the checkpoint have also carried out the task of controlling the Covid-19 epidemic, and have done a good job of propaganda to raise vigilance for people in the border areas in protecting border sovereignty. The on-duty crews at the checkpoint are changed after 15 days of performing the task.
