On the morning of June 13, 2026, the Center for International Cooperation Development and Foreign Affairs Services under the Da Nang Department of Foreign Affairs organized a conference on legal awareness and skills for identifying, preventing, and combating cyber fraud for Lao students studying in Da Nang City.

The conference was held in coordination with the University of Education – The University of Da Nang. Attending the conference were Mr. Khanthaly Khamphilavong, First Secretary and Head of the Culture and Education Section of the Consulate General of the Lao People's Democratic Republic in Da Nang; Mr. Tran Hieu, Secretary of the Party Cell and Director of the Center for International Cooperation Development and Foreign Affairs Services under the Da Nang Department of Foreign Affairs; representatives of the Cybersecurity and High-Tech Crime Prevention Division of the Da Nang City Police; leaders of member universities under The University of Da Nang; and nearly 400 Lao students studying in the city.

At the conference, speakers from the Cybersecurity and High-Tech Crime Prevention Division of the Da Nang City Police provided practical information on the current situation of cyber fraud, common fraudulent schemes and tactics, relevant legal regulations, and essential skills for protecting personal information and using social media safely, responsibly, and in compliance with the law.The conference was of great significance in enhancing legal awareness and equipping Lao students with self-protection skills, especially in the context of increasingly sophisticated and complex online scams that can affect students, including international students.

The event also contributed to strengthening cooperation among relevant agencies and institutions in supporting, managing, and accompanying Lao students throughout their studies and daily lives in Da Nang. At the same time, it helped foster a safe, friendly, and civilized learning environment while encouraging compliance with Vietnamese laws and regulations.

Through this activity, the Center for International Cooperation Development and Foreign Affairs Services hopes that each Lao student will become an active communicator, spreading legal knowledge and online safety skills throughout the Lao student community, thereby contributing to the strengthening of the special friendship and solidarity between Viet Nam and Laos.
