China, Vietnam and the Laos defined tri-junction point of
national boundaries in Beijing Tuesday, which lies on the Shiceng
Dashan Mountain, said the Chinese Foreign Ministry.
Wu Dawei, Vu Dung and Ponsavath Boupha, vice foreign ministers
of the above three countries, on behalf of each government, signed
a treaty on definition of the tri-junction point of the national
boundaries in Beijing.
The tri-junction point, according to the ministry, is a place
"where the peoples in the three countries can hear the crow of the
same cock," indicating that peoples from the three countries live
in harmony.
The ministry said signing the treaty is very important for the
stability and development of the boundary areas.
Wu also held bilateral talks with Vu Dung and Ponsavath Boupha
respectively, exchanging views on issues of common concern
frankly.
