On August 24, 2019, the People's Liberation Army (PLA), as part of medical assistance provided to Laos under Peace Train-2019, a PLA medical team traveled to the Sanamxay district of the Attapeu Province in southern Laos to provide medical services to the local people (see linked Record ID#88686). The district had been the site of severe flooding in July 2018, which the PLA provided medical assistance for (see Record ID#65394).
