VIENTIANE, July 14 (Xinhua) -- The prime minister of Laos has called on the country's regulatory authorities to improve management of social media for constructive and ethical use as a "global library and knowledge hub" for the benefit of the nation and its youth, local media reported Thursday.
Sharing of information and points of view among social media would help reduce misunderstandings and arguments among members of the public if conducted in a constructive and ethical manner, Lao News Agency KPL quoted the country's Prime Minister Thongloun Sisoulith as saying.
