The final of the 13th "Chinese Bridge" Chinese proficiency competition for middle school students in Laos had been held online from July 10 to July 13, the Chinese Embassy to Laos told Xinhua Thursday.

The competition, co-hosted by the Chinese Embassy to Laos and the Liaobei School, a Chinese school in Muang Xay, and several Chinese schools, was themed with "Chasing Chinese Dreams, Seize the Day."

With the guidance and support from the Chinese embassy, the contest, overcoming the unfavorable internet conditions, was carried out through live video and video clips to ensure order and fairness, a press release from the Chinese embassy said, adding that the contestants had shown their full enthusiasm.

Altogether 15 middle school students from seven Chinese schools in Laos competed through speech, knowledge quiz and talent show, demonstrating their Chinese language skill and understanding of the Chinese culture.

The winner of the contest, Wang Yanqi from Vientiane's Liewtou Chinese school, will represent the Lao middle school students to compete in the "Chinese Bridge" semi-final and final contests.
