Visitors at the exhibition
Themed ‘Vietnam’s Hoang Sa and Truong Sa:
Historical and legal evidence’, the exhibition introduces visitors to nearly
500 maps, historical documents, and photos of Vietnam’s sovereignty over the
two archipelagos.
Works on display also include photos of the culture,
land, and people of ASEAN member countries, as well as ethnic groups in
Vietnam, in particular.
The exhibition aims to increase awareness of
Vietnam’s sovereignty over its seas and islands among local people, especially
younger generations, thus fueling patriotism and their higher sense of
responsibility for national protection.
The event is jointly held by the Cao Bang
Provincial Department of Information and Communication, the Provincial
Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism, and the Provincial People’s
Committee. It will be open to the public until September 23 at Cao Bang City’s
flower garden.
