The event aims to create a venue for Vietnamese and Korean students to boost solidarity and popularise the image of the Vietnamese land, people, and culture to international friends, especially those from the RoK.

Vietnamese Ambassador to the RoK Pham Huu Chi spoke highly of the association’s achievements, with over 5,000 Vietnamese students in Korea enthusiastically participating in learning movements, research, sports, and cultural exchanges.

He said that the Navy High Command presented a certificate of merit to the Vietnamese community in the RoK in recognition of their contributions to safeguarding Vietnam’s sovereignty over seas and islands.
