The contest initiated by NHK, the Japanese national broadcasting corporation, was held on August 26th in the northern province of Ninh Binh.
This year featured 19 teams from 18 countries including two from host Vietnam.
According to Luu Ngoc Anh, member of the contest organising board, the 2018 ABU Robobon’s concept is built on the Vietnamese folk game called “nem con” (shuttle-cock throwing) which requires high accuracy and skill.
This is the third time Vietnam has hosted the contest designed for technology students in the Asia-Pacific region./.
