An exhibition affirming Vietnam’s sovereignty over Hoang Sa (Paracel) and Truong Sa (Spratly) archipelagos opened at the University of Social Sciences and Humanities -VNU Ho Chi Minh city on September 11th.
The event entitled “Hoang Sa, Truong Sa of Vietnam: Historical and legal evidence” is co-organised by the Ministry of Information and Communications and the Vietnam National University (VNU-HCM city).
Accordingly, documents, maps, images and items which were published by Vietnamese and international scholars, asserting Vietnam’s sovereignty over Hoang Sa and Truong Sa archipelagos are on display.
Hoang Minh Phuong, an official from the ministry, said Vietnam’s sea and islands are an inseparable part of the country, adding the exhibition is part of activities to raise awareness and responsibility of students and staff of the university in national construction and defence.
He also highlighted that communication campaigns on sea and islands over the time have greatly contributed to the country’s sovereignty on the East Sea, especially over the two archipelagos.
The exhibition will run until September 13th.
