Mr. Nguyen Dai Hung Loc, Vice President of the Ho Chi Minh City Stamp Association and the owner of the stamp collection on President Ho Chi Minh, shared that many of the stamps displayed at the exhibition were acquired through global stamp auctions.
The exhibition aims to reflect on the historical milestones of President Ho Chi Minh’s life, closely tied to the revolutionary movement for national liberation, the fight for independence, and the defense of Vietnam’s sovereignty and unity.
