 Monday, August 26,2024

AsemconnectVietnam - The third Namaste Vietnam (Hello Vietnam) Festival opened in Ho Chi Minh City on August 25, which is one of activities to celebrate the 52nd anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between Vietnam and India (1972-2024).

The event was held by the Ho Chi Minh City Union of Friendship Organisations and the Consulate General of India in Ho Chi Minh City.
Speaking at the event, the Indian Consul General in Ho Chi Minh City, Madan Mohan Sethi, emphasised that the festival aims to bring the people of India and the people of Vietnam closer together.
Vietnam and India share the same motivation and aspiration for growth and development, he said, noting that the festival originally aimed to promote cultural connection, but now expands to the fields of business, tourism, railways and cinema.
He added that it is time for the people of India and Vietnam to optimise the opportunities brought by their friendship and partnership in areas of mutual interest.
Chairman of the Vietnam - India Friendship Association of Ho Chi Minh City Huynh Thanh Lap said activities in the festival are designed to help Vietnamese people learn more about Indian culture, people and country, contributing to enhance the two countries’ relations in general and the cooperation between Ho Chi Minh City and Indian localities in particular.
