A seminar entitled ‘Ho Chi Minh Young Pioneer Organisation- 70 Years of Development’ was held in Hanoi on May 9.

The event recalled the organisation’s tradition and also brought the chance for participants to discuss how to improve its activities and children’s movement in the future.

A forum with the theme ‘The Pioneer’s Red Scarf’ was also held in Da Nang with the attendance by 200 pupils.

On the occasion, the Central Council of the Ho Chi Minh Young Pioneer Organisation has presented 37 prizes for a three month contest on composing songs about children and the organisation. The contest drew 300 entries from across the country.
