Spending considerable time viewing artefacts from Viet Nam as well as exhibits reflecting historical ties between Viet Nam and France, the PM expressed his deep impression at the museum’s rich and diverse collections, which vividly showcase the distinctive characteristics of world civilisations.
He also appreciated the museum’s efforts to preserve a wealth of artefacts that illustrate Viet Nam’s rich cultural identity and the long-standing relationship between the two countries, a history marked by both challenges and breakthroughs.
Emphasising that culture is an internal strength, a source of inspiration, and a driving force for generations in building, safeguarding, and developing the nation in a rapid, green, and sustainable manner, the PM highlighted the role of culture as a colourful and resonant thread that nurtures the friendship between the peoples of Viet Nam and France.
The Quai Branly – Jacques Chirac Museum is dedicated to showcasing indigenous art and cultures from Africa, Asia, the Americas, and Oceania. With around 9,500 artefacts on display, Viet Nam is among the Southeast Asian nations most prominently represented in the museum’s exhibitions.
