During the three days from September 2 to 4, the Vietnam booth organised by Nhan Dan (People) Newspaper at the Portuguese Communist Party (PCP)’s 46th Avante Festival attracted the attention of many locals and international friends.
The booth about Vietnam, organised by Nhan Dan Newspaper, stood out in the international area at Avante Press Festival 2022.
Antonia, who has participated in the movement to support Vietnam since the 1960s, is very interested in Vietnam. He is aware that Nhan Dan Newspaper is the voice of the Party, State and people of Vietnam. According to him, the publications of Nhan Dan Newspaper are very attractive in terms of presentation.
Antonia explained to young people about the heroics and resilience of Vietnam, where President Ho Chi Minh’s hometown can be found. President Ho Chi Minh is a person that he and many other people in Portugal have great admiration for.
Two young members of the PCP, Jose Constante and Carla Cerqueira, were delighted to be presented with historian Alain Ruscio's book on President Ho Chi Minh, to learn more about the great leader of the Vietnamese people.
Dr. Carolus Wimmer, President of the Venezuela-Vietnam Friendship Association, was very impressed with the pictures, documents and books introduced about Vietnam. As a person who always follows and supports Vietnam, he is happy to see that Vietnam is becoming increasingly innovative and has an important role and position in the international arena.
Books, photos, documents and press publications displayed at Avante Press Festival help Portuguese people and international friends gain more information about the Communist Party of Vietnam as well as the country and the people of Vietnam.
