(HBO) – An exhibition on historic and legal evidence affirming Vietnam’s sovereignty over the Hoang Sa (Paracel) and Truong Sa (Spratly) archipelagos are underway in Lac Thuy district, Hoa Binh province.


Delegates and students take a look at maps and documents on Hoang Sa and Truong Sa archipelagos displayed at the exhibition.

 The event was held by the provincial Department of Information and Communications in collaboration with the People’s Committee of Lac Thuy district.

 On display are 171 ancient maps and documents on Hoang Sa and Truong Sa archipelagos which have been collected by Vietnamese and foreign researchers and scholars. They include ancient maps from China that clearly indicate Vietnam’s sovereignty over Hoang Sa and Truong Sa islands.

 Within the exhibition, talks on Vietnam’s marine sovereignty are held.

 Running from April 9-14, the event provides an opportunity for local people, particularly children and young people, to learn about these valuable documents and gives them a better understanding about the current situation in the East Sea and the desire of the country’s State and Party to maintain peace and stability in the region./.
