Back in Ha Noi, a series of activities were held nationwide to celebrate the 70th anniversary of the August Revolution (19 August 1945) and Independence Day of  Việt Nam (2 September 1945). One of the major ceremonies during the celebration was the incense offerings at President Ho Chi Minh’s Mausoleum and on the Monument of Heroic Martyrs by top leaders and former leaders to commemorate the heroes who sacrificed their lives for National Independence and Reunification.

In The Hague, H.E. Ambassador Nguyễn Văn Đoàn, Head of the Socialist Republic of Việt Nam to The Netherlands and the OPCW, invited fellow ambassadors, diplomats, Dutch officials and friends to celebrate this joyful occasion. Countless guest responded and made their way to World Hotel Bel Air on Thursday 10 September 2015. 

In his welcome address Ambassador Nguyễn Văn Đoàn thanked those present. He further expounded on the economical situation of Việt Nam: “The country has come from a long way, is doing economically well. Việt Nam is making headway”. The Ambassador also made reference to the long established relationship between Việt Nam and the Netherlands.
