Festival reinforces student solidarity in Italy

(VOV) -Large numbers of Vietnamese students in Italy are gathering at a three-day festival taking place at Rome-based Unicusano University from July 25-27.



The annual event, the third of its kind so far, was organized by the Vietnam Students’ Association in Italy (ASVI) with the assistance of the Vietnam Embassy and the Vietnamese Business Association in Italy.


At the opening festivities, Ambassador Nguyen Hoang Long hailed ASVI’s activities over the past years as a contribution to helping promote exchange and strengthen solidarity among Vietnamese students in Italy.



He also expressed his pleasure at fruitful education cooperation between the two countries. He noted that during a recent visit to Vietnam, Italian Prime Minister Matteo Renzi hoped the number of Vietnamese students in Italy would reach 1,000 in the next two years.


Long also took the occasion to raise funds in support of Vietnamese marine police, fishermen and surveillance forces who are making constant efforts in protecting the country’s sea and island sovereignty.


Since it began operations in August 2007, ASVI has launched numerous significant events for Vietnamese students in Italy and charitable programmes for needy people in the homeland.
