In a related news, the French Embassy in Vietnam organized a training program on first aid techniques in case of accidents involving hazardous materials from October 30 to November 4.

30 Vietnamese firefighters, representatives of the Ministry of National Defense and Cambodian officers participated in the training, which was conducted in collaboration with the Public Security Ministry.

The training aims to help Vietnamese and Cambodian firefighters better cope with accidents in industrial zones or in the process of transporting chemicals. For three days, French experts shared their experiences with Vietnamese and Cambodian colleagues, introduced rescue techniques in case of accidents involving hazardous materials, before performing some accident simulation exercises, with the use of specialized vehicles.

Trainers and trainees discussed their experience of handling accidents that occurred in France, Europe or Asia, and the variability of risks associated with economic development or energy transition.

Vietnam and France have cooperated for many years in the field of civil security and this is the first time the two countries have cooperated on a specific topic. For this training, France mobilized three fire officers, from Lyon and New Caledonia. The training course is sponsored by the French Ministry of Europe and Foreign Affairs, Department of Security and Defense Cooperation (DCSD).

Image
Buon Ma Thuot not only has premium coffee with a unique delicious taste, but also many other famous delicacies such as wine, marinated chicken, fragrant rice tubes, and especially the excellent red vermicelli. Red vermicelli is a popular specialty of Dak Lak. Although there are some similarities with vermicelli in the South, the famous red vermicelli in the “capital of coffee” is very different. It has big, firm vermicelli, similar to Southern beef vermicelli but slightly better, about the size of a chopstick, chewy and crispy. Different from sophisticated dishes like pho in Hanoi, vermicelli with fish in Quy Nhon, bun bo Hue, or vermicelli in Can Tho, Ban Me red vermicelli is extremely rustic, strange, and especially delicious. At first glance, red vermicelli is quite similar to crab vermicelli, but this dish is made from pure crab meat, pureed pork and fat, vegetables, bean sprouts, and of course, boiled quail eggs.
