Question: The VNA’s 2022 safety video has received much applause from viewers. How are your feelings right now? Director Phuong Vu : I’m very happy.

Vietnam Airlines is the national airline; and this project is important because the video will be shown onboard on all VNA flights, so I face great pressure to implement this project. The previous editions of the video were produced by experienced directors. I am the youngest one yet, so that is also a great pressure for me.

Actually, I didn’t have any obvious inspiration at the beginning of the project....

The exhibition was part of activities within the framework of the forum on linking tourism development between the Central Key Economic Region and Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City. According to Deputy Director of Quang Ngai provincial Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism Bui Van Tien, Vietnam is a country with a coastline stretching from north to south, so it had a particularly important position in international trade. Therefore, many sea routes and ports in the coastal areas of Vietnam became the transhipment point of goods, as well as the stopping points for ships from many different countries. The historical documents and archaeological investigation results showed that trading ports have been developed since ancient times. Through the unearthed specimens, it can be confirmed that central Vietnam held an important position in Asia during the age of the Marine Silk Road. Several underwater archaeological excavations in the central waters of Vietnam have found many ancient wr...
