At the event, participants enjoyed music from the three regions of the country in a space decorated with pictures of the landscape in the northern, central, and southern regions.

Speaking at the event, Consul General of Vietnam in New South Wales, Queensland, and South Australia Nguyen Dang Thang reviewed the country's comprehensive development achievements in fields from socio-economic to politics, defense, security, and foreign affairs.

He highlighted that the year 2023 marked the two countries’ 50th anniversary of the establishment of their diplomatic relations with many high-level visits of Party and State leaders, and activities to promote cooperation in science, technology and innovation, trade, investment, and tourism. Overseas Vietnamese people in Australia have actively participated in and supported the organization of the Consulate General's activities, especially those to preserve Vietnamese culture, including the Vietnamese language.

Thang hoped that in 2024, the Consulate General would continue to receive support and companionship from overseas Vietnamese.

On this occasion, Thang awarded certificates of merit to 16 individuals and organizations for their outstanding achievements in fields and their contributions to the work of the Vietnamese community in Australia.
