The event, themed “Vietnam with bright future”, is scheduled to take place in Hanoi on February 7 (the 22nd day of the 12th lunar month).

Many Vietnamese artists in foreign countries will perform at the event alongside domestic artists, Nam added.

“In each of our overseas business trips, we have sensed the Overseas Vietnamese’s confidence in the development of the homeland as well as their pride of the homeland’s growing role and position in the world arena,” he said.

“This year’s theme meets the Overseas Vietnamese’s aspirations for Vietnam to build a bright future and these expats showed they stand ready to join hands in building a bright future for the homeland,” he noted.

There are approximately 4.5 million Vietnamese living and working in 103 countries and territories worldwide. They form an indispensable part of the nation and play an important role in intensifying friendship and cooperation between Vietnam and the rest of the world.
