HÀ NỘI — The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has called for those participating in the Việt Nam Days Abroad 2022 to strictly adhere to the coordination and operation mechanism to prevent mishaps overseas.

This declaration came after several scandals involving Vietnamese performers in other countries.

Trần Quốc Khánh, Deputy Director of the Department of Cultural Diplomacy & UNESCO Affairs, Ministry of Foreign Affairs, believes that problems can be found in even the most well-designed programmes.

In light of this, the organising committee has chosen recognised and qualified implementation partners to ensure that they maintain their reputations while overseas.

"We work based on a mechanism for tight collaboration and operation. Each programme has a coordinator and an executive director. Each unit is given a function, a task, and a defined duty commitment," he told e-newspaper Dân Trí.

Khánh added: "Fortunately, there have been no unpleasant situations relating to personnel travelling abroad as part of the programmes we undertake."

Trần Thanh Tùng, a representative of the unit conducting the art programme of this year's Việt Nam Day Abroad, stated that the Department of Cultural Diplomacy & UNESCO is ensuring the success of the performance.

"We prefer to partner with seasoned artists with knowledge and experience in touring and organising events for travel abroad. I believe that the close coordination of the participants will ensure the quality of art performance, the programme's content, and the artists' cultural behaviour when they go abroad," he said.

Việt Nam Days Abroad 2022 will be an intriguing combination of online and in-person promotional activities held in Austria, India, and South Korea to celebrate the anniversary of diplomatic ties between Việt Nam and these countries.

The Việt Nam Days in Austria 2022 will take place on September 28 and 29 in the capital city of Vienna, with Foreign Minister Bùi Thanh Sơn in attendance.

Minister Sơn will also unveil the Việt Nam Cultural Space and co-chair the 50th anniversary of Việt Nam-Austria diplomatic ties.

The programme will feature performances by artists from Austria and the Symphony Orchestra of the Việt Nam National Academy of Music.

The events of this year's Việt Nam Days in India will be held in New Delhi on November 3 and 4.

Among the many significant and novel events in economics, culture, and politics included in the programme is a special art show celebrating the 50th anniversary of diplomatic relations between two countries and the Việt Nam-India business forum.

Taking place in Seoul on the sidelines of the Vietnamese high-level Leader's official visit to South Korea from the end of November to the beginning of December, Việt Nam Days in Korea 2022 is a series of activities that aims to celebrate the 30th anniversary of diplomatic relations between the two countries.

Some highlights of Việt Nam Days in Korea 2022 are the ceremony of the 30th anniversary with the participation of high-level leaders of the two countries, business forum, movie exchange, and food exchange.

The programme recalls the 30-year journey of Việt Nam-South Korea diplomatic relations and, at the same time, introduces Vietnamese traditional art forms to the public in South Korea in Việt Nam Cultural Space. VNS
