Association brings together Vietnamese youths, intellectuals in US

The 10th edition of a networking event marking its decade, hosted by the Association of Vietnamese Professionals and Students in the US, wrapped up on August 21.

Themed “10 years and beyond”, the three-day programme featured an array of activities, including a startup competition, a vocational workshop, football matches and art performances.  

At a recent gala, Vietnamese Ambassador Nguyen Quoc Dung congratulated the association on its achievements, especially in connecting Vietnamese youths and intellectuals in the US together who have served as a bridge promoting Vietnam – US comprehensive partnership.

The association was founded on June 1, 2013, and became a registered non-profit organisation in Massachusetts state on March 3, 2014.

It now groups more than 35,000 members throughout the US./.

Dung stressed that freedom of expression is an important value, but it must go hand in hand with responsibility, objectivity and a constructive spirit. Contributed ideas aimed at improving the country deserve appreciation, while extreme, ill-intentioned or hostile views do not reflect the shared aspiration to build and develop the nation.
