Screenings of films about President Ho Chi Minh’s revolutionary journey, “return-to-the-roots” excursions, documentary exhibitions, and sports festivals continuing the spirit of physical training… these are among the meaningful activities organized by the Vietnamese communities in Thailand, Laos, the Republic of Korea, and China to mark the 136th birth anniversary of President Ho Chi Minh (19 May 1890 - 19 May 2026).

On May 17, at the Higashihiroshima City General Welfare Center in Hiroshima Prefecture, Japan, the Consulate General of Vietnam in Fukuoka, in coordination with the Vietnamese Association in Central and Southern Japan, the Hiroshima-Vietnam Peace and Friendship Association, and the Vietnamese Youth and Student Association in Hiroshima, organized a program commemorating the 136th birth anniversary of President Ho Chi Minh under the theme “Diplomatic thought and contemporary values.”
