The UAE Embassy also extended heartfelt congratulations and appreciation to the entire Vietnamese team, coaches, and sports authorities for their continuous efforts and contributions to the development of Vietnamese sports and the friendship between the two nations.

Since its founding in 1971, the UAE has placed great emphasis on sports development as an integral part of its national strategy for human and social progress. With world-class infrastructure, advanced training centers, and prestigious international events such as the Dubai Duty Free Tennis Championships and the Abu Dhabi Formula 1 Grand Prix, the UAE continues to affirm its position as a global hub for sports.

In the UAE, sports have become an essential part of daily life. The UAE Government continues to invest heavily in nurturing young talent, expanding community sports programs, and promoting an active and healthy lifestyle across society.

This exchange event not only celebrates the success of the Vietnam Youth Muay Thai Team but also stands as a testament to the strong partnership and deepening friendship between the UAE and Vietnam — especially in the fields of sports and culture.

The UAE Embassy in Hanoi reaffirms its commitment to further strengthening cooperation with Vietnamese authorities to promote more cultural and sports exchange activities in the future.

“With the growing number of sporting and cultural exchange activities between Vietnam and the UAE, we sincerely hope to continue receiving the attention, support, and companionship of the UAE Embassy in Vietnam in the time ahead, so that together, we can further promote exchanges, cooperation, and stronger bonds between the youth of our two countries through sports and culture.”
