The Vietnamese Embassy in Venezuela and the National Experimental Polytechnic University of the Armed Forces (UNEFA) of the Latin American country held a ceremony on May 26 to wrap up a cooking class and a “non la” (Vietnamese conical hat) dance class at the school, VNA reported.

In his remarks, Vietnamese Ambassador Vu Trung My thanked the Venezuelan Ministry of Defence and UNEFA for opening the cooking and “non la” dance classes.

Presenting the certificate and emphasising the significance of the course at the closing ceremony, the ambassador emphasised that this is a meaningful activity in the series of celebrating the 133rd birthday of President Ho Chi Minh.

He congratulated the learners on completing the courses and expressed his hope that they will help introduce the typical dishes and the iconic “non la” dance of Vietnam to Venezuelan people.
