Vietnamese association in Czech Republic marks its 20th anniversary
VTV.vn - The Vietnamese Association in the Czech Republic celebrated its 20th anniversary and received a second-class Order of Labour at a ceremony in Prague on Tuesday.

The ceremony was attended by Politburo member and permanent member of the Communist Party of Vietnam Central Committee's Secretariat Trần Quốc Vượng, and other high-ranking officials from Vietnam.

On behalf of President and General Secretary Nguyễn Phú Trọng, Vượng presented the second-class Order of Labour to the association and Chairman of the Union of Vietnamese Associations in Europe Hoàng Đình Thắng in recognition of their efforts to unite and support Vietnamese people living overseas.

Earlier the same day, the association held its 6th congress, which elected 98 new members to its executive committee.
