The contest was launched on April 4, attracting more than 1.4 million entrants across the country, with most of them being students, teachers, and farmers.
The organising board announced Le Phu Si Tien from Can Tho City as the contest winner.
Two second, three third, and ten consolation prizes were also awarded to other excellent contestants.
This year’s event recorded the highest number of contestants over the past five editions, illustrating people’s heightened attention to avoiding post-war bombs, and mine clearance.
According to the Ministry of Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs, nearly 5.6 million hectares, equivalent to 17.7% of Vietnam’s total area, are still contaminated with UXO as of the end of 2023.
Bombs, mines and UXO are still scattered in 63 provinces and cities. It is estimated that approximately 800,000 tonnes of explosives were left across the country after the wars.
