Exhibition on Vietnam's sovereignty over Hoang Sa, Truong Sa in Quang Ngai
09:07, 2014/07/02
Central Quang Ngai province on July 1 hosted an exhibition titled " Hoang Sa, Truong Sa belong to Vietnam- legal and historical documents."
On display were more than 100 photos, documents and maps, including the “Atlas Universel de Geographie” (World Atlas of Geography) composed by Philippe Vandermaelen published in 1827, a Belgium geologist and founder of the Belgium Royal Geographical Society, which proves Vietnam’s sovereignty over the islands .
Historical documents demonstrate that Vietnam asserted its sovereignty over the two archipelagoes long long ago, and that throughout the centuries, from days of feudal dynasties to the modern era, has continually exercised its dominion over them.
World Atlas of Geography is only one of the numerous global documents and maps that unequivocally indicate that China’s has never had, nor exercised any legitimate claim to the two islands throughout history.
Information and Communications Deputy Minister Truong Minh Tuan said the exhibition aims to honour our ancestors’ contributions to protecting sea and island sovereignty and to educating Vietnamese generations on Vietnam’s sovereignty over the two archipelagoes.
