Hoang Sa, Truong Sa exhibition opens in Haiphong
Vna/Hanoitimes 09:56, 2014/06/22
An exhibition of historical evidence proving Vietnam’s sovereignty over Hoang Sa (Paracel) and Truong Sa (Spratly) archipelagos opened in the northern port city of Haiphong.
On display is a series of maps, atlases and documents in traditional Chinese, French and Vietnamese languages issued by Vietnamese states and the Chinese people under the Qing dynasty from the 15th to the 20th centuries.

All affirm Vietnam’s sovereignty over these islands and indicate the fact that these islands have never historically belonged to China.


All exhibits declare Vietnam’s sovereignty over the two archipelagos, and highlight efforts made by Vietnamese feudal and modern states to safeguard the nation’s sovereignty and territorial integrity.

In addition, 120 material photos on islands and the DK platform in Truong Sa (Spratly) archipelago are also displayed at the event.

Running until June 21, the exhibition also aims to help promote patriotism, solidarity and sense of responsibility among the people, especially the young generation, in protecting sea and island sovereignty.
