At Naresuan University (Phitsanulok Province), the group interacted with Vietnamese students and Thai students learning Vietnamese. They also participated in the “Golden Bell Challenge” program to learn about the life and revolutionary career of President Ho Chi Minh, especially his time in Thailand under the alias Thau Chin. This activity helped enhance understanding of the history, culture, and friendship between Vietnam and Thailand.
Subsequently, the group visited the Ban Dong Ho Chi Minh Museum (Phichit Province) to lay flowers in tribute to President Ho Chi Minh, learn about the patriotic movement of the Vietnamese community in Thailand, and explore some local cultural and religious sites.
The program contributed to educating about the tradition of patriotism, fostering national pride and responsibility among Vietnamese students towards their homeland. It also strengthened exchanges and solidarity within the Vietnamese student community in Thailand, helping to nurture the friendly relations between the people of the two countries.
