The exhibition features the life, revolutionary career, ideology, and morality of Ho Chi Minh as an example of a communist soldier. Museum Director Nguyen Van Cuong said: “More than 300 documents and objects are on display, portraying Ho Chi Minh as the beloved President of Vietnam, an outstanding leader, and a world cultural celebrity. The exhibition is divided into two themes: Ho Chi Minh and his dedication to the Vietnamese nation, and a personal portrait of Ho Chi Minh”.

For the occasion of President Ho Chi Minh’s birth anniversary, the Vietnamese Embassy in Egypt held a ceremony Thursday to launch a new book about the 55th anniversary of the Vietnam-Egypt friendship.

The book, by Egyptian writer Refat Khaled in Arabic and English, includes 2 chapters featuring assessments by Egyptian politicians and experts of the Vietnam-Egypt ties and President Ho Chi Minh. Writer Refat Khaled said: “The book is good for the relations between Egypt and Vietnam. It opens aspects to increase bilateral relations between Egypt and Vietnam in many aspects: culture, economics, politics, trade. You know Vietnam is a tiger in Asia’s economy. During the visits by President Al-Sisi to Vietnam in 2017 and Vietnamese President’s visit to Egypt in 2018, many important agreements were signed. This political relations increase trade, which is good for Egypt and Vietnam”.
