Nearly 100 exhibits confirming Vietnam ’s sovereignty over Hoang Sa (Paracel) and Truong Sa (Spratly) archipelagos are being displayed at an exhibition in the central province of Binh Thuan.
They include photos, maps and documents in Han (classical Chinese used in Vietnam ), Nom (Vietnamese ideographic script), Vietnamese and French languages issued from the 17 th to the outset of the 20 th century by the Vietnamese feudal states and the French government in Indochina (on behalf of the then Vietnamese state).
On display are also woodblocks of the Nguyen Dynasty (1802-1945) and other administrative documents issued in the 1954-1975 period and onward by the Vietnamese state that confirm Vietnam’s execution and protection of sovereignty over the two archipelagos for long via peaceful means.
Worthy of note is a collection of world atlas compiled and published by the Western countries from the 18 th to the 19 th century, all featuring Vietnam ’s ownership of Hoang Sa and Truong Sa. Furthermore, maps and atlases officially published by the Chinese state also showed that China had never managed the islands.
The exhibition is running from January 16-21 at the Binh Thuan Convention Centre.-VNA
