Over 200 university students across Hanoi gathered at a conference in the capital on March 29 to learn about the National Assembly and its operations.

Vice Chairman of the NA Office Nguyen Sy Dung described it as an open forum where lawmakers could introduce basic information about legislature, thereby improving social and political awareness among students via discussions.

Andrew Holt from the British Embassy expressed his hope that the Vietnamese NA will further encourage students to pay attention to issues regarding politics and policy.

He made it clear that the embassy will help more students meet and talk with NA deputies.
Many students voiced wish that the legislative body launch a forum exclusively designed for students, offering young generations a chance to exchange and improve interpersonal skills.-VNA
