Meanwhile, at the Labour Culture Palace in District 1, the organisers are showcasing 68 photos which feature the patriotic struggle movement of the Vietnamese working class to, together with the strong support and solidarity of the international workers' movement, contribute to Vietnam's historic victory in the two resistance wars against the French colonialists and US imperialists.

Speaking at the opening ceremony, Vice Secretary of the municipal Party Committee Nguyen Van Hieu said that this was a chance to disseminate information about the border demarcation, marker planting and border management, and raise public awareness of national sovereignty.
