More than 80 photos highlighting diplomatic contributions by women in the south during the two resistance wars against US and French forces are currently on display at the Southern Women’s Museum in Ho Chi Minh City.
Curator Nguyen Thi Tham said that the exhibition room gives visitors an insight into southern women’s staunch and flexible behaviour in wartime.
The strong role played by women on the political front line, famous for their intelligence and cultural values – many wore traditional ao dai at international functions - had a positive influence on the international women’s movement, Tham said, adding that they greatly contributed to the liberation of southern Vietnam in April 1975.
The exhibition will be open to visitors until June 30.-VNA
