President hails outstanding ethnic minority students
Ethnic minority students are an
important human resource for local development, he said, adding that
during the country’s renovation process, students should do whatever
they can to contribute to national development.
The students were
part of a group of more than 110 ethnic minority students from all over
the country who were honoured at a ceremony in Hanoi for their
outstanding achievements in national academic competitions and the
university entrance exams in 2014.
The President praised the
Government’s Committee on Ethnic Minority Affairs, the Vietnam News
Agency and relevant agencies for the initiative to honour outstanding
students, saying that the ceremony was a chance for the students meet
and share their academic experience and efforts to contribute to
socio-economic development in Vietnam, and the ethnic-inhabited areas in
particular.-VNA
