Nearly 200 Vietnamese students and youths living across the US gathered at a Lunar New Year (Tet) celebration in New York on February 5 evening (or February 6 morning – Vietnam time).

A lunar New Year (Tet) festival has taken place at the Financial University (FU) in Moscow, gathering 200 students from Vietnam, China, Mongolia and Russia.

The consumer price index (CPI) of January rose only 0.1 percent compared to the previous month and 2.56 percent year-on-year thanks to abundant supply of goods for Lunar New Year celebration.

The three main regions of Vietnam are characterized by different climate and soil conditions that result in different traditions and customs, and some of these have to do with which traditional dishes are favoured and how they are prepared when Tet, the Lunar New Year, is celebrated.

A wide range of cultural activities to reveal the depth of traditional Tet (Lunar New Year) celebrations will take place at the Thang Long Imperial Citadel from January 24. The programmes for children will run until January 27.

OVs have been encouraged to register for joining the annual “Xuan Que Huong” (Homeland Spring) programme scheduled to take place at the National Convention Centre in Hanoi on February 7, 2018.

Central coastal Quang Nam province's Hoi An City and Thai-owned Index Living Mall will jointly organise the Light Festival to welcome 2017, the Year of the Rooster.
