Cultural exchange between Vietnam and CIS countries
(VOV) -A cultural exchange is being held in Khanh Hoa province from October 27-29 to promote mutual understanding between Vietnam and Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS).
There will be a series of activities including a model and design competition, and art and music performances with the participation of famous bands and singers from Vietnam and CIS countries.
This is the first cultural exchange of its kind between Vietnam and CIS member countries after a direct air route between Russia and Khanh Hoa was launched in late 2010.
Dozens of planes have since landed at Khanh Hoa’s Cam Ranh International Terminal, bringing thousands of tourists from Russia and other CIS member countries to the central region of Vietnam.
So far this year as many as 70,000 CIS visitors have traveled to Khanh Hoa province, and the figure is expected to rise to 100,000 by the year’s end. .
The five CIS countries are Russia, Kazakhstan, Ukraine, Belarus and Kyrgyzstan.
