Thi Huyen shows her love for Spratly Islands
VOV.VN - Miss Nguyen Thi Huyen who has generally remained pretty tight-lipped about her personal life outside of showbiz, recently paid a visit to the Spratly Islands.
With the visit in June, she became the first ever Miss Vietnam titleholder past or present to visit the islands. |
Her trip garnered a lot of interest and respect from the general public. |
Officially, she represents her employer, the Vietnam Academy of Journalism and Communication, where she works as a culture researcher and is the deputy secretary of the youth union. |
During the visit, she actively participates in exchanges with the soldiers on the islands. |
A smile always on her lips. |
She also enjoys playing with children at the Children’s Festival. |
Who then look to her for gifts. |
She volunteers to help prepare meals for the sailors. |
The sailors say her grilled fish is out-of-this-world delicious. |
To show her sincere love and appreciation for those heroes who have sacrificed for the nation, she sings Buddhist songs for the soldiers. |
At Sinh Ton Pagoda, she prays to those who sacrificed on Gac Ma Island. |
A representative of the Ho Chi Minh Communist Youth Union gives a national flag from the Lung Cu Flag Tower to island soldiers. |
The trip leaves an unforgettable impression on her, says Miss Huyen. |
Her work requires that she regularly meet with foreigners, she says, noting that she often chooses pictures of the Spratly Islands as gifts for them. |
Recently Huyen has been instrumental in establishing and lecturing at a joint cultural education program between Middlesex University in London and her employer. |
