President calls on modern youth to emulate
President Truong Tan Sang praised the patriotic spirit of the1954-75 youth movement at Duy Tan Private University in central Danang City at a meeting with 195 former members of the movement on December 9.
He expressed his hope that the students today will keep up the spirit to contribute to the building of Vietnam into an industrialised country by 2020.
"Duy Tan University, the first and largest private university in the central region, has spared no effort over the past 19 years to help develop high-quality human resources for the nation," Sang said.
"I hope the university will continue its role as a trailblazer in training high-quality human resources for the socio-economic development of the central and Central Highland regions."
University rector Le Cong Co said the university has granted 800 master's degrees and 46,000 bachelor's degrees and provided vocational training to 1,200 students at five centres.
