Symbols of unity and identity: HaUI students in the colors of the Nation

In the solemn and heroic atmosphere as the nation commemorates the 80th Anniversary of the August Revolution and National Day of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam (September 2, 1945 – September 2, 2025), Hanoi University of Industry (HaUI) hosted a special art program titled “Pride of Vietnam” on the afternoon of August 25, 2025. The event was jointly organized by the Faculty of Foreign Languages and Tourism of HaUI and the APEC Institute of Entrepreneurial Research and Training.

Overview of the event

The event drew distinguished guests including Assoc. Prof. Dr. Le Hong Quan, Chairman of HaUI’s University Council; Dr. Tran Duy Khanh, Director of the APEC Institute of Entrepreneurial Research and Training; People’s Artist Vi Hoa; designer Hoàng Ly, Chairwoman of the Vietnamese Ao Dai Cultural Club; along with more than 500 lecturers, and students of HaUI.

Throughout the course of Vietnam’s history, the red flag with its golden star has stood as a sacred emblem of unity, resilience, and enduring national pride. Equally, the conical hat and the traditional Vietnamese Ao Dai, modest yet deeply emblematic of cultural identity, have remained inseparable from the spirit and daily life of the Vietnamese people. At Hanoi University of Industry, the sight of a sea of red Ao Dai adorned with the national flag formed not only a striking spectacle but also a living manifestation of patriotism, embodying the spirit, determination, and aspirations of the HaUI community.

Performances of patriotic songs by Colonel, People’s Artist Vi Hoa, together with the fashion showcase “Pride of Vietnam” by designer Hoàng Ly, conveyed powerful messages of cultural identity, grace, and national pride in a time of peace. The program became a profound celebration of heritage, resilience, and the shared vision of a bright future for Vietnam in a new era.

Beyond honoring tradition, the event also highlighted the role of today’s youth as torchbearers of national progress. Nurturing the spirit of patriotism and self-reliance is not only about continuing the legacy of past generations but also about fulfilling the responsibility of building a prosperous, civilized, and globally integrated Vietnam. Students and young people stand at the forefront of innovation and social development, carrying the mission of shaping the nation’s future.
