THE HANOI TIMES — An outdoor exhibition featuring more than 150 photographs highlighting the formation and development of Vietnam’s National Assembly opened on August 7 along Nguyen Hue and Dong Khoi streets in Ho Chi Minh City. 

The 10-day exhibition commemorates the 80th anniversary of Vietnam’s first general election (January 6, 1946) and reflects on the performance of Ho Chi Minh City’s delegation at the National Assembly in the 2021 - 2026 term.
