The Vietnam-Japan friendship song "Tomodachi - Friendship" praises friendship and equality of race, gender, and age. "As long as we unite and understand each other, we will all together create a wonderful, peaceful, and happy world," said Mizushima Kozo, Chairman of the Ho Chi Minh City Japanese Business Association.
He said thanks to the contest, the Vietnam-Japan friendship song and the keyword "Tomodachi-Friendship" will be popularized among people of the two countries, especially young people, to help cultivate friendship.
The award ceremony of the singing contest is scheduled for December this year.
