And like every year, the booth of Nhan Dan newspaper of the Communist Party of Vietnam always attracts many French friends who love Vietnam.
The red flags with yellow stars and the hammer and sickle flags are hung all over the ceiling. On the walls are large paintings of President Ho Chi Minh and the activities of the Party and State leaders, of the country's landscape, seas and islands, and the people of Vietnam.
Books from World Publishing House and Truth are displayed solemnly on the shelves. The People's Newspapers are arranged on the table, next to the Vietnam Pictorial Magazine and Le Courrier du Vietnam. Melodies with strong Vietnamese national sounds come from the loudspeaker, along with the aroma of fried spring rolls, bread and Vietnamese beef noodles...
All of these create a colorful, vibrant, and captivating Nhan Dan newspaper booth that awakens the senses and makes visitors unable to stop by.
