After listening to the report of the General Director of the General Department of Sports and Physical Training, Head of the Vietnamese Sports Delegation at the 32nd SEA Games Dang Ha Viet, President Vo Van Thuong affirmed: "On behalf of the Party and the State, I would like to send to the Vietnamese sports delegation my best wishes for health and congratulations on the achievements that the teams have achieved at the 32nd SEA Games. This is an emotional congress. The Vietnamese delegation has demonstrated the Vietnamese spirit, solidarity, nobility, and purity, which has been highly appreciated by international friends. This is also the first SEA Games abroad in which the Vietnamese delegation won the overall first place with 359 medals (including 136 gold medals, breaking 12 SEA Games records, setting 4 SEA Games records).
This achievement is very admirable, very glorious, bringing joy not only to the Vietnamese sports delegation but also to the people of the whole country. I would like to welcome and congratulate the delegation's achievements. I know that behind the achievements, the medals, the glories, there are touching stories. Anyone who wears the national team jersey has a destiny, stories, and circumstances to overcome. The common point of Vietnamese athletes is their strong will, perseverance, not giving up, determination to overcome themselves, and striving for the highest achievements."
Nguyen Thi Oanh won 4 gold medals at SEA Games 32 and was awarded the Second Class Labor Medal by the President.
Young swimmer Pham Thanh Bao won 2 gold medals and broke 2 SEA Games records.
President Vo Van Thuong shared: "I am very touched and proud of the story of Nguyen Thi Oanh. In 30 minutes, athlete Nguyen Thi Oanh won 2 SEA Games gold medals, which is a rare thing. But when interviewed, Nguyen Thi Oanh did not say anything about the difficulties. Our excellent athletes are like artists, always dedicating themselves with the highest creativity. I am also touched by swimmer Pham Thanh Bao. His family had a sad story (his grandmother passed away), but Bao overcame his own pain and sadness to strive for the highest achievements, defeating strong opponents. The story of coach Mai Duc Chung also created strong emotions. The Vietnamese sports delegation brought a lot of fresh inspiration and made us try our best like each member of the delegation".

Vietnam women's football team wins SEA Games gold medal for the fourth consecutive time
President Vo Van Thuong expressed: "I also want to share with female athletes. In the past, Uncle Ho once gave Vietnamese women 8 words: "Heroic, indomitable, loyal, and capable". For female athletes, your efforts are extraordinary, men must learn and follow. In the past, we had Dang Thi Dong (shooting), Tran Hieu Ngan, Nguyen Thi Anh Vien (won the most gold medals at the 32nd SEA Games), now we have Nguyen Thi Oanh (athletics), the Vietnamese women's football team won the SEA Games championship 8 times - including 4 consecutive SEA Games gold medals. When the Vietnamese national anthem sounded, the Vietnamese national flag was raised in the regional sports arena, we felt extremely moved and proud.
