Summary and award ceremony of the traditional sports festival of Can Tho University Trade Union in 2023
Mr. Tran Trung Tinh, Vice Principal in charge of Can Tho University, said that over the past month of the sports festival, the athletes have competed with determination in the spirit of exchange and physical training, not focusing on achievements. That shows that the sports movement helps each person reduce some of the pressure in their daily work. Therefore, in addition to this sports festival, the school also encourages units to organize their own sports activities, which may be small in scale but take place more frequently.
