The movement of turning “every roof into a national flag” is said to have started with Le Quang Vu in Tam Duong district, Vinh Phuc province – who painted a five-pointed yellow star on the red roof of the house he built for his parents. During that process, he recorded a video and posted it on social media, earning over 3 million views and hundreds of thousands of likes.

During the historic days of August as well as before the National Day on September 2, the movement of turning "every roof into a national flag" quickly spread throughout the country.

In the Northwestern provinces, where people consider the national flag a sacred symbol expressing national pride and love for the homeland, this movement has also begun to receive a lot of support.

Vu Cong, a resident of Lai Chau City, Lai Chau Province, said he learned about the idea of ​​painting the national flag on the roof from videos that went viral on social media. As the whole country was looking forward to the National Day celebration on September 2, he spent a lot of time carefully studying the specifications of the national flag and preparing the necessary materials to do so.

“My family and colleagues have been very supportive. When the images of the flag I displayed were shared, they received a lot of positive feedback. From then on, I really wanted to join everyone to paint more flags on the rooftops in the Lai Chau border area…” – Mr. Cong said.

Mr. Lo Van Hai, a resident of Muong Luan commune, Dien Bien Dong district, Dien Bien province, also said: “When painting the national flag on the roof of the traditional stilt house of the Thai people, it brings a very different feeling. Besides the love for the Fatherland, the flag also contributes to beautifying the village.”

In recent days, Mr. Nguyen Viet Anh, a resident of Noong Het commune, Dien Bien district, Dien Bien province, has also completed his national flag work with joy. “Under the harsh noon sun and sudden rains, it took me about 4 hours to complete the idea.”

After completing the first work, Nguyen Viet Anh also hopes that in the future, he and the people in the commune will continue to draw many other works such as the map of Vietnam or combining the national flag and the Party flag to make his homeland more beautiful.

For those who do not have the means to paint the national flag on their roof, there are other ways to express their patriotism. Ms. Lo Thi Lan Anh, a resident of Thanh Nua border commune, Dien Bien district, Dien Bien province, also chose her family's rolling door to paint the flag to express her patriotism.

“The first time I saw the image of the national flag on the roofs, I was extremely impressed and wanted to contribute to this meaningful movement. Although it was somewhat difficult to do on the rolling door, my whole family was very supportive and together we completed the work,” said Ms. Lan Anh.
