Addressing the ceremony, the Chairman of the Vietnam Union of Literature and Arts Associations, Associate Professor, Dr. Do Hong Quan, said that the annual Literary and Art Awards was increasingly being expanded in scale, gathering the participation of a large number of artists across the country.

Regarding the quality of the award, he said that this year's literary and artistic works have shown exploration and innovation, but the content and themes still adhere to the life and moral traditions of the nation.

In particular, many works go into the current topics of the country, such as the issue of protecting the sovereignty of borders and islands.

The organising committee hopes that in2023, the Awards will receive all works from all 10 of the central literature and arts associations, and 63 local literature and art associations across the country, said Do Hong Quan.
