HA NOI — Sixty-four high school teams took part in a contest to test their knowledge of ASEAN organised in Ha Noi yesterday.
The event was one of several activities to promote students' knowledge about ASEAN jointly held by the Ministry of Education and Training, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Ha Noi Department of Education and Training and other relevant agencies.
The contest was expected to provide young students with useful information about ASEAN member countries and an opportunity to make new friends, said Education and Training Deputy Minister Tran Quang Quy.
Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs Dao Viet Trung said that with proper knowledge about ASEAN, students as the country's future could offer policy makers recommendations for the further development and increased solidarity of the ASEAN community.
Each team was made up of five students who competed in a contest by answering a 10-question package. Sixteen teams took first prize in their respective heats.
Do Thi Uyen, a 12th grader at Tran Hung Dao High School, said her group had started researching for the contest from July.
Relevant ministries have provided 80 high schools in the city with basic knowledge about the institution to facilitate the studies of students . — VNS
