(HBO) - The Standing Committee of the Women’s Union of Hoa Binh province has issued Official Dispatch No. 1165/BTV-VP dated February 5, 2020 on response to the campaign entitled "Ao dai – Vietnamese cultural heritage” which was launched by the Central Committee of the Vietnam Women’s Union.
Contestants of the 2019 "Beauty of Muong land” contest
wear "ao dai” (Vietnamese traditional long dress).
Activities within the framework of the campaign
are slated for March 6 with all members of the women’s union at all levels and
female workers in the province wearing ao dai.
The women’s unions of districts, Hoa Binh city
and agencies were asked to join hands with media units to call on female
workers to wear "ao dai” at their workplaces, schools and offices, as well as
during social and family events.
Organisations and individuals were
requested to team up with relevant agencies to arrange practical, suitable and
creative activities such as "ao dai” shows, meetings with ao dai designers and
tailors; encourage designs with traditional materials; hold workshops and
contests; and present "ao dai” for poor women, among others.
This is part of activities to promote the
image of Vietnamese women’s "ao dai”, in a bid to have "ao dai” inscribed on
the list of national intangible cultural heritage./.
