Speaking at the opening ceremony of the competition, Deputy Education Minister Nguyen Huu Do said the event was organized in order to mobilize active participation of Vietnamese people community in and out of the country to compile good textbooks.
Textbook compilation will be updated according to the country’s six levels for teaching and learning Vietnamese language in overseas countries.
