Performing under the theme “The Beauty of Lotus beneath the National Flag” - “Sắc Sen dưới bóng cờ Tổ Quốc”, the Faculty of Agriculture and Aquaculture's performing arts team presented a cohesive program that used the lotus as its central image to portray the beauty of the country, national pride, gratitude to the Communist Party of Vietnam and President Ho Chi Minh, and the younger generation's aspiration to contribute to the nation. Each of the four performances had its own artistic character, and together they formed an emotionally engaging story about Vietnam and its people.
