Vietnamese students broaden horizons

HANOI - Lying on her bed, Hoang Cam Tu, a 21-year-old Vietnamese student slowly turned the pages of a photo album, reminiscing about each moment of the recent three-week camp she experienced in China.

As one of the 40 Vietnamese students sent to the Yunnan University of Economics and Finance in Yunnan province for academic and cultural exchanges last month, Tu, together with her companions, took home touching stories about the host nation.

With special support from the Chinese embassy in Vietnam and Yunnan's trade promotion agency, the summer camp aimed to boost cultural exchanges between young people of the two countries.
