Athletes have gone through many competitions and made their talents known, so the closing ceremony will be a moment for everybody to honor and praise them, and promote sportsmanship, she explained.

Ly further noted that a total of up to 580 sq.m. of indoor LED display screens will be installed for the event and there are a main center stage, covering some 611 sqm, and two 315-sqm side stages to create the best sound and light effects.
