A community music competition is held in Moscow on September 2 to celebrate the 79th National Day of Vietnam.

Composer Hong Ha, a member of the Vietnam Musicians' Association and head of the jury, noted that songs registered were about love for the country and its people, emphasizing solidarity and a focus on the nation.

A highlight of the competition was a performance recalling the history and significance of September 2, 1945, as President Ho Chi Minh read the Declaration of Independence proclaiming the birth of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam (now the Socialist Republic of Vietnam) at Hanoi’s Ba Dinh Square.

The lesson of national solidarity from the National Day also serves as a reminder of the importance of uniting all people, regardless of region, ethnicity, religion, social status, whether within the country or abroad.
