According to the plan, after the Asian Championships held in Thai Nguyen, Vietnam’s Muaythai team will continue to participate in the World Games in Chengdu, China in August; the World Youth Championships in the UAE in September; and the 33rd SEA Games in Thailand in December.
Within the framework of the event, the Organizing Committee will award the Labor Medal of the President of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam to 04 typical Muaythai athletes in recognition of their efforts, excellent dedication and outstanding contributions in the journey of developing this sport in Vietnam.
This event is not only an opportunity to affirm the position of Vietnam in general and Thai Nguyen province in particular on the continental sports map but also an opportunity for Thai Nguyen to promote the image of a friendly, hospitable land, ready for integration and breakthrough development.
