Abstract

At the first school-year opening ceremony of the Faculty of Oriental Studies (FOS), Prof. Tran Van Giau – the special guest of the University of Social Sciences and Humanities (USSH, VNU-HCM) and FOS, attended, lighted the traditional torch and delivered some words. As an alumnus of the Oriental University (Soviet Union), during his time full of revolutionary activities, with the spirit of liberal oriental studies, he wholeheartedly supported and encouraged the USSH, VNU-HCM policies and FOS activities. His action of lighting the traditional torch on this occasion bore an important symbolic meaning.
