Mr. Nhuong believes that a university degree is not the end of the learning journey, but only the beginning of a long journey ahead. He reminded the new graduates to nurture the spirit of lifelong learning, maintain courage and aspiration, dare to face challenges, difficulties and responsibility to society.
