HCM CITY (VNS) — Amateur writers in Viet Nam and abroad are encouraged to participate in a writing forum to be held by the HCM City-based Phu Nu (Woman) newspaper this week.

The forum's theme is Sai Gon Toi Yeu (Sai Gon – I Love You), and it focuses on the lives of people in HCM City, their dreams and their challenges at work.

Writing on memories of Sai Gon (former name of HCM City) and its culture and lifestyle is also encouraged.

The organisers hope the forum will introduce the beauty of Sai Gon to the world.

Submissions should be no fewer than 1,000 words and the best ones will be published.

People interested in participating should send their works to saigontoiyeu@baophunu.org.vn. — VNS
