“My first year as Ambassador has been busy. Let’s look back at the amazing achievements our two countries have accomplished in 2022.”

In the video looking back at the achievements of the Vietnam-US bilateral relationship before the new year, US Ambassador Marc Knapper said that the excellent cooperation results in many fields are proof that the US and Vietnam are working together strategically to solve the most pressing issues.

Ambassador Marc Knapper said that the first year of his term in Vietnam was a busy year.

The US and Vietnam have achieved many great achievements in 2022. The two sides have organized many meetings and effective exchanges between leaders and high-level delegations.

In May, Vietnam became one of 14 founding members of the Indo-Pacific Economic Framework for Prosperity (IPEF).

The US looks forward to Vietnam’s contributions to building strong supply chains, strengthening governance, and resilience to climate change.

In 2023, the US and Vietnam will celebrate the 10th anniversary of their comprehensive partnership.

“The wonderful results of cooperation in many fields are a testament to the fact that the US and Vietnam are working together strategically to solve the most pressing issues. I can’t wait to see the results we will be achieved together in 2023,” the diplomat shared in the video.

Vietnam discovers 2,000-year-old stringed instrument

Image
Discovered along the Mekong River in southern Vietnam, the 2,000-year-old instrument resembles a single-stringed harp and may have been an ancestor to the complex musical instruments people still plucked today in Vietnam, according to UK-based science website IFLScience . The artifact consists of a 35-centimeter piece of deer antler with a hole at one end for a peg, which was likely used to tune the string. The antler most likely came from a Sambar deer or an Indian hog deer, two species native to mainland Southeast Asia. While the string seems to have eroded away long ago, the instrument features a bridge that was perhaps used to support the string. Lead researcher and Ph.D. student Fredeliza Campos from the Australian National University said the artifact is at least 2,000 years old — dating back to Vietnam’s pre-Oc Eo culture along the Mekong River, which is exceptionally early for this kind of instrument.
