More than 10,000 people participated in a walk in Ho Chi Minh City on March 29 to welcome the upcoming 3rd Asian Indoor Games (AIG) to be hosted by Vietnam this year for the first time.
Walkers wearing headbands and carrying the AIG flag paraded along a 2.5km route, from the Municipal Theatre to Dong Khoi, Ton Duc Thang, Nguyen Hue, Le Loi, Pasteur, Ly Tu Trong, then returned to the starting point.
Also on the occasion, Nguyen Thi Thu Ha, vice chairwoman of the municipal People’s Committee, received the AIG flag from the Vietnam Olympic Committee and the AIG organising board, officially launching the Games campaign in the city.
Ho Chi Minh City is one of six selected localities to host AIG events. It has 11 venues to hold 8 events and 6 others reserved for training.
