Speaking at the Spring Calligraphy Opening Ceremony, leaders of Kien Hung commune said that the Spring Calligraphy Opening Ceremony at the Special National Relic Area of the Mac Dynasty Kings is to pay tribute to Duc Mac Thai To and the ancestors and kings of the Mac Dynasty who have made great contributions in developing education and training talents for the country.
During 65 years of reign in the capital Thang Long (1527 - 1592), the Mac Dynasty opened 22 imperial examinations, admitted 485 doctors, and selected 13 laureates, including outstanding intellectuals such as: Trang Trinh Nguyen Binh Khiem, Nguyen Thien, Giap Hai, Phung Khac Khoan, Nguyen Du,... The Mac Dynasty was also a dynasty that valued Nom script, encouraged the creation of Nom poetry and literature, and was a period when Nom literature and many art forms developed brilliantly and uniquely.
The calligraphy opening festival is not only an occasion for community cultural activities, but also an affirmation that Hai Phong City in general, and Kien Hung commune in particular, always upholds knowledge and the desire to contribute, placing knowledge and people at the center of all development strategies, preserving traditions to create a foundation, and innovation to break through the future. Calligraphy opening is not only writing the first stroke in the new year, but also a spiritual aspiration for a year of complete fulfillment with the spirit of "Ma dao thanh cong"" - Mr. Pham Van Dinh, Deputy Secretary of the Party Committee, Chairman of Kien Hung Commune People's Committee emphasized.
The new point of the Binh Ngo 2026 spring calligraphy opening ceremony is the participation of thousands of people representing many generations and professions, with many wishes, together placing calligraphy strokes in the first moments of spring. On a 65m long silk strip, symbolizing 65 years of reign of the Mac Dynasty with the participation of 9 blocs representing forces and people from all walks of life, on a background of bright red silk - the color of auspiciousness, filial piety and longevity, the spring calligraphy strokes will share the aspiration to build a homeland and country, sending a message: National peace and prosperity - Loyalty, courage, and resilience - Justice, integrity, and uprightness - Peaceful mind, bright mind - Prosperity and prosperity - Wind and waves, favorable weather - Early learning, successful career - Peaceful and happy - Gradual success. On this occasion, leaders of Kien Hung commune presented gifts to students with excellent calligraphy opening writings in the Year of the Snake 2025.
