Hello everyone,
We are pleased to present an inspirational video clip featuring Minh Anh (Sofia) Ta, a member of Việt Nam’s national Public Forum debate team, who, together with teammate Chi Anh (Amber) Ta, won the 1st and 2nd Speaker Awards at the Harvard Debate UKTOC International Qualifier in October 2025: https://youtu.be/3JPW9r4bXfE?si=wNtIgEd9w6hcjaCP
Minh Anh and Chi Anh are both eighth-grade students at Tran Dai Nghia High School for the Gifted, Ho Chi Minh City. They are also ambassadors of the Vietnam National Public Forum Debate Club and serve as Newspaper Writers for Inspire Youth Journal.
They are the first Vietnamese students to receive Top Speaker Awards at a prestigious Harvard debate competition.
We hope this video will inspire passion for debate among youth across the country and encourage more Vietnamese students to pursue excellence in prestigious international debate competitions.
Thank you very much.
Sincerely,
The Vietnam Public Forum Academy Team
