The internship offered students the chance to gain practical experience and interact with professionals while studying and visiting diplomatic missions.
Accompanying the students on this trip was Dr. Vu Quoc Anh
At the start of the internship, the students visited and engaged in practical study at the National Assembly Building of the Kingdom of Cambodia. During this trip, students are equipped with knowledge of protocol, law, foreign affairs, and diplomacy, while also gaining a deeper understanding of the history and functioning of the National Assembly.

Notably, the delegation had the opportunity to visit the National Assembly Meeting Room, where significant sessions with national impact have taken place. This meeting room is only opened twice a year for National Assembly sessions, making the delegation's experience particularly special and rare.

In addition to visiting the National Assembly Meeting Room, the delegation had the privilege of touring the Cambodian National Assembly Building, which is under construction with a $25 million USD investment funded by Vietnam. This symbolizes the friendship and cooperation between the two countries, providing students with a deeper understanding of Vietnam-Cambodia diplomatic relations.
