On the afternoon of July 20th, QiClash had the honor of participating in the Cultural Exchange program welcoming the AUN Summer Camp 2026 student delegation at the University of Social Sciences and Humanities. This was a meaningful activity aimed at connecting cultures and fostering friendship among students from various countries in the region.

As part of the program, the delegation—including guests and 74 students from Southeast Asian countries—had the opportunity to learn about the University of Social Sciences and Humanities, while enjoying musical performances showcasing the unique cultural characteristics of each country, watching calligraphy demonstrations, and listening to stories about the wet rice civilization and traditional Vietnamese folk games.

Amidst the bustling atmosphere of the series of activities, QiClash (Cờ Thủy Tinh Châu) was one of the areas that captured the curiosity and impressed the students. Here, we were proud to introduce a strategic board game deeply imbued with Vietnamese identity to the Southeast Asian students. By utilizing the imagery of the 12 zodiac animals on the board, we conveyed stories about our country's cultural characteristics in the most practical and relatable way.

The novelty of the gameplay, combined with the cultural identity embedded in each chess piece, sparked a strong sense of interest among the students. These interactive and guided matches did more than just break down communication barriers; they served as a bridge connecting the cultures and mindsets of different nations.

We would like to express our sincere gratitude to the University of Social Sciences and Humanities and the Faculty of Oriental Studies for providing the opportunity for QiClash to participate, promoting unique heritage values and intellectual wisdom to the international student community.

See you again at our upcoming events!
