|
Seasoned reporter Phuong Tan has released Nhung nguoi mo duong dua vo Viet ra the gioi (Pioneers who bring Vietnam’s martial arts to the world) to pay tribute to those who have contributed to the development of the nation’s martial arts.
The 300-page glossy book features photos, insightful information and articles translated into English and French. It will also be published overseas.
It is divided into six parts with the first on traditional martial arts. The second and third parts are about Vovinam and those who brought Vietnam’s martial arts to the world. The fourth is where readers can find 14 articles written by the reporter at many locations worldwide about the subject matter. The fifth has two appendixes while the last for related materials. The book has been critically acclaimed by those in the know.
Huynh Chieu Duong, a martial arts instructor in Belgium, said: “The book reflects the writing style of a reporter with profound and detailed questions through simple and clear sentences.”
Tan has been a poet, writer, reporter, teacher and special correspondent for the bimonthly Vo thuat (martial arts) magazine. After 1975 he was the editor-in-chief of a number of magazines on martial arts. He is currently deputy head of the international festival of traditional Vietnamese martial arts, deputy head of the Hong Bang international martial arts festival and co-founder of Tay Son Institute.
