It is a great honour for the Venezuelan Government to join the project, which set a Guinness World Record for the largest ceramic mosaic mural five years ago, he said.
Venezuela’s involvement in the work is clear evidence for the fine friendship between the two countries, showing their aspiration for freedom and peace, the diplomat stressed.
Together with the ceramic section, a bronze bust of President Ho Chi Minh was also placed on Simon Bolivar Boulevard, in Caracas, as part of the cultural exchange activities between the two countries.
