Mr. Bui Cong Chien said: “I started collecting war relics 20 years ago because my dream was to create a miniature war relic museum right in my own home. I collect relics from Russia, France, the United States… wherever I find information about where they are, I search for and buy them. For me, collecting weapons and war artifacts is a great pleasure.” |
