Therefore, according to the Minister and Chairman of the Ethnic Committee, the responsibility of students is to try hard to study and equip themselves with knowledge to apply in practice after graduation. No one can do this for them. They must grasp the opportunity and strive to help themselves, their families and society. As long as we have the will, goals, the right methods, determination and perseverance, we can do it.

Besides, in addition to studying, you also have to help each other, share with each other the customs and unique cultures of your ethnic groups, thereby preserving, maintaining and promoting the unique cultural values ​​of the nation.
