Nghe An Association of Architects leaves its mark with many important projects

On October 20, 1978, the Nghe Tinh Architects Association was established according to Decision No. 67/KT of the Vietnam Association of Architects (VAAC). At the end of 1990, the Nghe Tinh Architects Association split into two associations: Nghe An Architects Association and Ha Tinh Architects Association according to the Government's decision to separate the province.

Over the past 40 years, the Nghe An architect force has continuously grown, from the initial 15 people to 160 people, including 85 members.
