To celebrate the National Day, the Youth Union of Chau Hanh commune organized an early Independence Day celebration, attracting a large number of people to participate. Dong Minh village is a Thai community located near Tan Lac town and was chosen as the venue. With the message "Happy Independence Day, preserving the cultural identity of the Thai ethnic group", the festival was celebrated happily, intimately, and simply with cultural exchanges such as gong playing, folk dancing, drinking rice wine, etc.

In particular, participating in the program, young people also experience making croissant cakes - a traditional dish of the Thai people in Quy Chau, Con Cuong..., often offered to ancestors on the occasion of traditional Tet.

Offering food to the soul is also a custom that is common in traditional Tet, and also appears in Independence Day. Thai people believe that the soul must be healthy and always be with them for them to be safe. Therefore, offerings must be made to feed the soul and not get lost. Independence Day in Dong Minh village is more fun because some Thai Cultural Clubs from neighboring areas also come to participate in the exchange.

Since 1945, Independence Day has gradually become an annual cultural activity of ethnic minority communities in the mountainous areas of Nghe An. Up to now, the organization of this great happy day has become more exciting because the economic and social life in the mountainous and highland areas has also improved much compared to the previous period.
