Next, the presenter introduced one by one the participating countries of the SEA Games Vietnam accompanied by state flags starting with Brunei Darussalam and ending with the host country.
Vietnam sent its dearest and warmest farewell to all participants in the closing ceremony of the 90-minute Hanoi Vietnam SEA Games.
