Ended the exchange, Hero La Van Cau shared that he has joined many TV live shows, interviews and talk shows, but, the talk today is very special that very emotional, close and deep to him. Because the talk was made right in the museum exhibition room where displays about the Dien Bien Phu Battle, and he can talk directly to the young soldier students who are obligated to peace keeping for the country.
