Cù Lao Rùa Private Library of journalist Mai Sông Bé opened

 After 2 construction years to realize the dream "to have a place for drinking tea, reading books and newspapers for Cù Lao Rùa residents and friends everywhere", on 12 Nov, journalist Mai Sông Bé held a gathering to launch Cù Lao Rùa private library, located at Ngũ vị Văn nhân Church Dong Nai River, Thanh Hiep Hamlet, Thanh Phuoc Commune, Tan Uyen Town.

At this library, in addition to books of the author Mai Sông Bé, like: “Nhân vật tôi yêu”; “Baghdad, thành phố trong vòng vây”; “Gương mặt Đồng Nai qua 15 năm đổi mới báo chí”; “Biên Hòa - Đồng Nai 300 năm”; “Thế giới: một góc nhìn”; “Suy ngẫm của người già”... there are also thousands of books of different genres for readers.

The library was born as a wish of journalist Mai Sông Bé, former Director of Dong Nai Radio and Television Station, to serve local community’s needs for reading books and newspapers, gradually contributing to building a reading culture, especially for teenagers and children.
