Auction for Vietnamese king’s gold seal further postponed in France

This is the second postponement of the auction, which was previously set for October 31 and then November 10. They were made for the same reason.

The imperial seal of King Minh Mang (1820-1841) was scheduled to be put up for auction along with more than 300 antiquities hailing from or related to Vietnam on October 31.

The Vietnamese Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism and relevant agencies are working hard to bring the item home.

The ministry’s representatives also met the French auction house, seeking to purchase the seal without any auction.

The above-said antiquities and artworks include a gold bowl dating back to the reign of King Khai Dinh (from 1917 to 1925) of the Nguyen Dynasty (1802 – 1945).

Earlier, the Vietnamese Embassy in France had worked with the parties concerned regarding the seal auction. Representatives of the Nguyen Phuc clan in Vietnam, who are descendants of the Nguyen Kings, had also sent a request for cancelling the auction of the seal and the bowl to Millon.

Djokovic dominates Sinner to claim record-breaking seventh ATP Finals championship

A packed crowd at Turin’s Pala Alpitour had hoped to see the 22-year-old Sinner claim the biggest title of his career, but Djokovic was simply on another level. The world number one only dropped two points on his serve in a flawless first set, and once he broke Sinner’s serve in the fourth game, it was mostly one-way traffic. At one point, Djokovic won 14 consecutive points against the world number four before Sinner briefly halted the 24-time Grand Slam champion’s momentum.

Sinner then had chances to break back in the sixth game, but he couldn’t convert either of them. Djokovic also failed to convert break points that would have given him a 5-2 lead, as a few errors crept into his game. The crowd did the...
