China's leading sports brand company Li Ning has signed a five-year sponsorship contract with the Vietnam Athletics Federation, the federation said Thursday.

Under the contract worth 5 billion Vietnamese dong (some 224,000 US dollars), in the 2016-2021, the Chinese firm will annually sponsor some 1 billion Vietnamese dong for the Vietnamese national athletic team's jerseys, shoes, hats and backpacks.
