40 outstanding organizations and individuals were honored
Ho Chi Minh City is a locality with a tradition of being a pioneer in implementing many models and social movements, which have been replicated and spread across the country. Over the years, Ho Chi Minh City has continuously sought to honor beautiful living examples, contributing to promoting the spirit of humanity and dedication to society and the community.
In 2024, 40 organizations and individuals who are typical examples will be honored with the title "Silent but noble examples". Among them are organizations and individuals whose models have been widely spread such as the Green Saigon Club, Professor Dr. Le Ngoc Thach - who contributed a savings book of 1 billion VND to the people in the North affected by storms and floods, the 911 Traffic Rescue Team of Thu Duc City...
Speaking at the ceremony, Mr. Phan Van Mai - Chairman of Ho Chi Minh City People's Committee - on behalf of Ho Chi Minh City leaders expressed deep gratitude to 17 groups and 23 individuals who have made noble gestures and contributed to Ho Chi Minh City.
Not only that, the Chairman of the Ho Chi Minh City People's Committee also sent his gratitude to many other silent groups and individuals that the city has not yet recognized, including many groups and individuals who do not want to be recognized.
"Perhaps while we are sitting here, out there are many groups and individuals carrying out activities and doing things with noble and humane gestures, contributing to making people's lives better and better," said Mr. Mai.
Together to warm up difficult situations
According to Mr. Mai, Ho Chi Minh City is the economic locomotive of the whole country, a city of dynamism, creativity and humanity. However, not only is it an economic locomotive, Ho Chi Minh City must also be a locomotive of humanity.
In recent times, from Ho Chi Minh City, many movements, actions, and noble gestures have been born, inspired, and spread strongly.
In 2025, Ho Chi Minh City and the whole country will celebrate the 50th anniversary of national reunification. The head of the Ho Chi Minh City government hopes that organizations, individuals, and each citizen, with their position, role, and conditions, will do the most meaningful things possible.
"Let's not only build high-rise buildings and large projects, but also eliminate slums and black spots in terms of environment, traffic, and social order. Let's warm up those in difficult circumstances, to make life more meaningful and Ho Chi Minh City more beautiful," said Mr. Mai.
Mr. Mai also requested that agencies and localities actively coordinate, create conditions, and participate with organizations and individuals in charity activities, so that Ho Chi Minh City can truly be the locomotive of compassion.
The Chairman of the Ho Chi Minh City People's Committee also hopes that the business community, philanthropists, and organizations with conditions will continue to accompany these volunteer activities.
