Each individual and family, though small, together can create a healthy green lifestyle," said a company representative.

In addition to activities demonstrating social responsibility and bringing community value, this real estate company also focuses on natural and health values in the projects it implements. The products of this unit are meticulously cared for in terms of living space quality, with special attention to the needs of resort living and the physical and mental health of residents. Kusto Home projects such as Urban Green and Diamond Island all have the advantage of green living space and low construction density.

Participating in the Dare to Run race, athletes raised funds to build a solid concrete bridge to replace the suspension bridge, a temporary bridge over the stream, which has been dilapidated for many years in Hin Pen village. The bridge is 35 m long, serving the trading needs of nearly 2,500 people in Dua Mon commune. Currently, many items on the bridge are dilapidated, slippery, posing a potential risk of accidents for people.
