Inauguration of 2 classrooms worth 12.5 billion VND in Dien Bien province donated by SHB

Overcoming harsh conditions of weather, traffic and terrain, two classrooms sponsored by SHB in Tua Chua and Dien Bien Dong districts, Dien Bien province were officially inaugurated and put into operation. On October 12-13, Saigon - Hanoi Commercial Joint Stock Bank ( SHB ) in collaboration with the Vietnam Buddhist Sangha and the People's Committees of Tua Chua and Dien Bien Dong districts, Dien Bien province, inaugurated two classrooms for primary boarding schools for ethnic minorities in the province. The SHB-sponsored construction includes 9 classrooms at Sin Chai Primary Boarding School, Sin Chai Commune, Tua Chua District and 9 classrooms at Phinh Giang Primary Boarding School, Phinh Giang Commune, Dien Bien Dong District with a total value of 12.5 billion VND. According to Most Venerable Thich Duc Thien, Vice President, General Secretary of the Executive Council and Head of the International Buddhist Committee of the Vietnam Buddhist Sangha, National Assembly Delegate, National Assembly Delegation of Dien Bien province, the completion of the new classroom project demonstrates the concern of the local government and the cooperation of SHB Bank to the lives of teachers and students in this land with many difficulties.

The two classroom projects were started in early 2024 in Phinh Giang and Sin Chai communes - two remote communes in Dien Bien province with unsynchronized traffic infrastructure and difficult travel. Despite many difficulties, SHB always closely followed and urged the progress to ensure that the two classroom projects could be put into use in the 2024-2025 school year. Attending the inauguration ceremony, Mr. Mua A Son, Standing Deputy Secretary of Dien Bien Provincial Party Committee, said: “This is truly a miracle, when a spacious school was built in an area far from the center and difficult to travel. The affection of SHB bank will be a great source of encouragement for teachers and students of the school in particular and local people in general”. Sponsoring the construction of primary boarding schools for ethnic minorities in remote areas is an important activity, meeting the learning needs of more than 1,100 students in communes of Dien Bien province, while contributing to economic and social development, ensuring security and safety in the northern border provinces. “With these two classrooms, SHB hopes that ethnic minority children in Dien Bien province will have the opportunity to study in more spacious and modern facilities. That will be the motivation for them to strive, overcome difficulties and obstacles, continue to nurture their dreams and become useful citizens for their homeland and country,” SHB General Director Ngo Thu Ha shared at the event. Also at the inauguration ceremony, General Director Ngo Thu Ha and SHB staff presented 2,000 gifts including school bags and school supplies to students of the two schools.
