Mr. Nguyen Anh Dung expressed: “Having the opportunity to go abroad, I have come to know that many readers have the same expectations and hopes as me. That is, hoping that Vietnamese books will have the opportunity to go abroad, spreading the cultural atmosphere, social values, spiritual life and national values ​​of the Vietnamese people.

In addition to displaying paper books, we also give away audiobook codes through QR scanning. Hopefully these efforts can open a new page for copyright exchange.”
