The two shows of BlackPink at My Dinh National Stadium recently attracted nearly 67,000 spectators. However, after the show, there was a huge amount of trash on the stands and all over the streets, causing controversy. Many people think that this is a failure of education...

The Blackpink band's performance in Vietnam attracted public attention, this was an opportunity to promote the country's image. However, after the show, the young people were shocked when they left, leaving a huge amount of trash on the field and all over the road. What is your perspective?

The image of garbage after the concert partly revealed the "gap" in the sense of community responsibility and lack of civilization of some young people.

This image, in some ways, also makes international friends have a negative view of our country's youth. At the same time, it somewhat reduces trust and doubts about the community consciousness of Vietnamese people when participating in studying, traveling, and events abroad.

In addition, it is also necessary to invest in more public trash cans. During events, it is necessary to prepare enough trash cans to meet the amount of trash. The organization needs to be strict, supervision is strict, and there need to be penalties for littering.

Many people have criticized this action as a lack of awareness, even a failure of education from family, school to society. What is your opinion?

This shows that the education of community responsibility in schools, families and society is still limited and loose, and is still superficial. To be more precise, education has not been successful in establishing proper and civilized behavior for young people in public, making them not feel guilty about what they do.

But thinking back, it is impossible to blame it all on education from school, family or society. Because each individual's knowledge acquisition is different, subjective and objective factors, life experiences and what has been experienced in life all have a significant impact on each individual.

In fact, when young people meet their idols, they become active and have uncontrolled behaviors. What young people care about at this time is to see their idols and join in the vibrant atmosphere. Other aspects are no longer a problem for young people to worry about, because with the mindset of cleaning up after an event is not their job.

In my opinion, educating the sense of responsibility and civility in the community is not only taught by words but also needs to be demonstrated by decisive actions, setting a good example for each other in schools, families and society. In addition, it is necessary to invest in many and synchronous public trash cans, easily forming habits and forming a civilized lifestyle everywhere, every time.

Looking back, is the beautiful act of Japanese fans collecting trash in the stands after the 2022 World Cup match worth thinking about?

It can be said that civilized behavior in public places of the Japanese has long become a value. From collecting trash or patiently queuing, not pushing, bowing to thank when given way... are just specific examples. It is worth mentioning that this has become a habit, a community discipline.

From the stories of Japanese players cleaning up the locker room to Japanese fans picking up trash after the 2022 World Cup match, we need to think about the importance of educating children about responsibility and civilized behavior in public.

I myself do not want to compare Vietnamese people with any other country. But looking at others makes me think about myself, to try and change, I only hope that young Vietnamese people will have to look back at themselves. From there, there will be changes in thinking, words and actions, a greater sense of responsibility for the community, contributing to building the image of a beautiful country and civilized people in the eyes of the international community.

Education is to convey messages to children and create a suitable environment for students to grow up, gradually forming habits of dedication and civilized behavior? What are the responsibilities of family education and school education?

The educational responsibility of the school and family is very necessary. In which, the most vivid and effective education, in my opinion, is through the good examples of teachers and parents...

The Japanese people's civilized behavior in public is remarkable. To have that, it must be based on education and continuous practice in life, not just one or two days. It is even more impossible to "rely on teachers for everything"; to create habits, lifestyles and civilized behavior, it must be educated in the "three-legged stool" of family - school - society. How can each individual experience, train and practice regularly and continuously?

It can be said that education plays a key role in creating the right values ​​and civilized behavior. Many small things such as greetings, bowing to thank, picking up trash, not littering in public places... have great significance, helping children become decent people in the future. We can learn this from the Japanese.

What should we do to create a more favorable development environment for children, to become civilized citizens both domestically and abroad?

Education in schools and family activities need to integrate education on community responsibility and environmental protection. Schools need to have strict regulations for maintaining cleanliness in classrooms and schools. Families need to educate and guide their children in maintaining cleanliness in the home, in recreational activities, on picnics, and in events.

To become a civilized citizen in lifestyle, each of us needs to become a "camera" to remind and give positive feedback to each other in protecting and maintaining public hygiene.

Schools, families, and society need to invest in trash cans to meet the amount of waste. If we only use educational philosophy through words without specific actions and clear, consistent regulations, the lack of awareness and images of waste after events will continue to recur.

Of course, education is not about “lecturing” children about morality, but about transmitting messages to them and creating a favorable environment for them to grow and develop. People who live in an environment that promotes civilized behavior will certainly develop civilized behavior. Therefore, schools and families need to create an environment that guides children towards noble values.

Don't focus on the high scores that children bring home, but aim for the goals of character education. Then, the future generations of children will have beautiful and civilized behaviors whether at home or in society, whether domestically or internationally.

Thank you!
