Mr. Johnathan Hanh Nguyen shared: "After watching the videos of the charity programs in Vietnam by the wives of the Consuls General, I was really moved. These actions touched my heart. It is not about money but about meaningful actions for the Vietnamese people by diplomats and foreigners living in Vietnam. As a Vietnamese citizen, I feel obliged to join hands with diplomats to do more good things for the Vietnamese people. We need your support to help our country develop more. We need a united world and forget about Covid and war. Let's join hands to help make life better for all humanity."
