Responding to VOV, Le Thi Thu Thao, a student from the Faculty of Education, Tay Nguyen University and also a member of the group representing the Philippines said “I feel very happy and proud to deputize my faculty to participate in this contest. The Philippines and Vietnam have good ties; hence, it’s quite easy for me to look for information. The contest helps me a lot in getting a closer insight into the culture of the Philippines in particular and other countries in Southeast Asia in general".
Besides, the contest contributed to propagating, educating, and raising the awareness of students about the important role of the ASEAN community and their responsibilities in proactively equipping themselves with knowledge and skills.
