Mr Sawa Shunji, CVN General Director, directly handed over these new bikes to underprivileged pupils who have excellent academic results, are living in poor families, far from the school or have no means of transportation. The new bikes (worth VND170 million) will help them to go to school safely and more convenient.

Beneficiaries of this year’s program (deployed since 2012) are Huong Lam secondary school (Hiep Hoa district), Lang Giang No.3 high school (Lang Giang district), Tien Son secondary school (Viet Yen district), Yen Lu secondary school (Yen Dung district), receiving 25 new bikes each. While Huong Son secondary school (Lang Giang district), Yen Dung No.2 high school (Yen Dung district), Bac Ly secondary school (Hiep Hoa district), Luc Nam high school (Luc Nam district) from the 2015 program were presented 40 bikes; and Tan Son secondary school from Luc Ngan district of the 2012 program received 10 bikes.

“Pupils are the future of each nation. Education development plays an important role. Canon Vietnam understands this issue, and wishes to bring the best things for pupils in particular and Vietnamese society in general. I do hope these new bikes will be used effectively, safely and durably”, said Mr Sawa Shunji.

On October 22nd, the Japanese Company is scheduled to present 130 bikes to 11 schools in Tien Du, Gia Binh, Yen Phong and Luong Tai districts of the Northern Bac Ninh province
