As many as 55 students and 28 ambassadors who are composers, singers and artists have registered to join the 5th event, which connects Ho Chi Minh city to Long An and Ben Tre, covering around 210 km.

The tour is projected to visit policy beneficiary families, host cultural exchange programs for local people, organize the “Kids and Dream” festival, present houses of affection and scholarships for poor pupils, visit historical and cultural relic sites, and join a commemoration ceremony to revolutionary martyrs.
