Ho Chi Minh City Committee for Overseas Vietnamese allowed me to directly give gifts and acknowledge the forces' difficulties. I am touched and grateful for them. They have mobilized all forces to participate in the fight against the pandemic, bringing peace and safety to the residents. I think it is absolutely right to return to Vietnam to expand my business and contribute to the country.”
