The hand-over ceremony on May 25 gave Mayor Müller the perfect platform to extend his profound gratitude to the association for offering such a practical gift to help the people of Berlin overcome this challenging period, VOV reported.
At the ceremony, Berlin Mayor appreciated the volunteer activities of the Vietnamese community in Germany and in Berlin.
He also thanked the Golden Lotus charity group for giving the people of Berlin the practical and meaningful gifts.
For his part, Vietnamese Ambassador to Germany, Nguyen Minh Vu stressed that the Vietnamese Government, localities and organisations in Vietnam have shown solidarity and spirit of mutual support during difficult times with the German people by presenting masks and other medical equipment.
Despite many difficulties in the pandemic, the Vietnamese community in Germany not only supported and helped each other, but also launched campaigns to work with the German people in the battle against COVID-19, he said.
The campaigns have attracted the participation of numerous Vietnamese people throughout Germany as hundreds of thousands of face masks and medical supplies have been sent out to organisations, hospitals, schools, and nursing homes.
Moreover, the Vietnamese community living in Germany will continue to make a positive contribution to the general socio-economic activities of the European nation, especially during the course of the COVID-19 crisis, and will serve as a bridge between the two countries, contributing to bolstering the friendly relations that exist.
