The gifts were funded by Korea Food for the Hungry International (KFHI) Vietnam, a non-profit organisation based in the Republic of Korea. The program aims to motivate, encourage the learning spirit of disadvantaged students to rise in learning and helping them have a happy Tet.

In 2017, KFHI conducted numerous charity activities in the province at a total cost of more than VND 2.3 billion (USD 101,000). It will give 300 more Tet gifts to needy children in the locality, worth over 114 million VND (USD 5,000).

The same day, a unit under the Hanoi Red Cross Society held a ceremony to hand over nine charity houses and 200 Tet gifts to poor households and Agent Orange (AO)/Dioxin victims in six communes of Lap Thach district./.

In 1989, Korea Food for the Hungry International, as the first officially registered overseas aid NGO, spearheaded Korea from receiving to giving nation. Today, KFHI is a global partnership that focuses on poverty needs that relate to food and nutrition, water resource development, primary health care and income enhancement. KFHI also assists in the areas of education, empowering indigenous organisations, and child development while providing relief and rehabilitation with emergency health response.

Now, 1,131 Hunger Corps and 4,500 staffs are committed to various development projects and emergency aid in 80 countries of all over the world.

The Bonds Between People Are Why I Love Viet Nam

Speaking about Viet Nam, where I currently live and work, brings me many emotions. What I notice most clearly about Ha Noi is the increasingly rapid pace of change across society. Residential complexes, shopping malls, roads and new bridges are continuously being built throughout the city. Some places have changed dramatically in just a few months. Particularly recently, it is easy to see that Hanoi is implementing major projects on drainage and water treatment to reduce flooding. This shows that the Government is taking urban infrastructure improvement very seriously.

30 Minutes of “Quintessential Viet Nam” Every Day

Affection for a country can stem from the simplest of things. For Kaneya Manabu, a Japanese national who formerly served as a police officer in Saitama Prefecture and later chose to make Viet Nam his home, one such thing is the workplace lunch nap. Though it lasts only about 30 minutes a day, this habit has given him a deeper appreciation for the local rhythm of life and a distinctly Vietnamese approach to balancing work and personal time.
