According to Le Hoai Trung, many overseas Vietnamese communities in countries such as Germany, France, the Czech Republic, Laos, and Cambodia raised billions of Vietnamese dong. Despite their own difficulties, Vietnamese communities in countries like Cuba (VND 154 million), Mongolia (VND 181 million), and Belarus (VND 19 million) also actively participated.

He affirmed that the donated resources would be distributed appropriately, transparently, and in accordance with legal regulations. He also called on all Vietnamese people, both at home and abroad, to continue upholding the nation’s long-standing tradition of mutual support and compassion to help those in flood-affected areas overcome their hardships.
