Welcoming the 1st Congress of the Vietnam Fatherland Front of Khanh Hoa province, term 2025 - 2030: Sharing hearts to connect love

The floods in late November caused heavy damage to many people in the province. In that difficult time, the Vietnam Fatherland Front Committee of Khanh Hoa province quickly promoted its central role in solidarity, calling for and receiving relief resources from everywhere, promptly distributing them to the affected areas, helping people to soon stabilize their lives.

Hearts for people in flood areas

For nearly half a month now, the headquarters of the Vietnam Fatherland Front Committee of the province has been lit up from early morning to late night to receive support from agencies, organizations, units, businesses, armed forces, people of all walks of life, overseas Vietnamese, the community, international friends... to join hands to overcome the damage caused by floods in the province.

Comrade Tran Thu Mai gave gifts to encourage the family of Mrs. Luu Thi Kim Cuong (Phu Hau village, Suoi Hiep commune).

Among those people was Mr. Jean Mrec Poufsan (a foreign tourist). When watching TV news and images on the Internet about the heavy damage caused by floods in Khanh Hoa , he went directly to the Vietnam Fatherland Front Committee of the province to donate 40 million VND with the hope that this support would help people overcome difficulties soon and spread the spirit of sharing in the community. Coming to donate his savings, Tran Nguyen Duy Thien - a student of Xuong Huan Primary School (Nha Trang ward) shared: "My house was lucky not to be flooded, seeing my friends in the flooded area, I felt so sorry for them so I broke my piggy bank and had 500,000 VND brought by my relatives to support. I just hope that the friends in the flooded area will soon stabilize, have a warm place to live, have rice to eat and have school supplies."
