Bringing spring to students with disabilities.

TPO - Amidst the year-end chill of Da Lat, these "silent" cakes have become a bridge of love, bringing the spirit of spring to disabled students at the Cam Ly Center for Inclusive Education Development Support.

On February 9th, the Lam Dong Provincial Police announced that the Mobile Police Unit had coordinated with other organizations to make banh chung (traditional Vietnamese rice cakes) to celebrate the Lunar New Year for hearing-impaired children at the Cam Ly Center for Inclusive Education Development Support.

Without loud loudspeakers or boisterous laughter, the center welcomes the spring with glances, gestures, and quiet hands wrapping love in each green sticky rice cake.

These square-shaped banh chung cakes not only contain sticky rice, beans, and meat, but also embody sharing, empathy, and love.

The image that moved many people was the moment when the riot police officers, accustomed to training grounds and arduous tasks, bent down meticulously to arrange leaves and pour sticky rice.

For the hearing-impaired students at the center, the world is silent, but it is precisely this silence that makes human connection resonate more powerfully than ever before.

There was a girl who was wrapping the rice cakes for the first time, her hands clumsy, spilling sticky rice, but all she received in return was a gentle smile and strong hands that carefully adjusted each corner of the cake.

Ms. Nguyen Tran Minh Thu, Secretary of the Teachers' Youth Union at the Cam Ly Center for Inclusive Education Development Support, said that the activity of making banh chung (traditional Vietnamese rice cakes) during Tet (Lunar New Year) is not only a material gift but also helps students with disabilities experience the spring atmosphere, understand and preserve traditional cultural values, and feel the care of the community.

"You may not hear the sounds of spring, but you can feel the love so clearly through every glance and every handshake. That is the greatest gift we wish to give you," Ms. Thu said.
