Going to a large shopping mall in Long Bien district with his family, Mr. Le Quang Dat (born in 1998, in Gia Lam, Hanoi) said that yesterday (January 24), he had just finished his last working day. This afternoon, he and his wife and parents went to the supermarket to shop, eat, and have fun.
"I want all members to be able to choose Tet items in one shopping trip," said Mr. Dat, holding a bill that was more than 2 meters long.
