According to Mr. Do Quang Ba, Chairman of FAVIJA, this is not only a sports playground, training health but also becomes an indispensable spiritual food for young Vietnamese people living abroad. Young Vietnamese people who love football have the opportunity to indulge their passion for the ball and it is also an opportunity for our overseas Vietnamese to meet and exchange with each other, strengthen solidarity in the community as well as tighten the close and friendly relationship between our overseas Vietnamese and the local people.
