On September 17, the Da Nang tourism industry raised a total of nearly 2.1 billion VND. This amount will be sent to the Vietnam Fatherland Front Committee of Da Nang City to support flood victims.
In addition, the Da Nang Department of Tourism has called on the Da Nang Tourism Association, businesses and civil servants to continue spreading the spirit of mutual love and support, mobilizing employees and workers to participate in support until October 10.
Director of Da Nang Department of Tourism Truong Thi Hong Hanh said that the sharing and support at this time is a great source of encouragement, demonstrating the noble sentiment of compatriots, contributing to reducing pain, supporting people in disaster-stricken areas to soon restore production and stabilize their lives.
Previously, on September 16, the Office of the People's Committee of Da Nang City participated in supporting people affected by storm No. 3. Promoting the tradition of solidarity, mutual love, and helping each other, all officials, civil servants, public employees and workers of the Office of the People's Committee of Da Nang City donated to share and provide relief to people in the northern localities with a total amount of VND 112,578,515 (including on-site support and 1 day's salary).
Together with the Da Nang government, people have also had many practical and meaningful activities towards the people in the North such as wrapping banh chung, giving life jackets, mobilizing human resources to support... Trucks loaded with "love" and essential items and necessities have been rolling towards the North.
Many residential areas in the city have been burning all night to cook and send food to people in flooded areas. Kindergarten students have been collecting old sandals to send to children in the highlands.
People on An Hai Dong 1 Street (Son Tra District) worked together overnight to wrap Chung cakes to send to people in the flood-hit areas of the North. Ms. Ho Thi Doa (a resident of Son Tra District) said: "We didn't tell each other, each person had a job, some washed dong leaves, some wrapped the cakes... Hopefully we can help people in the flood-hit areas reduce some of their difficulties."
In Ngu Hanh Son district, people used more than 100kg of sticky rice to wrap Chung cakes to send to people in flooded areas. With more than 100kg of sticky rice and 30kg of green beans, people had to constantly light the stove and wash the rice continuously to cook the cakes in time.
Hopefully, the sharing of Da Nang people will be a valuable source of encouragement, helping people in the North soon overcome difficulties and gradually stabilize their lives.
