After the 50th anniversary of the Liberation of the South and National Reunification Day (April 30, 1975 - April 30, 2025), social networks spread many videos with content, reflecting some students' inappropriate and impolite behavior towards veterans while attending the ceremony. Through verification, they were students of Van Lang University and Ho Chi Minh City University of Technology.
Van Lang University said it is verifying to handle the student accused of being unjust to the person wearing the military uniform at the parade on the morning of April 30.
According to Ho Chi Minh City University of Technology, the student himself has sent his sincere apologies to the veterans and the community, and expressed deep regret for his wrongdoings and asked for an opportunity to become more mature after his mistakes.
Seeing the recorded images shows that the students have behaved incorrectly. Since entering school, students have been taught "before and after school". The ceremony is not only for grandparents, parents, teachers, but also for the elderly. In this incident, the people whose students did not give up were not only people worthy of their grandparents' age, but they were also veterans.
The students have an immature attitude, not worthy of being a young man who is well-educated and well-educated. Your impolite behavior towards your elderly people will certainly be very upset.
You are handsome young men, university students, going out must give priority to women, children, the elderly, the disabled, that is cultural and civilized behavior.
Dr. Nguyen Quoc Anh - Vice Principal of Ho Chi Minh City University of Technology - shared: "Through the incident, we hope that every HUTECH student - and more broadly, every young person today - will reconsider their sense of personal responsibility in their public behavior and speech. In an era where every behavior can be recorded and spread in just a few seconds, behavioral culture, gratitude and respect are not only a thing that should be, but a must be".
However, everyone makes mistakes at times, if there are regrets, the community also needs to be tolerant. Universities where students are studying will correct and correct their mistakes, but should also create opportunities for them to study and mature.
