According to officers and soldiers of Level 2 Field Hospital No. 6 (Vietnam Peacekeeping Department) on duty in South Sudan, while children around the world enjoy complete joy on Children's International Day, in the hot-smoked lands of South Sudan, children's smiles are always something fragile and rare.
Life in the International Civil Protection Area (IDP camp) - home to more than 120,000 people affected by the conflict - is a clear testament to the disadvantages that children here are suffering every day.
In that narrow and depleted campus, Banpa Primary School is one of only four schools that still maintains learning activities. With more than 2,200 students, there are only 11 temporary classrooms built with corrugated iron and wood, no doors, no fans, no full lighting - there are only blackboards for teachers and a few rows of long chairs for them to jostle each other to learn each word.
In that situation, officers and soldiers of the 2.6 Field Hospital on duty here took meaningful actions on June 1. Not only supporting the school with essential items such as notebooks, pens, and notebooks, but Vietnamese officials also presented 250 gifts to outstanding students - a gift that, although small, is a great source of encouragement for preschool children who are growing up in difficulty.
Not stopping there, in the face of the complicated chills situation in the IDP area, the working group also supported the school with antiseptic and soap solutions and organized an epidemic hygiene and prevention training session for teachers and students. It is not only a material gift, but also a sharing and spreading love from the blue Beret soldiers with the heart of Vietnam.
In the middle of the harsh and harsh African Africa, the presence of Vietnamese blue beret soldiers has been lighting up hope, spreading the human values, beautifying the image of the country in the eyes of international friends - especially in the hearts of Sudan male children. One day 1.6 is not complete, but still full of love.
