They also gave some suggestions to make the raising of support for their calamity-stricken fellow countrymen at home more effective. Over the past months, Vietnamese people residing and working in the Netherlands have contributed over €4,500 (or nearly VND100 million) to calamity-stricken victims at home.
Vietnamese Ambassador to Holland Hà Huy Thông expressed his gratitude to the good sentiment and kindness of the Vietnamese community in the Netherlands towards typhoon-hit people at home and his hope that charity activities like this will be further developed.
