“Happy Full Moon 2016” – Glowing Mid-Autumn in Ba Tri District, Ben Tre Province

 

 

Whenever Mid-Autumn sets in, children all over the S-shaped strip of land eagerly anticipate their own festival. What’s more fun than they can enjoy these days by parading lanterns, eating traditional Mid-Autumn specialties and watching lion dance performance with their peers? However, for the poor children who have too little food to eat and even not enough clothing to wear, how could they be filled with joy in Mid-Autumn Festival? For that reason, the community’s concern and meaningful gifts will partly motivate and encourage these children to constantly strive their best in studying as well as their life.

 

As annually scheduled, A&C’s Management together with employees pulsates to prepare a joyful, meaningful and full-of-laughter program for indigent children in remote areas. In the current year, the Executive Board of Trade Union and the Youth Union, especially coordinating with the National Fund for Vietnamese Children in Ben Tre Province, have given indigent but studious children in Ba Tri District, Ben Tre Province a Mid-Autumn Festival.

 

As usually, Mid-Autumn program of this year has been planned for almost one month in advance. Thanks to the thoughtfulness of the Management and the youthful enthusiasm of the Company’s employees, the preparation has been carefully done, prospecting another accomplished Mid-Autumn festival. In the early dawn of 10 September 2016, almost 60 volunteers, including leaders and employees, were early present at the Company’s office and immersed in the excited atmosphere.

Before arriving at the Culture House in Ba Tri District to run the program, the whole crew had halted at Nguyen Dinh Chieu Temple to incense, visit his grave and listen the biography of Nguyen Dinh Chieu, a well-known writer during the resistance to French colonialism.

 

 

It was drizzling at that time in Ba Tri, Ben Tre, which did not favor our program. However, this situation not only caused no effect on the program, but also aroused enthusiasm and determination of all people.
