No opening ceremony, hope partners convert flower gift cost into money to support flood areas
Ho Chi Minh City University of Agriculture and Forestry refused to accept congratulatory flowers from agencies, businesses, and partners at the opening ceremony held this morning (September 16) for a special reason.
The school informed: "In the context of storm No. 3 causing extremely heavy damage, with the spirit of mutual love and sharing, the school wishes to join with agencies, units and partners to support the people of the North with the most practical feelings and actions."
At the same time, the school hopes that the cost of giving flowers will be transferred by the partner to the Northern Compatriots Support Fund of the Vietnam Fatherland Front of Ho Chi Minh City, to contribute a part of the cost to overcome the damage caused by storm No. 3.
Towards the North with practical actions
In the recent opening ceremony, the University of Natural Sciences - Ho Chi Minh City National University mobilized and called on all delegates, guests, civil servants and students to turn to the people of the North with the most practical actions. The school informed the accounts calling for support of the Vietnam Fatherland Front so that everyone could support people in flood-hit areas.

No opening ceremony
Previously, the University of Social Sciences and Humanities (VNU-HCM) decided not to hold the opening ceremony of the 2024-2025 school year to use funds to support people in flood-hit areas.
The entire cost of organizing the opening ceremony, 100 million VND, will be transferred to the Central Committee of the Vietnam Fatherland Front. In addition, the school is also launching and calling on officials, employees and students to continue to contribute to support the program.
“Although we know this is always a special occasion in the hearts of every young person and new student, the school believes that this year's opening ceremony is truly meaningful. And the most important thing at this time is the tradition of solidarity and mutual love of... the Humanists,” said the school leader.
The school leaders also hope that students, partners, employees, and parents will understand, sympathize, support, and accompany the school.
