Bachelor of Philosophy, passionate about youth union activities and journalism

An article by a contributor has fundamentally changed the life of Luu Van Hoa. His parents died of HIV, and his grandmother passed away due to old age, leaving the Thai boy in Ke Ninh village, Chau Hanh commune (Quy Chau) homeless. From the article by author Luong Nga, charitable organizations learned about Hoa's situation. They helped the 4th grade student, who lived alone in a makeshift bamboo hut, to have a solid house to protect him from the rain and sun.

The full name of the author of the article is Luong Thi Nga, currently the Deputy Secretary of the Youth Union of Chau Hanh commune, Quy Chau district. Graduated from Hanoi Pedagogical University 1 in 2014, Nga returned to her locality to work and was elected Secretary of the Youth Union of Hua Na village (Chau Hanh commune). Shortly after, the female pedagogical graduate born in 1991 was elected to the Executive Committee of the Youth Union of Chau Hanh commune and held the position of Deputy Secretary.

In this role, she has brought into play the enthusiastic and lively nature of a young Thai girl. In the "schedule" of a mountainous commune union officer, Luong Nga cannot remember how many activities she has been involved in. It could be guiding students in summer exercise, participating in organizing the Mid-Autumn Festival and many community and extracurricular activities for children. In particular, this lively and energetic girl also contributed to maintaining the free wardrobe of Quy Chau District Union by mobilizing thousands of sets of clothes in 2016, 2017...

Nga is also a pioneer in participating in movements and competitions organized by the Youth Union at all levels such as: "Green Sunday", instructing life skills for teenagers and children, planting flowers at martyrs' cemeteries... Despite her poor health, this young cadre has donated blood twice to save lives. She won second prize in the "Excellent Youth Union Cadre" competition in Quy Chau district in 2016.

Writing is a great passion of the young girl. For more than a year now, the articles of the Bachelor of Philosophy have appeared regularly in Nghe An Daily and Nghe An Electronic Newspaper. The topics are about the youth movement, youth activities, sports, culture, customs and especially volunteer activities in the area. The young writer pays special attention to the less fortunate fates, the elderly, the sick, and orphans. Many articles have received a response from the community. There have been individuals and groups following the addresses in the newspaper to help the fates that Nga reflected in the newspaper.

Luong Thi Nga's efforts have been recognized by authorities at all levels and sectors. From 2015 to 2017, she received many Certificates of Merit, including the Certificate of Merit from the Vietnam Youth Union of Nghe An province in 2017. Also from June 2017, she was honored to join the Party.

Luong Thi Nga shared that this Tet holiday, she will use all the royalties earned from writing articles for a month to buy warm clothes and Tet gifts for some disadvantaged children in Quy Chau district. “I know I will not be able to take care of all disadvantaged children. But I will try my best to bring joy to some children in special circumstances in the new year.”
