He will be remembered forever for his contribution to bilateral relations and humanitarian work. The entire staff of the British Embassy in Hanoi and the Consulate General in Ho Chi Minh City join me in sending our deepest condolences to his family and friends.”

As a world-renowned peace activist, Mr. Len Aldis has long devoted much of his life to helping victims of Agent Orange/dioxin in Vietnam.

Mr. Len Aldis often comes to Vietnam to help victims of Agent Orange/dioxin with many practical actions. Having accompanied war victims for many years, especially those who still suffer from the severe consequences of American bombs containing Agent Orange, Mr. Len Aldis has contributed a strong voice to condemn the consequences of Agent Orange on many generations of Vietnamese people./.
