"Through Nghe An Newspaper, I would like to express my deep gratitude to the agencies, departments, and organizations of Thanh Chuong district and Thanh Phong commune who, despite the danger, helped me save my property, evacuate cows, chickens, and ducks at night, and supported me when the flood had just receded; thank you to the philanthropists across the country and Mr. and Mrs. Thuy Tien - Cong Vinh for giving me more motivation to start over. I will try my best not to let everyone down," Nguyen Duy Diep shared.
