Nghe An Newspaper quoted the speech of Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee Nguyen Van Thong at the launching ceremony of the 2020 Summer Youth Volunteer Campaign:

..."Recently, the provincial leaders have been very excited about the volunteer activities of young people, in which the most prominent are the volunteer activities for community life and social security organized by the Youth Union and the Vietnam Youth Union of Nghe An province. Many activities have been highly appreciated by Party committees at all levels, authorities and public opinion, attracting and gathering a large number of union members, youth and people to participate.

The programs and movements implemented have demonstrated the creativity, sensitivity and responsibility of the Youth Union, Association and Nghe An youth in response to the issues raised by the locality and unit. Each movement and campaign marks the maturity of the Youth Union and Association and also leaves its mark on the socio-economic development of the province. This shows the deep awareness of the cadres and the majority of youth union members about the role and responsibility of youth towards the homeland and country in the period of industrialization and modernization.

The youth volunteer movement, the culmination of which is the activities in the annual Summer Youth Volunteer Campaign, has developed its strength with the wide gathering of youth forces throughout society. This is also the environment and conditions for young people to promote their pioneering spirit, volunteerism and creativity.

The activities of the youth of the whole province in the Summer Youth Volunteer Campaign have made an important contribution to the work of hunger eradication and poverty reduction, ensuring social security, and importantly, have aroused the spirit of mutual love and support, the community's responsibility to share and help people and children in difficult areas, remote areas, border areas...

In order for the 2020 Summer Youth Volunteer Campaign to achieve its set goals, on behalf of the provincial leaders, I propose that the Youth Union, Association, and Young Pioneers at all levels in the province need to closely direct, have programs and plans to coordinate and organize activities in a scientific and specific manner; must be based on the socio-economic development tasks of the province, of each locality and linked to the needs and legitimate interests of young people.

The Campaign's activities need to be organized creatively, effectively, practically and economically; must ensure safety and professionalism in volunteer activities, and use operational effectiveness as a measure to evaluate the movement.

Focus on directing, innovating methods, expanding areas, aiming at promoting the knowledge and youth strength of youth to participate in solving practical social problems that are being raised and demanded by youth. At the same time, closely coordinate with all levels, sectors, and localities; mobilize all resources in society, call for support from all levels, sectors, individuals and organizations to participate in the Campaign, and at the same time encourage and attract the participation of many youth union members, students and pupils in the province to bring about practical results.

I also recommend that the youth union members, students and pupils in the whole province promote their youth and volunteer to come to the people, to the youth and pupils in the disadvantaged areas, remote areas; actively and effectively participate in solving the problems arising in the community such as: joining hands to build new rural areas, civilized urban areas, accompanying and sharing with fishermen, participating in hunger eradication and poverty reduction, economic development, taking care of people's health, supporting schooling, supporting exam season, activities of "Repaying gratitude", "When drinking water, remember its source", protecting the ecological environment, traffic safety, etc.

Through meaningful practical activities, it will help young union members, students and pupils increase their life experiences and practical knowledge, nurture and multiply in the young generation the attachment, love and sense of responsibility towards the people, homeland and country, increase the prestige, attractiveness and ability to gather young people of the Union and Association, contributing to the successful implementation of the resolutions of the Party and the Union.

With confidence in the desire to contribute and the spirit of volunteering of the youth, I firmly believe that the 2020 Summer Youth Volunteer Campaign of the province's youth will achieve good results, which will be an important premise and foundation for the work of the Youth Union and the youth movement in the following years"...
