These days, trucks carrying goods and essential supplies from the people of Nghe An are lining up to travel north to support their compatriots in the flood-stricken areas.
These days, people in Nghe An – whether farmers, fishmongers, elderly people, or students – upon hearing news of the devastating floods and the immense losses suffered by their compatriots in the North, are all willing to contribute their efforts and resources for their fellow countrymen in the North.

However, upon hearing that there was a collection point in Nam Đàn for goods to be sent to the North, she transported life jackets, grains, water, etc., which she considered: "Contributing a small effort to encourage the people. It's not much, but it's a gesture of love and compassion, in the spirit of 'helping those in need'."
