Speaking at the opening ceremony, Director of the Department of Labor, Invalids and Social Affairs Doan Hong Vu said: This year's Mid-Autumn Festival is very special after we had to go through two Mid-Autumn Festivals with many difficulties due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

During that time, the children of SOS Children's Villages tried and made efforts with their mothers, families and the Village to overcome difficulties and also achieved many good results in studying, cultivating and training.
