Vietnamese society in Germany builds classrooms in northern Vietnam
Children from a province in northern Vietnam can now feel excited, as they have a new place to enrich knowledge in comfort.
Two new classrooms funded by a society that supports the Vietnamese in Germany were inaugurated on February 26 in Yen Bai Province.
The rooms of the Lien Son Village school, located in Lang Thip Commune, Van Yen District, were handed over to local authorities during a ceremony held by Tuoi Tre (Youth) newspaper and the Vietnamesisches Studienwerk in der BRD e.V (VSW).
The VSW, or the Vietnam Study and Work in Germany, covered VND350 million (US$15,683) out of the total VND400 million (US$19,724) cost of the classrooms, whereas the Van Yen authorities paid for the remaining.

Dang Van Cham, a member of the VSW, said he was so touched to see there was too much difficulty for teachers and students in the commune.
At the inauguration ceremony, the VSW handed plenty of warm clothes, boots, and assortments to the teachers and students.
Lang Thip Commune comprises 19 villages, over half of which are in severe poverty.
