It attracted the participation of nearly 50 golfers, including Vietnamese people, and local officials, diplomats and entrepreneurs of Belgium and several surrounding countries.

This year’s tournament raised a total of over EUR7,000 (US$8,170). Held annually since 2015, the tournament has to date collected more than EUR30,700, which was used to build 13 houses, provide financial support for 16 households, and present scholarships and gifts to children who are dioxin victims.
