Speaking at the event, head of the association Duong Trung Duc reviewed negative effects caused by COVID-19 for Vietnamese in Macau (China), saying many lost their jobs and others could not return home due to the postponement of commercial flights.
According to him, receiving assistance from the Vietnamese Consulate General in Hong Kong and Macau (China) and recognition of the local administration, the association, established in November last year, has so far operated well and significantly supported Vietnamese expatriates in legal consultations, organisation of flights, and unemployment aid, among other aspects.
The gathering aims at reminding the community about their responsibilities for the home country, particularly via building a good image of Vietnamese people overseas and making efforts to overcome obstacles and contribute to Vietnam.
