Focusing on developing souvenirs and gifts with Hue’s identity

In response to the appeal from the Vietnam Fatherland Front Committee of Hue City to support local residents in overcoming the consequences of natural disasters, on November 25, representatives of Wilmar CLV Vietnam Group visited the Committee to hand over a donation of 3.2 billion VND.

On November 20, Hue City Red Cross launched the program of presenting 1,000 gifts to households affected and damaged by the recent exceptionally severe floods. The funding was allocated by Vietnam Red Cross Central Committee through the “Joining Hands to Overcome Floods” program, aiming to promptly help residents stabilize their lives after the disaster.

Through the series of photos taken by the groups of photographers, including Truong Vung, Thang Phan, Bao Chau, and Le Hoang, the Photo Corner of Hue Today Weekly would like to convey the message “The floods have passed, but human compassion remains”.

The melancholic sound of the khen flute drifts through the mist along the mountain slopes, whispering in harmony with the babbling streams and the rhythmic clatter of looms, creating a mystical melody that captivates travelers. The village of A Luoi today bustles with visitors from afar, as the local people have learned to leverage their cultural identity for tourism. Behind these transformations are the tireless footsteps of a Pa Co woman who loves her homeland - That is Ms. Le Thi Them, the former Head of the Culture and Information Department of the former A Luoi District, now the Head of the Party Building Committee of A Luoi 1 Commune.

Recent floods and extreme weather events have severely affected the tourism industry. As a key economic sector, tourism must shift its mindset from passive response to proactive adaptation to enhance resilience against climate change.
