Betibuti expert Le Nhat Phuong Hong said: "I am really impressed with the number of participants today, which is four times bigger than it was in 2015. Hue is also the city with the second highest number of participants, just following Hanoi at the present time. The number of parents and grandparents participating in the program shows that they are very interested in raising children, helping them grow well in a scientific way. This is a good sign."
