The event formed part of charity activities jointly carried out by the embassy and community organisations.

Second Secretary at the Vietnamese embassy Vu Duc Minh told the Vietnam News Agency (VNA)’s correspondents that the COVID-19 pandemic has caused a range of difficulties to Vietnamese in the locality.

Ismail, one of the beneficiaries who belong to the Cham group, said he has lived in Malaysia for more than three decades.

The necessities and medical supplies will help us to overcome the difficulties, he said, expressing his thanks to the embassy and donors for their valuable support.
