"These days, the whole country is following the situation of storm No. 5, deeply sympathizing with the people of the affected provinces. At the same time, activities related to the 80th anniversary of National Day on September 2 are still being carried out as planned as an affirmation of the spiritual strength and indomitable will of the Vietnamese people. With that spirit, overcoming the unfavorable weather, the concert Vietnam in me is still being held to promote the spirit of Vietnam in me: pride, patriotism, sharing, mutual love and affection...", the Organizing Committee announced.

All preparations are still being urgently carried out.
