Speaking at the opening ceremony of the school on May 19, deputy chairman of Dak G'long District People's Committee, Nguyen Van Hop, said that with this facility, hundreds of students in the area won't have to travel up to 20 kilometres through rivers and difficult roads to school.

"Life in this area is very difficult as nearly 2,000 residents are living without tap water, electricity, telephone coverage, health centres, schools or proper roads," he said. "I believe that this school project will help change the lives of local people. We want to send our sincere thanks to Dantri Newspaper and TC MOTOR for this valuable support."
