“KCN Vietnam - Connect for Good” journey reaffirms KCN Vietnam’s commitment to long-term collaboration with local communities

These activities are part of the Group’s corporate social responsibility (CSR) program “KCN Vietnam – Connect for Good,” which is built around two key pillars: Housing Support Program, aimed at improving living conditions for workers; and Children & Education Support Program, which focuses on nurturing future generations and developing a high-quality workforce for Vietnam. This initiative underscores KCN Vietnam Group’s strong commitment to ESG principles and reflects its long-term dedication to fostering sustainable development and community well-being across the localities where it operates.

In the fourth quarter of 2025, KCN Vietnam Group, in collaboration with Lao Dong Newspaper, will carry out key CSR activities worth VND 400 million across four provinces and cities: Tay Ninh, Dong Nai, Bac Ninh, and Haiphong. The program will support the construction or renovation of homes for workers in need, contributing to the “Mai am Cong Doan” (Union Shelter) initiative led by the Vietnam General Confederation of Labor. In addition, KCN Vietnam will award scholarships to children of workers from disadvantaged families with outstanding academic achievements, as well as provide financial and facility support to vocational colleges. Through these efforts, KCN Vietnam aims to enhance learning environments and develop technical skills, particularly in fields such as electronics and high technology, areas that are critical to Vietnam’s long-term workforce development and industrial competitiveness.

At the signing ceremony, Mr. Hardy Diec, Chief Operating Officer (COO) of KCN Vietnam Group, shared: “Community engagement has always been at the heart of KCN Vietnam’s vision and mission, and it represents a core pillar of our ESG strategy. Through the ‘KCN Vietnam – Connect for Good’ initiative, we aspire to make a tangible contribution to the socio-economic development of the localities where we operate. This program reflects our long-term commitment to fostering sustainable growth and building a better future together with the communities around us.”

Marking the first milestone of this meaningful journey, on November 1, 2025, KCN Vietnam Group delivered the first round of community support in Tay Ninh Province. The Group sponsored the construction of a home for a worker under the “Mai am Cong doan” (Union Shelter) program and awarded 25 scholarships to students from local workers' disadvantaged families. This timely initiative provided not only practical support to improve living conditions but also brought encouragement, helping workers’ families achieve greater stability and giving their children the opportunity to continue their education with confidence.

Speaking at the event, Mr. Nguyen Hoai Thanh, Vice Chairman of the Tay Ninh Provincial Labor Federation, shared: “We highly value KCN Vietnam’s partnership and long-term vision through the ‘KCN Vietnam – Connect for Good’ program. The company’s support not only provides meaningful assistance in helping workers secure stable housing, but also contributes to improving the quality of education and vocational training, supporting the province’s goal of developing a skilled workforce to meet its socio-economic growth targets in the year ahead.”

Following the first activities in Tay Ninh, the ‘KCN Vietnam – Connect for Good’ journey will continue in Dong Nai, Bac Ninh, and Haiphong throughout 2025. The program is expected to benefit more workers and students from disadvantaged backgrounds, extending its positive impacts and reaffirming KCN Vietnam Group’s long-term commitment to corporate social responsibility and community development.
