The top legislator presented a school-name board to the local primary and secondary school. 

 The school was built at a cost of 8.3 billion VND (356,900 USD), with donation by NA Chairwoman Ngan through the auction of the ball and jersey with the autographs of all members of Vietnam’s U23 team, the runners-up of the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) U23 Championship last year.     

 On this occasion, scholarships were presented to 50 local students in difficult circumstances.
