Photo series: The kind-hearted spirit of Dong Nai’s people spreads across flood-stricken regions

In 2025, successive waves of natural disasters and severe flooding swept across the northern, central, and Central Highlands regions, causing considerable loss of life and property. In response, Dong Nai province promptly launched multiple donation drives to join hands in supporting affected localities in their recovery efforts and helping residents stabilise their lives as soon as possible.

The spirit of unity, compassion, and mutual support spread strongly among the people, from the elderly to young children. Across communes, wards, agencies, units, and businesses, people enthusiastically joined donation activities, sending their heartfelt support to fellow citizens in the central region who are striving to overcome the aftermath of floods and storms.
