those who are working to encourage study, enthusiasm is just not enough; they
have to do it with a bright heart, passion and proper understanding of the
local situation. Moreover, they are also needed to keep close tracks of poor
families whose children are in school age, in order to encourage and help them
to facilitate their children’s schooling”.

the staff patiently go to see poor families who have school-aged children to
present gifts such as books, notebooks or pens, in order to encourage the
parents to let their child to go to school. Besides, he also encourages
individuals and organizations to raise funds to help these poor children, so
that they can try harder in their study to gain better academic outcome. On the

dongs.

concern. He also pays special attention to the education of localities in rural
and mountainous areas, especially areas with extremely difficult social –
economic situation. He said: "The majority of people in these areas only
finished high school, some even below that level. Therefore, it is necessary to
encourage them to enroll in courses provided by local profession training
centers or community education centers. However, this practice is not simple at

encouragement must help them feel passion of learning and make them realize

improve their life quality. In 2017, there were 26,804 people enrolled in the
