The event was attended by representatives of SABECO, Communist Youth Union and relevant sectors and departments, Miss Vietnam Tran Tieu Vy and Phuong Anh, along with other media partners.

This symbolized the start of the "Tet One Home" journey, bringing groups of workers and youth union members back home to celebrate a warm TET with families after a year of upheaval due Covid-19.

Prior to this ceremony, the program has also distributed 800 sets of TET gift to workers and Covid prevention volunteers in Quang Ninh, Ha Noi, Thu Duc and Cu Chi, HCMC.  These are the recipients who had to remain in their work areas throughout TET period.

With the spirit of "Tet - Stronger Together", Tet One Home" program aims to provide opportunities to these beneficiaries to return home, and celebrate the spirit of unity, togetherness and solidarity with family as well as friends. We hope the spirit of national unity will be embraced by every home across the regions as one Vietnam during this most auspicious moment of the Vietnamese New Year”.

In the course of implementation, the program has noted the active participation of workers who have achieved good results and of the pandemic prevention volunteer force in 2021.

At the ceremony, Ms. Nguyen Pham Duy Trang – Secretary of  Ho Chi Minh Communist Youth Union said: In the coming time, the Secretariat of the Ho Chi Minh Communist Youth Union wishes that the young workers, students, and volunteers will always maintain the spirit of optimism, constantly strive to overcome all difficulties and difficulties due to the epidemic, continue to contribute their youth and enthusiasm,  further promote the creative, industrious and hard-working qualities to further successfully complete the assigned tasks, contributing strongly to the development of the unit and of Ho Chi Minh City.

In the past three years, Bia Saigon has implemented many initiatives and programs for communities and laborers who had achieved outstanding results at work and provided Tet gift and homecoming tickets for workers. In 2021, Bia Saigon has cooperated with the Central Vietnam Youth Federation and the Communist Youth Union to implement "Community Care", which provided medical equipments and supplies to hospitals and frontline forces in the fight against Covid-19, and 5000 necessities to struggling household.  In addition to this, another joint program "Collecting a million stars" was launched to rally everyone in Vietnam to spread the spirit of 'Stronger Together', while supporting 600 struggling F&B household businesses in HCMC.
