MESSAGE FROM CHAIRMAN

Dear Members,

I believe most of you did return to Vietnam after the TET Holidays. It is a trying time to start the New Year with the present situation with the Novel Corona virus.

Vietnam Government and Agencies is putting the whole country on high alert. Daily new policies are taking effect to avoid the spreading of the virus.

I believe most important for us is to stay informed and work together in this difficult time. I am not in the position to give advice or instructions on what we have to do. I can only recommend to follow the local Government advice. Most important is to keep up our own hygiene. Wash your hands often. Avoid going to crowded places and wear a mask if you must.

We should all work together during this unfortunate situation. If you have any question regarding travel updates for example, you may contact our Secretariat and we will do our best to coordinate necessary information from all sources to share with the membership.

Taking the opportunity, I wish you and your family good health. Chuc Mung Nam Moi.

Please find some general reference information for your reference.
