Dear friends,
HELVETAS/CRED would like to thank you on behalf of the community in Suoi Thau village for your contribution towards construction of the concrete road. 24 million VND has been donated by you, another 28 million by CRED and 2 million from Footprint. Furthermore the Hoang Su Phi authority has allocated budget to buy more cement for the community and make the road a total lenth of 180 metres with 3.5m wide and 13cm thick that meet to the new rural road criteria.
Many thanks also to those that talked about their experience during the trip for our promotion video by our cameraman Ryan Vickers. If you have not seen it already you can watch it here
Ha Giang TV also made a video about the trip
Furthermore the following articles about the trip were published:
- Developing Community-based tourism in Hoang Su Phi & Cao Bang
- Norel wins international off-road cycling tournament in Ha Giang
In the next edition of Word Vietnam Magazine there will be a photo essay about the trip. You can download the magazine at www.wordvietnam.com.
We are still looking forward to receive your best pictures of the trip. You can upload them to google drive via this link:
