Held from February 27-March 2 at Siam Paragon Shopping Center in Bangkok, the event themed “Miracle of Giving” united 56 embassies in Thailand to raise funds for charitable activities, with proceeds supporting the TRCS's missions in relief efforts, welfare, medical treatment, and support for the disadvantaged and those affected by natural disasters.

Vietnamese Ambassador Pham Viet Hung and his spouse Ho Thi Thu Trang attended the opening ceremony on February 27, graced by Princess Maha Chakri Sirindhorn, TRCS Executive Vice President.
They later explored a photo exhibition “20 Years of Miracle of Giving,” and mingled at the bustling booths featuring 246 displays of affordable fashion, accessories, food, and home décor.
The Vietnamese Embassy also encouraged Vietnamese firms in Thailand to join the cause, with Dong Nam A handicrafts company running a standout booth and donating round-trip flight tickets between Thailand and Vietnam as lucky draw prizes. Embassy staff went all in, demonstrating their support by snapping up lottery tickets.
As the result, the Vietnamese booth drew crowds of foreign visitors, dazzled by artisan crafts from Vietnam’s traditional villages, including delicate kaolin stone, buffalo horn, mother-of-pearl, seashell, and woodwork pieces.
