He said aside from continuing to intensively integrate into the local society, Vietnamese people in the Czech Republic have carried out many investment projects in the homeland along with charitable activities to assist the compatriots affected by natural disasters and epidemics.

The diplomat voiced his belief that the Vietnamese community in the European nation will maintain their solidarity, successfully integrate into the Czech society, and make more practical contribution to the homeland.
