Mottainai 2018 Festive Day to take place in Hanoi
PANO – The Mottainai 2018 Festive Day entitled “Giving love – Receiving happiness” will be held by the Vietnamese Women Newspaper on October 13 on the pedestrian streets around Hoan Kiem Lake in Hanoi.
The program was based on activities of purchasing second-hand products to save money and avoid wastefulness in Japan. Mottainai means “extravagance” in Japanese language.

Through trading or auction of used objects, the program also aims to raise funds for unprivileged children, especially orphans or disabled ones.
As an annual program since 2013, the Mottainai 2018, the sixth of its kind so far, has been launched from March to October.
