Mr. Lang Van Duc, Principal of Huu Lien Secondary School in Huu Lien commune, Huu Lung district, Lang Son province, said that Huu Lien is a commune with many villages classified as particularly disadvantaged areas inhabited by ethnic minorities and mountainous regions, with 40% of households classified as poor or near-poor. Attending school for children here still faces many obstacles. Currently, many ethnic minority students are boarding at the school, receiving daily support from the school and teachers. The special affection and gratitude of the staff, lecturers, and students of the University of Social Sciences and Humanities, Vietnam National University, Hanoi, is a great source of encouragement for the students as well as the school in their studies and teaching.
