A special point worth mentioning here is that most of the core technologies researched, developed and owned by Phenikaa Group are implemented by Vietnamese human resources who work for the Group, including the team. a team of talented and passionate young scientists and technicians who are “recruited” from Start-up, Spin-off companies. This represents the clear strategic direction that the Group is implementing – which is to conquer the pinnacle of science and technology in parallel with the reality of the aspiration to develop the young generation and raise the level of Vietnamese intelligence. BusMap application for public transport with 2 million users in Vietnam One of the technology start-ups invested by Phenikaa Group with the goal of giving wings to the young generation and realizing the Group’s strategic steps is a strategic investment of $1.5 million in the company. Vietnamese technology start-up owns the leading free public transport application in Vietnam – BusMap. This investment decision is both a desire to contribute to the development of a talented young Vietnamese generation, while creating a resonance of strength to perfect the Phenikaa ecosystem, contributing to accelerating the construction and development of a smart city. sustainability in Vietnam and the national digital transformation process, implementing the Government’s goals, orientations and policies. With the investment and patronage of Phenikaa in terms of people, systems and technology, BusMap Joint Stock Company officially became a member unit of Phenikaa Group and was renamed Phenikaa MaaS Technology Joint Stock Company (called Phenikaa MaaS Technology Joint Stock Company (called Phenikaa MaaS Technology JSC). for short, Phenikaa MaaS); step by step restructure, expand mission, vision and business development orientation, towards becoming a leading enterprise providing solutions, products and services to strongly promote digital transformation. comprehensive in the field of smart traffic, smart city in Vietnam. No longer an ordinary investment project, the fact that Phenikaa Group “pours money” into the young Vietnamese technology start-up BusMap is how the Group is “realizing its commitment” to developing the young Vietnamese generation and promoting the transformation of young Vietnamese people. digital transformation for smart traffic, smart city, contributing to the general development of society. A young Vietnamese technology start-up, when fully sponsored and officially a member of a large corporation, will be able to quickly transform and develop, bringing BusMap core technology into smart mobility applications and Comprehensive technology solutions. Since then, opening up great opportunities for thousands of businesses operating in the transportation sector as well as local governments to quickly access comprehensive digital transformation in the field of smart traffic and smart cities in Vietnam. . At the same time, this investment of Phenikaa Group continues to inspire the young Vietnamese generation to confidently and boldly explore and conquer knowledge, because surely, when young talents demonstrate their ability, bravery and passion, they will find “strong sponsors” who are willing to sponsor and develop, unleash their creativity to create high-class products, affirm Vietnamese talent and wisdom, open doors great door to the world.

During the anti-American war to save the country, many soldiers had to eat rotten vegetables to fight hunger. Dimpled vegetables grow a lot in coastal areas, along rivers and canals. Previously, people freely picked dented vegetables in the sea and sold them. However, for about a decade now, when dented vegetables have been favored by the market, the owners’ beaches have been protected, people are not free to come and pick this wild vegetable anymore. In order to actively source dented vegetables to sell to the market, and before the natural amount of dented vegetables is increasingly depleted, many farmers have organized to plant dented vegetables. Taking advantage of canals and ditches in the garden, farmers pluck wild rotten vegetables from the sea to plant. Currently, in Ho Chi Minh City, vegetables are grown mainly in Bon Phu hamlet, Trung An commune, Cu Chi district. Mr. Nguyen Van Thanh (Bon Phu hamlet), leader of the commune’s vegetable cooperative, shared in Nhan Dan newspaper: “Over the past six years, I have expanded the ditch to bring water from the Saigon River into the family’s fruit garden, then pick rotten vegetables that grow wild and transplant them in the same way as rice transplant.This guy (meaning vegetables) must be planted under another tree to create shade, tolerate fresh water from the river, and adapt to Trung An’s soil, so more seedlings will grow quickly So, my family’s average income from dented vegetables is 250 million VND/year. Seeing that I’m doing well, relatives follow suit, so I’m the “boss”!”. And no longer self-harvesting as in the past due to the growing area, Mr. Thanh asked more farmers in the hamlet to collect daily. Since then, that creates more regular jobs for eight workers per year. To grow dented vegetables, people dig wide ditches to direct water from the canals. Planting method is like sowing seeds, just plug the seedlings down and let them grow on their own, without much care. After one year of planting, it can be harvested. When harvesting, only young shoots are taken. Each stalk is 30-40cm long. Because the dented leaves grow quickly, they have to be picked every day to avoid getting old. The old leaves of the vegetable have many sharp thorns in the middle of the stem, so the picker must always wear long-sleeved clothes, gloves to avoid scratching the skin. When picking vegetables, go along each row so as not to miss young shoots. This job does not require a lot of skills, but it takes endurance and quick hands to wade through the water continuously for a few hours to pick vegetables. For each pound of vegetables, the gardener is paid 6,000 VND. Currently, in Trung An commune, there are still a few dozen people picking wild vegetables. Currently, the price of fresh rotten vegetables is always around 25,000 VND/kg, silage reaches 40,000 VND/kg. Farmers with a water surface of about one thousand m², growing dented vegetables can harvest 150 kg / week, so if they sell fresh vegetables, they also earn 15 million VND / month and this “sales” is even. all year round. As for a person who owns 2.5 hectares of dented vegetables like Mr. Vo Van Horn, every day he picks more than 50 kg of dented vegetables every day, with the current selling price, except for picking he earns nearly 2 million . The young shoots of dented vegetables can be used to process many dishes such as eating raw, squeezing salad, boiling, stir-frying, cooking sour soup, dipping hot pot… (According to GiadinhNet)

Quiet, gentle and discreet, Quy Hoa maple village (Ghenh Rang ward, Quy Nhon city, Binh Dinh province) is like a small hidden corner in Quy Nhon beach town. The beautiful beauty of the natural scenery blends in the 60-hectare area, once there was a maple village. Tucked away in a valley surrounded by mountains and sea, Quy Hoa maple village was once like a quiet stop in the middle of a lute written with captivating and enchanting tunes of nature. This is also the place where poet Han Mac Tu once lived and spent his whole painful life in this place. For a long time, everyone remembers the sad and despairing verses of the Han poet: “Whose boat docks at that moon river / Can bring the moon back in time tonight?”, or “Who buys the moon, I sell the moon?” for?”. The evil disease came to the poet with the surname Han in the midst of the undeveloped medicine, plus the alienation of the world made him have to find a faraway place to lull his soul. Mr. Chin hopes that, in addition to helping the leper villagers develop their economy, this moon boat can be put into tourism service. Quy Hoa, a place that has long been implicit in people’s minds is a refuge for people with leprosy. Many people come and go, the remaining patients are a struggle when they have passed most of their human lives, sitting on the porch in the afternoon waiting for the day to pass. But, Quy Hoa now suddenly makes people feel surprised at the transformation of a land that was haunted by pain and miserable fates. In a hidden corner near the coast of Quy Hoa, fisherman Le Van Chin (52 years old) sat contemplatively in front of a row of coconut trees fluttering in the sea breeze. He was probably one of the few special people in this place. Around where he sat, small blue boats were spread out on the sand. He smiled happily, pointed to each boat and said: This boat is yours, that boat is yours, that one… all of them are made by you. And he was also a leper patient at one time. In 1981, when he was still a young teenager in the coastal area of ​​Phan Thiet (Binh Thuan province), he discovered that his limbs lost sensation, then hard lumps gradually appeared on his body. The family took Mr. Chin to Quy Hoa for treatment. At that time, there was a huge guilt in him. But then, at that time, medicine was also more developed, his disease was completely cured. He had a time to return to his hometown of Phan Thiet and go to the sea, but his love with his daughter Ghenh Rang held him back to this land. He is here, working as a seafarer and living in harmony with other sick people. The sea job is very hard, especially for those who have been sick and in poor health in the leper village. Towing heavy basket boats to the sea or to shore every day is a problem. Once, when he saw too many plastic drums being discharged in industrial zones, he came up with the idea of ​​​​making boats from plastic containers. He bought 10 boxes and did his own research. Having made a boat in the past, he quickly built himself a boat from these plastic drums. Lighter boats made of bamboo slats sweep oil, surf faster, maintenance work is also less, more convenient when pulling into the water or bringing ashore, suitable for the health of patients in Quy Nhon. Hoa. Many people see the advantages of this type of boat so they are very interested, they put him to do it. He made 3 types of boats, including pointed boat, cradle boat, and high-pronged cradle boat. Each type is 4m long and 1.2m wide. Each of these boats uses 7 drums of 200 liters type and some auxiliary materials such as freight, screws, bamboo… Currently, the cost to complete each boat is more than 4 million VND, he sells it for a price. 5 or 6 million dong. Mr. Chin with his moon boats. Many fishermen in Quy Hoa consider this boat to have many advantages. Because it’s plastic, it’s easier to float on the water, and the machine can be installed so that it doesn’t take much effort to row. Moreover, the boat has a longer service life when the bamboo boat is only used for 3-4 years to degrade, and the price is more expensive. Therefore, in the past few years, Mr. Chin has made about 60 of them by himself. In addition to relatives in the maple village, there are also some fishermen in Khanh Hoa and Phu Yen who also come to work. He named it “the moon boat Han Mac Tu”, in memory of the talented but unlucky poet who used to live in this maple village. He said to make and sell these boats because their shape is half moon, like the moon. But this place is associated with many memories of the talented poet of the past. From the day there was a television report on a boat with a strange name “Han Mac Tu moon boat”, many tourists coming to Quy Hoa wanted to meet Mr. Chin and take souvenir photos with him with the “moon boat”. Indeed, if you visualize it well, you can see that the boat has the shape of a new moon. The “Han Mac Tu moon boats”, which are popular with Quy Hoa fishermen, also make tourists inside and outside the province when coming to Quy Hoa excited to learn, adding the element of taking advantage of the waste drums, reducing environmental damage. school. Moon boat’s ambition In the memory of the patients once here, the leper village that day also had several hundred leprosy patients. Life was difficult and lacked enough, they did not return to their homeland but decided to settle here, considering Quy Hoa as their second homeland. Missing home, missing their loved ones, they bury them in their hearts to face the sick life they are suffering from. Mr. Chin’s moon boat is made from a 200-liter drum and some auxiliary materials such as freight, screws, bamboo… Painful little people have long had to deal with the gnawing of disease. But, in them, there is still an enduring vitality, strangely resilient. Meeting them, it seemed that no wound had ever been imprinted on the already emaciated bodies because of the evil leprosy. Meet them in the leprosy village of Quy Hoa, where the disease was famous nearly a century ago. But, there are love affairs that each of us feels warm to know. Like Mr. Chin’s love affair with his current wife, like a fairy tale in this feng shui village, where the moon boat seemed to have brought them together, to a happy shore for the past few decades. Few people know that Ms. Vo Thi Thuy (a resident of Ghenh Rang ward) is not like the leper villagers. She did not get sick, but because she loved this kind, hard-working man, she decided to live in the same house with him. At that time, in 1988, the psychology was still very heavy for the sick people in Quy Hoa and that mentality also had a great influence on ordinary people like Ms. Thuy. Like many others, Ms. Thuy’s feelings for Mr. Chin at first were just concern and sharing between people. But then, when love comes, I don’t know. And they had a wedding, then entered the leper village. Called “wedding”, but in the late 80s of the last century, people lived in poverty, disease, simple weddings with only a few cakes, candy, and invited friends and patients to congratulate, in front of the event. witnessed by the hospital board. It was all a great effort. Love is the magic medicine that helps them overcome illness and live better. Living together in love, the patients no longer feel guilty. The power of love has become a spiritual medicine along with the advancement of medicine that has helped many people overcome illness. But, in order to overcome the guilt and obstacles of her family and relatives, Ms. Thuy was determined to come to Mr. Chin, even though the difficulties were endless. A corner of Quy Hoa maple village today. And now, her choice has paid off somewhat. Every day, Mr. Chin, besides going to the sea, builds moon boats for people in the village. Good news spread far away, his boat was popular in many places, he built boats for fishermen in many coastal villages in other localities. During the stormy seasons, when he could not go to the sea, he stayed at home to build boats. Husband and wife and children live peacefully and happily with other families. His children are all grown up, in which the youngest daughter is in high school. That seems to be a worthy reward for his life after hard days. Mr. Chin’s house is not difficult to find, from the hospital gate, go to the right about 50m, you will see a boat placed by the roadside, follow that road about 50m more, on the right hand side, you will see a whitewashed house in front of you. beautiful white is a man who is hard at work. With the “moon boats”, the economy of Mr. Chin’s family and many other households has thus improved significantly. But, he has another wish, which is to put these boats into tourism. “If boats made of drums can carry tourists to Quy Nhon beach, the children of leprosy patients will have jobs. Thus, economic conditions are improved, life will be less difficult, “- Mr. Chin confided. Currently, in Binh Dinh in general, Quy Nhon in particular is on the way to developing tourism, including Quy Hoa maple village. Therefore, Mr. Chin hopes that his moon boats will not only help Phong village people more convenient in catching coastal seafood, but also can participate in tourism services.

Voto car cockpit simulation model In which, invention The supporting mechanism for the robot is parallel to the spring system with constant power received exclusive patents from the US Patent and Trademark Office. From manufacturing simulated cars to airplanes … Working at the Simulation Modeling Center, Viettel High-Tech Industry Corporation (VHT) under Viettel Group, is Viettel’s main research and production unit in the military and civil fields, Cu Xuan Hung day and night diligently learning, exploring and utilizing human knowledge to master core technology, creating many simulation products in the military field such as the tank control training simulation system, airplanes, personal shooting, car driving simulations … make an important contribution to the modernization of the army, exporting products to the world. One of the typical products of the VHT research group is to successfully manufacture a Su-30 aircraft simulation for military operations. Right from the beginning of the work, the team stumbled on … a rock when asking the question of buying parameters with the manufacturer, the answer that the VHT engineers received was shaking their heads. They had to mobilize all input data sources from reality in related documents and learn knowledge through many different channels such as the Internet, books, magazines at home and abroad, even going abroad to study. . To simulate an airplane, it takes parameters to perform mathematical equations to represent the state of the plane as well as the situation the plane needs to process. Meanwhile, the parameters of the Su-30 aircraft are unknown. In the end, Hung and VHT’s team found more than 100 types of parameter sets and the testing process alone took several years for the VHT engineers. In the world, only Russia is the only country that owns the Su-30 aircraft simulation technology, the quality of products of the Su-30 aircraft simulation model of the VHT research team is assessed by partners. The height is remarkable. Another product successfully researched and manufactured by Hung and VHT is a driving training simulation system called Voto. The system uses modern simulation equipment and technology, bringing the most authentic experience and feeling to the practitioner, is expected to be a safe and effective solution in driver training. Voto is expected to be Vietnam’s first standard and compliant product for a driving simulator cabin for car driving training. Hung and VHT have applied “the invention of the supporting structure for parallel robot with spring system with constant power” in the research and manufacture of Voto. Thanks to this invention, the model of the car cockpit is truly simulated with the drive control cluster (steering wheel, gear lever, clutch, accelerator, brake …) and the clock system showing speed and rotation. equivalent to real vehicle equipment. It is known that the simulation model of Hung and the VHT team is preparing to be mass produced to bring to the market. … to a patent in the US and the aspiration to reach out For every scientist, having a research topic being patented, especially an invention protected by the United States is considered a special achievement, because the US is a country with such leading technology.

Currently, the unit is actively applying the value of invention effectively, contributing to building a growing and growing enterprise, raising the position of Vietnamese knowledge to the world ”.

By Daniel Hechler, ARD studio Cairo Hind Mouawad is most affected when people come to her who have never asked for money from others in their life. A single father from Beirut, for example, who no longer has a job and does not know how to feed his three children. Often times they can’t go to school because they have to take odd jobs. Still, they don’t have enough money to pay the rent for their run-down apartment on the outskirts of the city. You are threatened with homelessness. With her small organization “Volunteers together”, Mouawad likes to help, whenever she can, and she listens to people’s stories. “What you do is actually the responsibility of the state,” her father tells her after an odyssey through government agencies without any success. He doesn’t want to give his name. She knows how difficult it is for many to accept her help at all. “So many people have lost their pride and are broken,” says the 49-year-old Lebanese woman.

Hind Mouawad’s initiative helps those in need wherever it can.

Meals in Ramadan unaffordable

She now provides more than 600 families with “Volunteers Together” every month. Every day there are more. Your team distributes food, medicines, blankets and clothing. The resources are limited, the willingness to donate is declining, and your mission is becoming more and more difficult. “This work gives me a lot of confidence,” says Mouawad. “Even on days when I couldn’t achieve much, at least I can tell myself I tried.” 25 volunteers now help free of charge, most of them are students. Her four children are also involved. In Ramadan they have even more to do than usual. Especially at this time of contemplation and solidarity, Mouawad wants to help alleviate the worst hardship, give families their dignity, and give hope for a new beginning. The common meal after a day of fasting costs on average about three times as much today as it was in 2018. For many, unaffordable.

Half of the population below the poverty line

According to the World Bank, food is not as expensive in any other Middle Eastern country as it is in Lebanon. The prices for some drugs have quadrupled since 2018. This is also due to the fact that most of the goods are imported, but the national currency has collapsed. More than half of the population now lives below the poverty line. “There is no future for young people in this country,” says Ali, a bus driver with two daughters. “There is no future for anyone at all. Anyone who can leave the country leaves it.”

“We are all beggars,” it says on the wall of a building in Beirut – in front of it a woman with a child is sitting on the street, begging. Image: dpa The country’s worst economic crisis is homemade: the result of corruption and mismanagement by greedy elites. These have enriched themselves over decades, accumulating mountains of debt. Now the state is bankrupt and the banks are shaky. The established parties have not been able to agree on a new government for months. Power proportionality of the ruling cliques still takes precedence over the common good. The electrical engineer Samir Haddad fears for his fatherland: “I ask God to protect us, to influence our rulers, that they act conscientiously, protect our children. I pray every morning.” The central bank should run out of currencies by the end of May. Then the state can no longer pay subsidies on basic foods and medicines. There is a threat of famine. “They humiliated the people, let them fall,” says Hind Mouawad. “We’re so mad at her.”

“We are there for everyone”

Mouawad himself comes from a wealthy family, is privileged and is fully aware of this. She belongs to the ten percent of the population who own 70 percent of the wealth. In 2003 she founded her organization to help people in acute need. It wants to make at least a small contribution to reducing the enormous social gap. Over the years she has built up a network of donors at home and abroad who trust her. She and her helpers buy the goods where they are cheapest, pack food parcels from them in a warehouse, distribute them on site or bring them to families on the outskirts of Beirut. New challenges await every day: “Sometimes sick people have to be brought to the clinic, students need money for their education, parents need money for their children’s school,” she explains. Religious affiliation is irrelevant for the Christian: “We are there for everyone!” She knows all too well that her work will not solve the Lebanon crisis. But at least she doesn’t just want to watch the decline of her country, but at least make a small contribution to alleviating the misery – to hold the country together in the vague hope that Lebanon will eventually improve again.
