Lovely memories formed during a voluntary campaign called “Green Summer Vietnam 2010” in her mother’s hometown inspired Kittiworawuthi (Kitti) Pornkanok, a Vietnamese-Thai girl, to teach Vietnamese to students in her country.
The Tuoi Tre (Youth) newspaper quoted Kitti as saying that she will try her best to learn Vietnamese thoroughly and then return to Thailand to teach Vietnamese there, with the hope that more and more people will know about the land and people of Vietnam , her mother’s home country.
Born in the countryside of Thailand , Kitti has visited her mother’s homeland only twice. The second time she returned to Vietnam to learn Vietnamese at the Ho Chi Minh City University of Social Sciences and Humanities just after graduating from a biology department at a Thai university.
She said that days of living and working with local people in the southern province of Tay Ninh during her first summer as a student in Vietnam provided her with an opportunity to study the lives of people in Vietnam ’s rural areas and then she came to a conclusion that despite poverty, everyone was full of love.
Kitti also actively participated in voluntary activities in Ben Tre province. “I learned many things about life from each activity I participated in,” she said.
The unforgettable memories from the Tay Ninh voluntary trip brought Kitti the first prize at the “Diary of Voluntary Summer 2010” contest, jointly organised by the Ho Chi Minh City Youth Union and the Youth newspaper./.
