During a recent workshop in Vietnam, Dr. Jorge Nieva, a leading expert in cancer from the University of Southern California, said that most research on different types of cancer indicates doing exercise has a positive impact on patients. According to the expert, experiments show that the more inactive a patient gets, the bigger chances their disease will become complicated. Patients who spend less than five hours every 60 days walking or moving tend to need more urgent medical assistance, while physically active patients have the least problems, he underlined. Nieva advised consulting doctors for the most suitable form of exercise. “It’s mostly walking though,” he noted. Instructor Sean Stocker works with his cancer students in this supplied photo.

Small vendors in Vietnam are notorious for their use of single use plastics.  After all, with low profit margins and tough competition, making ends meet tends to be prioritized over environmental protection. But through a mix of perseverance and education, Huong, 22, hopes to push Vietnam’s small business environment towards the switch to eco-friendly options, starting with her local market in Binh Tanh District. “Can you please stop packaging your stuff in plastic bags?” Huong begins each conversation with the market’s vendors.

Many of such walls are in Da Kao Ward, District 1, which are filled with beautiful paintings and flower pots. The products were jointly created by the People’s Committee, the Vietnam Fatherland Front Committee, and the Youth Union of Da Kao Ward as well as local residents to prevent graffiti, ads stuck on walls, and littering. With the same purpose, walls of houses on Dien Bien Phu Street in Da Kao Ward have also been blanketed with pictures about protecting wildlife and fighting the hunt for endangered species.
