Lieutenant Colonel Do Thi Hang Nga, Deputy Director of Level 2 Field Hospital No. 4, said, “Through these small and simple acts, we would like to extend our sympathy to South Sudanese women and help them celebrate the day just like any other ordinary women. Hopefully, events like this will raise awareness among local people about the role and position of women in society.”

In addition to giving gifts to local women in Bentiu, the hospital hosted other events such as haircuts, makeup, and beauty treatments for local women. Also on this occasion, there were different recreational activities to create opportunities for female soldiers of the hospital and local women to get to know one another.

Senior Lieutenant Colonel Nguyen Kim Tinh, Commander of the Vietnamese Peacekeeping Forces in South Sudan, and soldiers on the hospital’s Board of Directors presented gifts to local women in person.

While female soldiers showcased their talents by helping local women put on their make-up and beautify themselves, male soldiers styled their hair.
