Tết in Saigon, where the Church helps poor students
More than 10,000 students travelled north for the Lunar New Year holidays. However, many others could not afford the trip. Some stay at Emmanuel, a student residence set up by the Archdiocese four years ago for the most disadvantaged. Here free meals are available as are scholarships. "Since I came here, I have been able to share happiness and sadness with others,” said a Buddhist student.
