The program’s atmosphere with many emotions
The first time is always special. This is the first time Alphanam people welcome the birthday with a series of sports activities – it is not only an opportunity to unite Alphanam people across the country, but also to share the same spirit of challenging our limits, reaching for the goal, like carp passing the dragon’s gate.
Although a downpour is an unexpected, heavy rain 03 hours before the event started, the organizers were present from the early morning to complete the final preparation, and all Alphanam members overcame the severe weather to be on time at Yen So park. Fortunately, right before G-hour, sunshine appeared to enter the clouds and the weather was getting extremely favorable to start outdoor activities.
The tree planting ceremony
At 6:30 a.m, the Board of Directors and managers were present to participate in the ceremony of tree planting at Yen So park. After the challenging times of epidemics, natural disasters, economic difficulties, etc., each individual appreciates health more and has a need for closeness with nature to rest and heal. Tree planting contributes to creating more cool and fresh space for the park, and conveys the message of the healthy and green living spirit in every step of Alphanam people as well.

The Alphanam birthday celebration
At 7:00 am, the 27th Anniversary of the Alphanam group began – marking a special milestone for each member of the Alphanam Great Family. The opening moment of the ceremony was very impressive and emotional with the song “Welcome the dawn” performed by Alphanam members. Nothing can be more inspiring than a song that fully encapsulates our spirit, will, and determination for a new journey.

Surprise and deposition are the following emotions when the video “Stronger Together – Powering from the heart” is shown on the led screen. We have seen sparkling tears, eyes red with emotion for the colleagues who have been by our side for a long journey… 27 million steps from the Alphanam Great Family were converted into 270 million Vietnam dong and given to the difficult families. It is even more meaningful when the members who directly contribute to the success of the “27 million steps” campaign have felt the small happiness when realizing the value they have built themselves.
Alphanam always thinks and acts based on the principles of development for society, for the community. At the ceremony, Chairman Nguyen Tuan Hai shared: “We are always proud of Alphanam people’s kindness, we live to live, we live well for ourselves, live well for our families and live well for society. Hopefully, Alphanam people will continue to spread that kindness in each generation to affirm that we always live valuable and meaningful lives for society.”

The program was also attended by Ms. Nguyen Thi Van – Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Dream Seed Center – a non-profit organization in the field of information technology and life skills training and education for the disabled. Her appearance, her sharing about the spirit of optimistic living to the fullest, living with dedication inspired all employees of Alphanam, and at the same time opened a special cooperation towards meaningful values for the community. In particular, Ms. Nguyen Thi Van also put on the red shirt “passing the dragon’s gate”. At that moment, there is no longer a boundary among Alphanam’s guests and people, it is a meeting between people who have a high ideal of life and are not afraid of challenges!

“Let us climb that towering peak
Where we can have our name etched on life
Though we know hardship is awaiting
And the heart is beating silently
We walk towards the stars…
…Step on a road covered with roses
And the thorns painfully prick our feet
Go through thousands of storms to reach the road of triumph
Keep the promise in our heart
Still carry on holding our head up high…
…And our heart prayed for us to be together, shoulder to shoulder
The triumph we share with each other
That day, that day is not far
And we are the winners
Although we anticipate myriad rapids on our journey
Overcome challenges, we will reach the highest peaks.”
From August 19, 2022, we will start “the journey to pass the Dragon’s gate”. The road to success is not easy, everyone has to trade it with energy, faith, spirit, steadfast will, determination to overcome all challenges in life. Success is a long journey. Fortunately, we are a family – we will not be alone as we conquer new challenges together to “have our name etched on life”. That is the spirit of “passing the gate to turn into a Dragon” of the Alphanam people. That day will not be far, and we are the winners!
