Mutual assistance and affection are not only a good moral tradition of our nation but also a humanitarian value. People with conscience always wish to live in solidarity, sharing life's joys and hardships. This is the intrinsic moral and social essence of humanity, forming national and global communities.

Vietnamese proverbs and folk poetry often speak of this spirit: "The healthy leaf covers the torn one," "When one horse is sick, the whole stable refuses grass," "Love others as you love yourself," "Silken fibers cover mirrors; People in one nation must love one another" and "Respond wisely to outsiders; Don't quarrel with those who share the same roots"... Perhaps more than any other nation in the world, Vietnam has always had to fight against external enemies and natural disasters, making the spirit of mutual assistance and affection a defining quality of the Vietnamese people, a hallmark of Vietnamese culture, and a necessary condition for the nation's survival and development.

This tradition manifests first in love, support, and empathy with one another during hardships. In wartime, families with members at the front lines received comfort, encouragement, and help from their communities during illness or shortages, supporting each other in production. The spirit of solidarity among civilians provided strength to soldiers to defeat the enemy. In peacetime, severe and recurring natural disasters have made many provinces suffer, such as the devastating floods in the Central provinces in 1999 and the severe flooding in the Mekong Delta over the past three months. People across the country, from children to the elderly, from farmers, workers to intellectuals and religious figures, collaborated selflessly to gather funds for flood victims. The Vietnamese overseas community and many international organizations also actively supported those affected by disasters. Indeed, "A morsel in hunger is worth a packet in comfort." In difficult times, our people always share with one another.

Besides compassion, the tradition of mutual assistance and affection is also expressed in the joy of witnessing others' legitimate happiness and considering others' success and happiness as our own. With this quality, the spirit becomes more complete and profound. When a family has a child getting married or achieving success, neighbors come to share in the joy.

Mutual assistance and affection is a national moral tradition, a beautiful trait of the Vietnamese people. The proverbs and folk poems:

"Silken threads cover mirrors

People in one nation must love one another"

not only highlight a humanitarian tradition of the nation but also serve as a reminder to everyone to uphold this spirit.
