CHINA, On the eve of the Mid-Autumn Festival, which falls on September 17 this year, the Information Office and the Foreign Affairs Office of the People's Government of Yunnan Province held the Reception Celebrating the 75th Anniversary of the Founding of the People's Republic of China and the 'Blooming Flowers and Full Moon' China-Vietnam Mid-Autumn Festival Gala in Ho Chi Minh City and the Chinese Consulate-General in Ho Chi Minh City. A couple of days ago, Super Typhoon Yagi wreaked havoc in northern Vietnam, causing significant property damage and heavy casualties. The typhoon also unleashed destruction across multiple provinces in southern China. Before the artistic performances started, a dozen Chinese-funded business associations in Vietnam including the China Business Association Ho Chi Minh City Branch donated VND3.8 billion (equivalent to RMB1.1 million) to the Vietnam Fatherland Front in Ho Chi Minh City.
