To celebrate the 1000-year anniversary of Thang Long - Hanoi, HSBC Vietnam has launched the “1,000 wishes for Hanoi” campaign to collect 1,000 well wishes to mark this major milestone in the city’s long history.
Till September 24, HSBC Vietnam will encourage Vietnamese people to express their most heart-felt best wishes for Thang Long - Hanoi on the occasion of its 1,000th anniversary and for the future.
For each of 1,000 wishes selected from the entries, HSBC will donate VND500,000 to the Tuoi Tre Scholarship Fund. At the end of the campaign, the VND500 million raised will finance 100 new university students studying in Hanoi. Each student will receive VND5 million towards their tuition fees and living expenses as they commence their academic career.
The campaign is open to people nationwide who wish to express their thoughts and feelings about Hanoi. To make a wish, participants are invited to visit HSBC’s computer-booths at seven different locations, at HSBC’s three offices (83B Ly Thuong Kiet, 23 Phan Chu Trinh and 6 Nha Tho), Trang Tien Plaza, Megastar Cinema, Melia Office Building, and the Foreign Trade University. They can also submit their wishes online at www.ngandieuuoc.com or via email to hsbc@ngandieuuoc.com.
A jury comprised of Duong Trung Quoc, a noted historian, Dinh Chuc, managing editor of Lao Dong newspaper, and Ton That Anh Vu, head of compliance and government relations of HSBC Vietnam, will select the top ten most eloquent wishes from the best 1,000 submissions.
Each of the ten winners will be awarded a Sony DSC HX1 camera and a special Thang Long trophy. In addition to the top ten prizes, there will be five prizes awarded to the best wishes as voted by the public each week. Each winner will be given a 2GB iPod Shuffle music player.
