A lot of students in Ho Chi Minh City have participated in the program.

M.H, a student at a university, said: “I've heard the news on the radio about garbage sorting, but not done it in reality. Knowing this program, I asked my friends to collect all kinds of paper, plastic, metal waste. This activity is very useful and meaningful because it both protects the environment, limits harmful waste, and brings us lovely gifts."

Many families and children have been excited to participate in garbage sorting and recycling.

Ms. Dung - a resident in Tan Phu District, Ho Chi Minh City said: "Previously, I didn't know, I just collected all kinds of garbage together. Now I hear about environmental protection, garbage sorting, I begin to pay more attention. Every time I collect the garbage, I sort them out, so it does not make me feel inconvenient at all, just pay attention and I have many gifts to bring home at weekends. Last week I exchanged for a very good water bottle and a plastic container, this week I want to exchange for a plastic chair.”
