The “Toa Sang Nghi Luc Viet” programme was launched in November last year by the Vietnam Youth Federation, the sheet metal producer, Hoa Sen Group, and two local media outlets to inspire people who must overcome tremendous difficulties to achieve their goals.
On May 20, he met with the Vietnamese communications circle. After these activities, Vujicic will continue with engagements in Hanoi until May 25.

Famed Vietnamese photographer, Nguyen A, released a photo book titled “Nick and His Days in Vietnam” in honor of the inspirational speaker following this trip.
The 200-page full-colour book features around one hundred photos which depict moments of Vujicic's five-day trip.
