Helmut Kutin said he is delighted at the effective cooperation between the Vietnamese government and his organisation in helping disadvantaged children across the country, affirming that SOS Village Int’l will continue to cooperate with and assist Vietnam in the future.

Helmut Kutin has been consecutively elected as President of SOS Children’s Village International from 1985 until now. This is his last visit to Vietnam before he retires this year./.
