HA NOI (Biz Hub)— General Motor (GM) Vietnam on June 22 donated two Chevrolet vehicles and 10 sets of engines and transmissions to local universities and vocational training schools in Ha Noi.

The donation, which was witnessed by US Ambassador to Viet Nam Ted Osius and representatives from various ministries, is part of the company's established support for the education and training of Vietnamese students majoring in automobile technology.

The company expected that with this donation, students would have the chance to better understand the technology and thus play a crucial role in shaping the national automotive industry in the future.

Speaking at the ceremony, Ambassador Osius said, "Business and education partnerships are incredibly important for developing the next generation of talent, spurring economic development and making the world we live in a better place.

"These cars and new engines and transmissions are an opportunity for you to explore your passion for engineering, understand the best technology available today and unleash your creativity. You will be innovators of tomorrow," Osius told the students.

GM Vietnam, for many years, has joined social and charitable initiatives, such as donating helmets and disseminating road safety instructions to students, cleaning Do Son Beach, providing scholarships and supporting underprivileged households. — VNS
