Hoang Thi Minh Phuong, an author from the Department of Basic Sciences at Army Officer School 2 in Dong Nai, achieved a proud milestone by winning an award in the writing contest titled 'Warm and Loving Family Meals'. Her touching work entitled 'Eating with an Empty Chair' successfully captivated the judges among thousands of entries.

The two-month competition garnered extraordinary enthusiasm from the public, as evidenced by the submission of over 65,000 entries from across the country and the Vietnamese diaspora abroad. The panel of judges subsequently screened the entries and selected nine main winners, consisting of first, second, third place winners, and three consolation prize recipients, including Ms. Phuong.
