APM 2023 is hosted by the Management Board of Dong Hai District Development Assistance Program and Bac Lieu Union of Friendship Organizations (BUFO), sponsored by ActionAid – AFV and Bac Lieu People’s Committee. The event provided a forum to exchange between central and local partners and ActionAid – AFV.

In his remarks, Le Hoang Minh, BUFO’s president said: “Bac Lieu, located in the coastal Mekong Delta, is one of Vietnam’s most important provinces in producing wind power, solar power, shrimp, salt and processing seafood. In recent years, natural disasters and salinity intrusion have been causing serious impacts on the livelihoods of many households. Appreciating projects sponsored by ActionAid-AFV in Bac Lieu for more than 10 years, we hope through this forum, we can introduce Bac Lieu’s potential in cooperation with NGOs to implement short- and medium-term projects in renewable energy and sustainable agriculture in the Mekong Delta.”

The Philippines took an early lead in Tuesday’s game thanks to a penalty awarded in the 11th minute after Vietnamese goalkeeper Tran Thi Kim Thanh fouled a Philippine striker in the box. Vietnam struggled to create scoring opportunities before finding an equalizer in the 41st minute, when goalkeeper Olivia McDaniel failed to catch a cross from defender Nguyen Thi My Anh and let Nguyen Thi Bich Thuy net on the rebound.
