Warnings: Abusing charity activities to protest against the government
Warnings: Abusing charity activities to protest against the government
13/11/16
Those days, everyone has been touched by scenes of catastrophes in the
Vietnam’s central provinces. The Formosa’s environmental pollution has not
stopped inflicting its’ damages yet, floods have come to push people’s lives
there more miserable. Yes, we all have taken pity on and want to help and share
the people’s losses in central provinces Ha Tinh, Quang Binh, Thua Thien Hue.
All are for one and only purpose of supporting victims, but it’s not always
simple like that. In charity works, many bad, extreme and reactionary elements
have taken advantages to carry out their dark schemes of opposing the Party and
State of Vietnam. Let see and recognize those individuals and their sophisticated
actions against the country’s interests.
First, it must be agreed that
charity activities and humanitarian works are good and should be encouraged for
all people to contribute. It’s proper and moral that we help disadvantaged
people if we have conditions for that. The Party and State have many policies
to encourage all individuals and organizations to carry out charity works
wherever needs helps.
However, any activities,
especially fundraising must register with the authorities for security and
safety. It’s easy to see with the development of social networks, charity
activities have become a common trend as a mode, a cool way to show yourself
and an occasion to travel and take stylist selfie photos. Humanitarian aids are
whatever they have not what the people they help need. After giving, they don’t
care their charitable goods are used or not.
Even, some elements also abused
charity fundraising to benefit themselves, they collected money but did not
publicize how they had used that fortune, no one knows how many in that money
would be used for charity. That’s why recently when MC Phan Anh, a famous person
in entertainment activities, has called and gathered a large amount of money as
billions of VND to help flood victims in the middle of Vietnam, many people
have raised questions about the transparency of this fund. It’s reasonable
because that’s a big fortune and only Phan Anh is in charge of managing and
distributing the charities.
Beside Phan Anh there are a lot of
individuals who call for supports and fundraising on the Internet in the name
of charity, and after fundraising they even hold the charity distributions
themselves. No one thinks of informing the authorities and registering to local
authorities for administrative managements. In all nations, governments are
established to manage and supervise all activities that happen in their
countries, including charity works, for national security and people’s all
sakes. And no country would allow for spontaneous activities, especially when
these activities threaten the country’s stability and interests.
The Vietnamese government, of
course, on the one hand creates favorable conditions for people to help and
share difficulties with each others, on the other must monitor these activities
to ensure they go the right ways.
Review on those disasters in the
middle of Vietnam, from Formosa to floods in the central provinces like Ha
Tinh, Quang Binh, etc, beside many true charitable donors, there are many
elements, at home and abroad, who aimed at abusing charity works to conduct
their wicked plots. They also gatherd aids to distribute for some victims, but
as giving aids they incited people’s sentiment against the State. They
distorted the government’s policies and blamed the State for disaters, even
they called out for rallies and protests which caused chaos and instabitity at
many places. You can see those inside individuals like Nguyễn Tường Thụy,
Nguyễn Lân Thắng, priests like Đặng Hữu Nam, Trần Đình Lai, Nguyễn Thái Hợp,
etc. They are all for a purpose of opposing the government, their acts did not
help victims there any good at all but also caused more economic loss and
turbulence for the authorities.
More
dangerous, some inside individuals are backed by foreign hostile forces and
reactionaries such as terror group Viet Tan, to conduct movements in attempts
of causing chaos and overthrowing the country’s regime. People should be warned
about those elements and keep all activities in accordance with the laws, even
it’s a good thing like charity./.

People should recognize their real purposes behind charity activities and keep away from them.
I agree that all activities, including charity, must be abide by the laws and put under the authorities' management.
Vietnamese people have a warm-hearted and always want to help others, and sometimes their kindness is exploited by bad elements, inside and outside the country.
what can be done with it. What I am saying is that what is revealed about Wounded Warrior Project spending practices in their financial statements is much more complicated than they have thus far been willing to admit.charity helps raise money
