<p style="text-align: justify;">The year of the Mouse/Rat is coming to an end and 2020 certainly will be one not easily forgotten.

For some the exit from Vietnam earlier in the year became the struggle to return later in the year as the pandemic realities hit families around the world. For the Vietnamese population the departure early in the year by hundreds of English teachers and professional experts who supported business and industry soon became an issue of getting teachers and experts to return to the country.</span><br />
