On March 24, Vietnam’s biggest stars called on parents to insist their children wear helmets. Miss. Vietnam Mai Phuong Thuy, singers Thanh Bui and Phuong Vy, actor Phan Anh, MC Nguyen Khang, and 365 band joined AIP Foundation, as well as the Ho Chi Minh City Traffic Safety Committee, Traffic Police, and Department of Education and Training at Dam Sen Park for a family-friendly event entitled, “Kids love helmets,” in District 11, Ho Chi Minh City.

The event supports the national campaign “Children also need a helmet” to increase motorcycle helmet wearing among Vietnamese children, by engaging 12,000 parents, children, and road safety stakeholders in traffic safety games and activities.

Children and parents learned about the importance of helmets, how to wear helmets correctly, and other traffic safety topics through interactive games and by hearing directly from celebrities. The Soul Dance Academy led a flash mob dance, choreographed with helmets. Local authorities awarded organizations and individuals, who have contributed to protect children’s safety on the road.
