It's been reported by the Esperanto Association of Ho chi Minh City (EAdH) that on January 4th a Training Committee was created with five member: Tran Quan Ngoc, Le Nhiem, Le Thien Thu, Dao Mai Anh, Le Thi Hai Minh.
Two courses have been started to help those who intend to participate in the upcoming International Youth Esperanto Conference in Hanoi, Vietnam, ahd the World Esperanto Congress in Yokohama, Japan:
- A conversational course using the document "Esperanto tiel parolata" from Japan. The course will be led by Dao Mai Anh and Zhu Xin. It is worth mentioning that Zhu Xin, a young Esperanto speaker from China, sometime editor of the Esperanto program at China Radio International, has come to southern Vietname to learn Vietnamese for six months. He immediately contacted EAdH and has been actively participating in the teaching of Esperanto. He has already registered for the International Youth Esperanto Conference.
- A course for beginners, using the Zagreb method, as in Hanoi. When the course ends, the association will arrange an exam. After the exam, the students will continue their studies in the conversational course.
Participants currently number 30, of various ages.
