Photo taken from clip

On September 12, VietNamNet reporters contacted Mr. Bui Van Thu, Head of the Department of Education and Training of Meo Vac district. Mr. Thu said that all the above information was not true.

Accordingly, the image of the baby was recorded a year ago, 2023. At that time, the child in the clip was only 5 years old. He is currently a first grade student at Ma Pi Leng school, part of Pai Lung Primary and Secondary Boarding School for Ethnic Minorities, Meo Vac district.

According to Mr. Thu, after reading the information spread on social networks, the department discussed with the Board of Directors of Pai Lung Primary and Secondary Boarding School for Ethnic Minorities. Thereby, it was determined that the child's name is Giang Mi L., whose mother is Giang Thi S. and father is Giang Mi C. (residing in Ma Pi Leng village).

Currently, the baby's family is still complete, both parents. At the time the clip was filmed, the baby was crying because he wanted to follow his mother to the field and it is possible that the person filming this moment did not understand the local language so could not hear what the baby said.
