'When we were 17 or 18, we didn't think about youth'

In the final episode of the show Appointment with Youth , MC Lai Van Sam and guests had a meeting and shared with students of Phan Dinh Phung School.

Listening to the confidences about youth of Phan Dinh Phung school's young people, MC Lai Van Sam choked up as he recalled:

"Just now I was sitting down there listening to you guys up here giving speeches. When I was 18 years old, I was very emotional. I remember when I was in 10th grade, equivalent to 12th grade now, your joy was our dream. Because when we were 17, 18 years old, few people thought about youth, at that time there was still war.

Many of our friends, who were 17 or 18 years old, joined the army and died, never to return. I sat there, very happy. I knew for sure that you all had your youth. The future was waiting for you - young, lovely, talented people like this."

MC Lai Van Sam choked up while sharing in the program.

Diplomat Lai Ngoc Doan also shared about his deprived and miserable youth: "I just want to tell you that no matter what the circumstances, you need to strive for the future ahead. I was an orphan since childhood, I didn't know what to call "dad", my family was very poor. Thanks to my efforts and the help of my teachers, I became an ambassador extraordinary and plenipotentiary abroad."

Sharing with the students, People's Artist Hong Van said: "When we were 18 years old like you are now, our poor uncles and aunts were beyond description, no one had enough food or clothes. But now we have achieved a little success, bringing good products to society. Therefore, I want to tell you, we must try our best at all times, everywhere."

People's Artist Hong Van shared: "When we were 18 years old like you are now, our poverty was beyond description."

Artist Thanh Thuy emphasized: "It's not that we bring up difficulties to proudly talk about our hard times. But you are really very lucky to live in peacetime. We put all our trust, pride and ambition in your hands."

The sharing of the guests in the program made the audience and students very emotional. At the end of the 10-episode journey of the program, the guests truly found the excitement and enthusiasm of youth.

The sharing session with Phan Dinh Phung school students is a meaningful activity that helps the older generation of MC Lai Van Sam, People's Artist Hong Van... have the opportunity to confide and inspire young people to appreciate their youth and their current life more.
