SABECO rallies sport lovers to support talented athletes

Major areas of activities in 2022 include culture, arts, tourism, cuisine, and sports

The SEA Games 31 are a golden opportunity for Vietnam to share its amazing culture, identity, and people, as well as to promote the country internationally. The cooperation will widen both brands' recognition beyond Asia. At SEA Games 31, Bia Saigon is the Diamond Sponsor and the sole sponsor of the doping control programme.

The launch of the "Vietnam Wins Gold" initiative aims to support the national sports teams and athletes during SEA Games 31, raising the love for sports and the positive spirit of the whole nation.

The initiative is part of a series of activities that Bia Saigon is conducting with the MoCST. The initiative will collect and echo sports chantings from supporters online and offline wherever they are. With the goal of collecting millions of chantings in support of Vietnam’s sports, by the completion of the month-long movement, Bia Saigon will contribute more than $215,000 to support the training and development of young athletes to reach international achievements and bring about the best of Vietnam's sports.

Bennett Neo, general director of SABECO said, “There is nothing quite like sports when it comes to bringing people together. Success at international sports competitions rallies and binds the nation together and evokes national pride. As 2022 marks the second time Vietnam is hosting the SEA Games, Bia Saigon sees its role in contributing to the winning spirit of national sports teams, as well as supporting the development of outstanding young athletes.”

He remarked that the "Vietnam Wins Gold" initiative and the long-term partnership with the MoCST embrace the identity of Vietnam in culture, tourism, and sports. "This is an essential part of our sustainable development commitment in Vietnam," Neo said.
