The project has a total investment of VND5.2 billion ($210,800), of which VND5 billion was sponsored by Petrovietnam Fertilizer and Chemicals Corporation (PVFCCo).

The building was developed on an area of about 300 square meters with complete lighting, drainage and lightning protection systems. It is also equipped with equipment such as desks, chairs, anti-glare boards, televisions, and computers.

Speaking at the ceremony, a representative of PVFCCo said: "As a member of Petrovietnam, PVFCCo has made significant progress in its course of development, contributing positively and efficiently to the cause of the country’s agricultural development and food security."

With a diverse range of products, the company meets all needs of farmers, from familiar items like Phu My fertilizer products to others like NPK and potassium fertilizer under the brand Phu My Fertilizer - For a bumper harvest.

The products have proved their high quality and reliability, with reputable brands which are trusted by farmers all over the country.

In addition to business successes, with the motto “sharing”, PVFCCo has teamed up with provinces and cities nationwide every year to contribute to social security.

Up to now, tens of thousands of Great Solidarity houses, and hundreds of schools, hospitals and medical stations have been built. Tens of thousands of scholarships have been awarded to students, and tens of thousands of Tet (Lunar New Year holiday) gifts given to poor people.

The PVFCCo representative said the company hopes that the project will make positive contribution to the care and education systems for the country’s future generations, and helping teachers and students of Quang Tien Secondary School perform well.
