Vietnam overcame the severe lockdown and social distance policy to go into the living of “with corona”. The restrictions in terms of transportation or business operation gradually came back to normal.
This survey was made with an intention to understand Vietnamese behaviors and opinions toward Tet, the first annual ceremony after the severe social distancing.
This survey was conducted among male and female of 18 - 49 years old of 650 respondents in November 2021.

“2021 was not a good year due to the outbreak of the disease,
and after that time, I realized that family values are a very
precious gift that has money or anything on it. As long as we
return home, where our family is always waiting, we will always
feel peace in our hearts” - Male, 28
“Family values are the most important in life, because when the
family is healthy and happy, we can focus on doing good work
and promoting our forte. Family is the cell of society, each
complete family contributes to a better society” - Female, 39
“I see that the covid 19 epidemic has brought me an
unforgettable moment. On the other hand, it is an opportunity
for me to encourage with my family and friends together. I'm so
happy, so I find "family values" so profoundly” - Male, 18
“Only the family is always concerned about their health without
worrying about money. Safety and health are very important
things for my family that cannot be exchanged for money” -
Female, 23
