Besides traditional activities such as going to pagodas to pray for peace, giving New Year wishes or giving lucky money,… the custom of asking for letters at the beginning of the year is also an indispensable cultural beauty of Vietnamese people.
In Vietnamese beliefs, the beginning of the year is the time to start a new journey and change. Therefore, I asked for a letter from Mr. Do on the first day of Spring with the hope that there will be fortune, talent, and luck for new beginnings.
In addition, people also want to “ask” for Mr. Do’s qualities, virtues, and talents and use words to admonish themselves. It is also a testament to the tradition of studiousness and respect for letters of the Vietnamese people for many generations. Vietnamese people believe that beautiful, meaningful words will bring them luck, success and a smooth and favorable new year.
Those good values of Vietnamese culture have been recreated by Vietnam Public Commercial Joint Stock Bank (PVcomBank) in the Tet decoration space at the headquarters lobby (intersection 2 Ngo Quyen – Hai Ba Trung streets, Hoan Kiem district , Hanoi) on the occasion of Giap Thin spring 2024.
