The event has been arranged after discussions between the company and the writer over the last two years. Phuoc said: “Vietnam is in an economic slowdown and people are facing many difficulties. Therefore, the appearance of Nick may be some help to many people.

We invite Nick to come to not only share the pain of having a disability but also to help some people to believe in themselves.” Vujicic will lecture from May 22 to 26. In particular, he will talk with Hanoi National University and HCMC National University about ‘Living inspiration to study and practice.’ He will also spend some time with street kids from open houses at Quan Ngua Stadium in Hanoi about ‘Inspiration to overcome difficulties and challenges.’

He will also have a short talk with young employees at Vietnamworks and will visit poor kids in children’s supporting centers in Binh Duong and young people from Agent Orange Hoa Binh Peace Village. Accompanied with Nick are some disabled people who have mirrored his success in their own way such as translator Bich Lan, teacher Nguyen Ngoc Ky and Ms Huong Duong.

The company also took this occasion to launch the Vietnamese version of the second autobiography of Vujicic, Dung tu bo khat vong (English name: Unstoppable), to Vietnamese readers nationwide from Tuesday. He was inspired to write the book after a lecturing tour around the world and due to his wife Kanae Miyahara who has given him unconditional love and the couple also have a son.

First News previously published the autobiography Life Without Limits by Vujicic in Vietnamese at its bookstores nationwide. Noting that ‘perfection isn’t always perfect’ and that ‘brokenness can be a good thing’, he talks about how he learned to accept what he could not control and focused instead on what he could. The book has been translated into many languages and it has become a best seller in Vietnam.
