Held on March 19, 2026 at 7:00 PM via Zoom, the session “𝑫𝒊𝒈𝒊𝒕𝒂𝒍 𝑯𝒂𝒏𝒅𝒔𝒉𝒂𝒌𝒆: 𝑯𝒐𝒘 𝒕𝒐 𝑩𝒖𝒊𝒍𝒅 𝑻𝒓𝒖𝒔𝒕 𝒊𝒏 𝑽𝒊𝒓𝒕𝒖𝒂𝒍 𝑻𝒆𝒂𝒎𝒔” brought together participants from Tra Vinh University (TVU), Vietnam, and partner universities in the Philippines, including Palompon Institute of Technology (PIT), Southern Leyte State University (SLSU), University of Southeastern Philippines (USeP), and Samar State University (SSU). The session was led by Mark B. Galdo, a professor from SLSU, who shared insights on how cultural values shape online communication and how trust can be built in virtual teams through understanding and collaboration.

During the break room sessions, students and faculty shared and reflected on the similarities and differences between Vietnamese and Filipino ways of communicating and greeting, making the discussion more engaging and meaningful. The session highlighted how, while each country has its own cultural practices, both value respect, connection, and meaningful communication. It ended with a powerful reminder: “𝑨𝒄𝒓𝒐𝒔𝒔 𝒄𝒖𝒍𝒕𝒖𝒓𝒆𝒔 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒅𝒊𝒔𝒕𝒂𝒏𝒄𝒆𝒔, 𝒘𝒆 𝒅𝒐 𝒏𝒐𝒕 𝒋𝒖𝒔𝒕 𝒆𝒙𝒄𝒉𝒂𝒏𝒈𝒆 𝒘𝒐𝒓𝒅𝒔 — 𝒘𝒆 𝒃𝒖𝒊𝒍𝒅 𝒖𝒏𝒅𝒆𝒓𝒔𝒕𝒂𝒏𝒅𝒊𝒏𝒈. 𝑻𝒉𝒂𝒕 𝒊𝒔 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒕𝒓𝒖𝒆 𝒑𝒐𝒘𝒆𝒓 𝒐𝒇 𝒅𝒊𝒈𝒊𝒕𝒂𝒍 𝒉𝒂𝒏𝒅𝒔𝒉𝒂𝒌𝒆.”

This event was joined by the Industrial Engineering faculty 𝐄𝐧𝐠𝐫. 𝐃𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐥𝐲𝐧 𝐌𝐚𝐬𝐤𝐚𝐫𝐢ñ𝐨, 𝐄𝐧𝐠𝐫. 𝐏𝐞𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐉𝐨𝐲 𝐕𝐢𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐞, 𝐄𝐧𝐠𝐫. 𝐌𝐲𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐞 𝐌𝐢𝐬𝐞, and 𝐄𝐧𝐠𝐫.
