Saigon Investment Group (SGI) has signed a contract to sponsor 100,000 USD for the activities of the World Vovinam Federation (VVVF) in 2009.
The fund will support Vovinam ( Vietnam martial arts) competitions in 2009, including the first world championship from July 26-30 and the third Asian Indoor Games, both in November in Ho Chi Minh City.
