Approximately 310,000 people currently residing in the district, of which nearly 12,500 are of Vietnamese descent. Therefore, the shopping center and other facilities, established by Vietnamese expatriates in Berlin and the neighboring state of Brandenburg, have played a significant role in building social bridges in many years. Dong Xuan is also a major contributor to Berlin's tax revenue, providing numerous jobs, and serving as a significant cultural venue for various segments of Germany's population, especially the youth./.
