15/1/20
Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc shared the joy of the Lunar New
Year (Tet) festival with workers, low-income
people and Agent Orange victims at a programme in the Mekong
Delta province of Vinh Long, on January 14.
At the event in Vung Liem township of Vung Liem district,
Chairman of the provincial People’s Committee Lu Quang Ngoi said in the run up
to Tet, local authorities have visited and presented gifts worth over 7 billion
VND (302,500 USD) to more than 23,500 revolution contributors.
About 26,000 Tet gift packages with the total value of over
7.5 billion VND have also reached poor and near-poor families, persons with
disabilities, underprivileged children and other disadvantaged groups.
Social and charitable organisations in the province have also
worked to raise donations to support disadvantaged and disaster-hit families,
he noted.
The official said businesses in Vinh Long have built plans on
Tet bonuses and gifts for their workers. In particular, firms based in local
industrial parks are set to give bonuses worth more than 220 billion VND and
Tet gifts worth over 9 billion VND to their employees. They also plan to dole
out some 8.5 billion VND to cover the transportation costs for workers to
travel back to their hometowns for Tet.
Speaking highly of the socio-economic development in Vinh
Long, PM Phuc applauded the province’s attention to ensuring a merry Tet for
workers and disadvantaged people.
The Government leader asked provincial authorities and the
Vietnam General Confederation of Labour to mobilise resources for building
social infrastructure facilities like kindergartens, canteens and housing for
labourers in industrial parks. He also requested business owners to pay more
heed to their employees’ material and spiritual lives.
On this occasion, the PM handed over 100 houses for the poor
in Vinh Long province./.

Local trade unions at all levels should prepare nearly 31,000 Tet gift packages for poor workers and provided free bus and train tickets to reunite labourers with their families.
Party and State's leaders always pay attention and cares for the poor and disadvantaged people. It's so good to see!
It proves Vietnam's achievements in promoting and caring for people's rights and interests.
Presenting gifts to families on social welfare, poor households and victims of Agent Orange (AO)/dioxin is good tradition of Vietnam's leaders.
Vietnam has help each others in all times and all levels!
