The program has truly brought practical results, contributing positively to eliminating temporary and dilapidated houses and realizing the dream of settling down for workers.
Chairman of the Long An Provincial Federation of Labor Nguyen Van Qui congratulated Ms. My and Ms. Toan's family on having a new house. At the same time, I also hope that the two sisters will continue to strive to improve their lives, accumulate to renovate the house to be more spacious and actively work at the unit, continuing to stick with the Trade Union organization.
Sharing the joy of receiving the Union Shelter, union member Pham Thi My said that because her family's income is still difficult, just enough to cover daily living, there is not enough money to build a house. When she learned that the Union supported her with some money to build a house, she felt very happy and joyful.
