In the early morning of September, many people living in Tan Son Nhat ward (HCMC) were happy to go to the point to receive 100,000 VND as a National Day gift, according to the Government's resolution on giving gifts to the people on the occasion of the 80th anniversary of the August Revolution and National Day on September 2.
Having just received 500,000 VND for her family of 5, Ms. Duong Thi Bich Hoa (residing in Tan Son Nhat ward, Ho Chi Minh City) quickly took a photo to keep as a souvenir. Ms. Hoa shared that after more than 40 years of living, it was the first time she had received a special gift on a major national holiday.
"Although 100,000 VND is not much, for me the spiritual value of the gift is extremely great, it is a common joy of everyone, showing the concern of the government", she excitedly said.
Ms. Hoa said that not only herself but all the people were very excited and happy to join in the joy of the whole country. With the gifts received, Ms. Hoa said she would use them to shop for her family and celebrate the holiday with everyone.
Ms. Tran Thi Tu (residing in Tan Son Nhat ward) represented her family to receive the gift. Even at the age of 73, she still could not hide her emotions and joy when receiving gifts on the occasion of the National Day.
She shared: "I have lived for decades, this is the first time I have received such a special gift. It's not much in terms of material things, just 100,000 VND, but it's very meaningful".
Ms. Tu added that in the past two years, her health has declined a lot, and the striker has lost more than a dozen pounds. Therefore, this gift is truly a great source of encouragement. "I was very happy to receive the gift. In the near future, I will use this money to buy more medicine and nutritious foods," she said.
Mr. Nguyen Thanh Danh - Vice Chairman of Tan Son Nhat Ward People's Committee said that the ward has made careful preparations to ensure the work of giving gifts on September 2 to the people goes smoothly and safely.
Mr. Nguyen Thanh Danh shared that in the spirit of giving gifts to the country to the people on the occasion of the National Day of Independence, the ward has established 33 working groups to pay money to people in 33 neighborhoods. Cadres, civil servants, neighborhoods and security forces were ready to serve early.
"Although it is a holiday, we are still ready to serve the people in the best way," Mr. Danh emphasized.
To ensure order and safety, the ward has divided the gift-receiving schedule for each alley and neighborhood with different time frames. When coming to receive gifts, people need to bring their citizen identification card of the household owner. In case the homeowner cannot come, it is necessary to make a power of attorney for the representative to receive the replacement.
Mr. Danh said that the budget allocated to the ward is 5.6 billion VND. "As of yesterday afternoon, households have registered via the VNeID application to receive gifts of more than 500 million VND," he added.
"This is a great joy that has never been seen before. 80 years of the National Day, people received gifts from the government, this is a great motivation, a joy and excitement not only for me but also for the cadres, civil servants and all the people in the ward", Mr. Nguyen Thanh Danh confided.
Those who receive the 100,000 VND gift directly are those who have not registered their bank account number on the VNeID application, while those who have registered their account number will receive it via bank transfer.
The Department of Administrative Management of Social Order (PC06) of Ho Chi Minh City Police guides how to receive gifts, people can register to receive gifts through 2 forms:
- Use the VNeID application to register, link to a bank account that has been linked to a social security account. To ensure that gift giving is done quickly and conveniently, and to encourage people to register to receive gifts through the VNeID application due to the simple and convenient implementation method, gift giving is done through the form of transfer to the citizen account registered on VNeID, so people do not waste time coming to receive directly.
- Receive directly at the People's Committee at the commune level (according to the location announced by the People's Committee at the commune level). The recommendation applies to cases that cannot register to receive gifts through the VNeID application.
