The spirit of solidarity has always been considered as one of the good character traits of Vietnamese people. In the past months, COVID-19 has made VIAGS staff’s lives more difficult and tougher than ever before due to the suspension of work because of the sharp decrease in the number of flights resulting in no income. Moreover, there are considerably high numbers of VIAGS staff living in rental properties or staying in areas that undergo strict lockdown or isolation/quarantine where food supply is limited. Understanding the grave situation and empathizing with workers, The VIAGS Tan Son Nhat committee party and Board of Management directed two unions (the Youth Union and Labor Union) to launch a campaign that looked after the welfare of these in need staff. After a long day of careful, yet swift preparation (e.g. contacting food providers in the city, collaborating with other programs to ‘rescue’ agricultural products in Mekong Delta). On the afternoon of the 8th of August, 2021, the Labor Union collaborating with Youth Union paid a visit to households of more than 100 staff and handed heartful gift bags containing rice, instant noodles, fish sauce, cooking oil, eggs, canned meat, vegetables as encouragement for our colleagues during this hard time.
As planned, on the 10th of August 2021, members of the Labor Union and Youth Union will continue to visit and support more than 130 staff in need and their households. Though not large in size but meaningful in value, it is genuinely an act of concern and support from the Board of Management and other unions for laborers of the VIAGS family in these difficult days.
