00:00:12.333 --> 00:00:14.413 
The audience is following Bao Dong's union news. 

00:00:14.773 --> 00:00:17.653 
Now, let's review the highlights of
the past week with us. 

00:00:19.333 --> 00:00:22.453 
Uncertainty about the origin of food at
ticket markets and temporary markets in Hanoi, 

00:00:22.833 --> 00:00:24.973 
people pay more to go to the supermarket. 

00:00:25.493 --> 00:00:29.933 
Meanwhile, low-income workers have
chosen to ask their family to send them 

00:00:29.933 --> 00:00:31.413 
food from their hometown. 

00:00:32.053 --> 00:00:35.013 
While ensuring clear origin, good
quality, and cheap replacement. 

00:00:35.773 --> 00:00:39.130 
However, many workers also share the
fact that prices of 

00:00:39.130 --> 00:00:40.473 
goods are constantly increasing, 

00:00:40.473 --> 00:00:43.977 
while their salary is still stagnant,
they will consider moving from Hanoi, 

00:00:43.977 --> 00:00:46.313 
returning to their hometown to find a job, 

00:00:46.773 --> 00:00:48.473 
reduce the burden of living expenses. 

00:00:50.605 --> 00:00:54.373 
On the morning of October 10-10, a group
of 62 doctors from Gia Lai province left 

00:00:54.373 --> 00:00:55.785 
for Thai Nguyen and Cao Bang 

00:00:55.785 --> 00:00:57.585 
support to overcome the consequences of storms and floods. 

00:00:58.145 --> 00:01:00.125 
The support period is from October 11 to 17. 

00:01:01.065 --> 00:01:04.045 
During the working period, the
delegation will coordinate with the local health sector 

00:01:04.045 --> 00:01:07.765 
deploy environmental sanitation,
disinfect water sources, prevent epidemics, 

00:01:08.145 --> 00:01:11.185 
provide medicine and promote health
education to people affected by floods. 

00:01:11.925 --> 00:01:14.488 
The province also provided emergency
support of 4 billion VND to 

00:01:14.488 --> 00:01:15.885 
4 localities that suffered heavy damage 

00:01:15.885 --> 00:01:19.650 
due to storms and floods, Thai Nguyen,
Lang Son, Cao Bang and Bac Ninh are 

00:01:19.650 --> 00:01:20.905 
each worth 1 billion VND. 

00:01:23.107 --> 00:01:26.180 
Implementing the 2025 trade union step
program, the Service Committee of the 

00:01:26.180 --> 00:01:29.767 
Dong Nai Provincial Youth Union
Federation has directed grassroots trade unions in the province 

00:01:29.767 --> 00:01:33.527 
Coordinate with enterprises to widely
deploy to union members and workers. 

00:01:33.767 --> 00:01:37.880 
Accordingly, according to reports from
trade unions at all levels, by the end 

00:01:37.880 --> 00:01:41.361 
of September-September 2025, there were
133 grassroots trade unions in Dong 

00:01:41.361 --> 00:01:42.627 
Nai province implementing enterprises. 

00:01:42.627 --> 00:01:47.292 
implement the union level step with
nearly 147,000 union members and workers 

00:01:47.292 --> 00:01:48.847 
participating and receiving benefits. 

00:01:48.847 --> 00:01:53.301 
A source from the October 11 alert said
that the Ho Chi Minh City People's 

00:01:53.301 --> 00:01:57.162 
Committee has just sent a document to
the Ministry of Home Affairs on 

00:01:57.162 --> 00:01:58.647 
adjusting the minimum wage division 

00:01:58.647 --> 00:02:02.067 
for some communes, wards, and special
zones in Ho Chi Minh City. 

00:02:02.727 --> 00:02:05.292 
Accordingly, the Ho Chi Minh City
People's Committee requested the 

00:02:05.292 --> 00:02:08.371 
Ministry of Home Affairs to promptly
recommend the government to issue a 

00:02:08.371 --> 00:02:10.167 
decree on the minimum wage in 2026. 

00:02:10.347 --> 00:02:15.180 
In which, adjusting the minimum wage
division from region 3 to region 2 for 

00:02:15.180 --> 00:02:18.287 
Kim Long commune, Chau Nuc
commune, Ngai Giao commune, 

00:02:18.287 --> 00:02:22.392 
Nghia Thanh commune, Long Hai commune,
Long Dien commune and Con Dao special 

00:02:22.392 --> 00:02:24.287 
zone in Ho Chi Minh City. 

00:02:25.827 --> 00:02:28.819 
Ladies and gentlemen, although you have
researched social housing policies, with 

00:02:28.819 --> 00:02:31.267 
a price of about 1.5 billion VND per unit, 

00:02:31.767 --> 00:02:35.787 
many workers expect more preferential
flight packages to realize their dreams. 

00:02:37.643 --> 00:02:40.483 
After more than 10 years of working in
Bac Thang Long Industrial Park, Hanoi, 

00:02:40.483 --> 00:02:43.526 
Mr. Thao and his wife have not been able
to buy a house and have 

00:02:43.526 --> 00:02:44.743 
to live in a rented house. 

00:02:45.143 --> 00:02:48.726 
Although his job is stable and his
children study near their workplace to 

00:02:48.726 --> 00:02:52.583 
make transportation more convenient, his
family's dream of settling down is still far away. 

00:02:52.763 --> 00:02:56.223 
According to Mr. Thao, he has learned
about the policy of buying social housing. 

00:02:56.563 --> 00:02:59.719 
However, the biggest obstacle is still
financial capacity and procedures to 

00:02:59.719 --> 00:03:03.162 
access preferential loans, because for
him and his wife, having about 1.5 

00:03:03.162 --> 00:03:05.743 
billion VND to buy a house is very difficult. 

00:03:06.415 --> 00:03:11.015 
However, when I have decided to buy it,
I will tell you from my family. 

00:03:11.015 --> 00:03:15.615 
A couple, three children, and
grandchildren of school age 

00:03:15.615 --> 00:03:20.615 
well, if I had saved up, it would not
be enough to buy 

00:03:20.615 --> 00:03:23.732 
If we contribute a lot of money each
year, if we try our best, my husband and 

00:03:23.732 --> 00:03:25.015 
I will save about 50 million VND. 

00:03:25.015 --> 00:03:29.015 
With the children of school age, when
will we have enough money to buy? 

00:03:29.015 --> 00:03:32.415 
So that is something I find very
reasonable and I also very much appreciate it to you guys here 

00:03:32.415 --> 00:03:36.075 
Access the call for preferential
airlines to buy state-owned houses 

00:03:36.149 --> 00:03:40.069 
Mr. Thao's family is not happy, the need
for social housing in areas near 

00:03:40.069 --> 00:03:42.589 
industrial parks is a common concern for many workers. 

00:03:43.009 --> 00:03:46.029 
Mr. Le Tien Manh, a worker renting a
house in Thien Loc commune, is also 

00:03:46.029 --> 00:03:49.049 
researching the application for a social
housing purchase after many years of living for hire. 

00:03:50.129 --> 00:03:53.740 
Mr. Manh said that in Bac Thang Long
Industrial Park alone, the number of 

00:03:53.740 --> 00:03:57.609 
workers is very large, but the social
housing fund near this area is still limited. 

00:03:57.850 --> 00:04:03.410 
Partly because of work, my family also
works nearby. 

00:04:03.830 --> 00:04:06.270 
Second, I have lived here for quite a while. 

00:04:06.270 --> 00:04:10.410 
so I want to buy here for convenience 

00:04:10.410 --> 00:04:14.150 
with travel work to make it convenient. 

00:04:14.150 --> 00:04:20.406 
It is very hoped that the above
departments will invest in building 

00:04:20.406 --> 00:04:21.970 
many trung tâms 

00:04:21.970 --> 00:04:26.270 
or social housing areas for
low-income people 

00:04:26.270 --> 00:04:28.510 
to make it easier to access. 

00:04:29.626 --> 00:04:33.666 
Because as a social housing agency, the
support situation will continue. 

00:04:34.446 --> 00:04:37.206 
That is, why do people
have families and counts, right? 

00:04:37.826 --> 00:04:42.146 
That everyone has a place to live,
everyone has access to education. 

00:04:42.146 --> 00:04:45.906 
So we have to turn around a housing
fund, called a national housing fund 

00:04:45.906 --> 00:04:49.646 
in budget money, or in
other mobilized sources, 

00:04:49.946 --> 00:04:51.566 
or savings from the people. 

00:04:52.766 --> 00:04:57.846 
That, and rotating is almost to be fair. 

00:04:57.846 --> 00:05:01.960 
The person that the investor rotates,
they only know how to turn them 

00:05:01.960 --> 00:05:03.226 
over to the state, 

00:05:03.386 --> 00:05:07.686 
To redistribution, they have to
redistribution and hire people with speedy income. 

00:05:08.106 --> 00:05:13.626 
Even those with high incomes hired them
are not eligible for them to pay. 

00:05:14.446 --> 00:05:15.746 
It's still for them. 

00:05:17.546 --> 00:05:19.246 
That is the strength of the social housing. 

00:05:19.964 --> 00:05:23.451 
In reality, the development of social
housing, especially in industrial parks, 

00:05:23.451 --> 00:05:26.304 
not only solves the problem
of housing for workers, 

00:05:26.304 --> 00:05:30.224 
but also contribute to stabilizing human
resources and promoting local economic development. 

00:05:30.564 --> 00:05:33.770 
The early implementation of synchronous
policies, from four-pund loan support to 

00:05:33.770 --> 00:05:37.267 
expanding social housing planning, is a
legitimate and urgent desire of millions 

00:05:37.267 --> 00:05:38.724 
of workers across the country. 

00:05:40.636 --> 00:05:44.536 
In a legal consultation today, Ms. Doc's
question was sent to the next program. 

00:05:45.316 --> 00:05:49.320 
From July 1, 2025, when men have
children, how will they 

00:05:49.320 --> 00:05:50.776 
be given maternity leave? 

00:05:51.376 --> 00:05:54.747 
After that, lawyer Dao Nguyen Thuat,
Hanoi Bar Association will 

00:05:54.747 --> 00:05:56.096 
answer Ms. Doc's question. 

00:05:57.899 --> 00:06:03.494 
From July 1, 2025, within 60 days from
the date of the wife's birth, male 

00:06:03.494 --> 00:06:05.359 
employees participating in social insurance, 

00:06:05.979 --> 00:06:10.019 
compulsory maternity leave for the
following period of time. 

00:06:10.739 --> 00:06:16.456 
5 working days off as a normal wife, 7
working days off as a wife giving birth 

00:06:16.456 --> 00:06:19.819 
who needs surgery or giving birth
under 32 weeks old. 

00:06:19.939 --> 00:06:23.599 
Male workers will have 10 working days
off when their wives give birth. 

00:06:23.599 --> 00:06:28.147 
Male workers will have 3 more days off,
which is a total of 13 days for each 

00:06:28.147 --> 00:06:32.159 
child born from the third child onwards
in the case of 3 or more children. 

00:06:32.519 --> 00:06:38.139 
Male workers will have 14 working days
off when their twin wives need surgery. 

00:06:38.739 --> 00:06:43.035 
In case of 3 or more children who need
surgery, 3 more days off for each child 

00:06:43.035 --> 00:06:44.299 
from the 3rd child onwards. 

00:06:45.499 --> 00:06:51.032 
In case the employee takes a break many
times, the first day of work must be the 

00:06:51.032 --> 00:06:52.659 
last time, within 60 days. 

00:06:53.579 --> 00:06:57.275 
The date the wife gives birth and the
total time off work to enjoy maternity 

00:06:57.275 --> 00:06:58.999 
benefits must not exceed the prescribed time. 

00:06:59.399 --> 00:07:03.989 
Thus, from July 1, 2025, the law allows
male workers to take a day off to take 

00:07:03.989 --> 00:07:08.579 
care of their wives and children for the
first 60 days from the date of wife's birth, 

00:07:09.039 --> 00:07:12.879 
instead of being off for only the first
30 days as before July 1, 2025. 

00:07:14.663 --> 00:07:16.403 
Thank you for Mr. Dao Nguyen Thuat's recent answers. 

00:07:16.763 --> 00:07:20.371 
We will continue to receive questions
from the science reader of 

00:07:20.371 --> 00:07:21.683 
the drafting committee a.com.com.vn 

00:07:21.683 --> 00:07:26.283 
Now, the program's duration is over. See
you again in the next news.
