Labor achievements plus attention from leaders and companies are a great encouragement for immigrant workers. Hoang Thi Huong, a worker of Binh Duong Garment Company, said “On Tet holiday, Binh Duong Garment Company holds a year-end party for workers and rents coaches to take immigrant workers to their hometowns”.
Experts said that immigrant workforce plays a crucial role in local economy’s development. And, Tet holiday is a good chance for businesses to express their gratitude to the workforce. Gifts, rented coaches for alien workers, year-end parties… show attention and sharing between employers and employees. A worker of Phon Vinh Ltd. in Tan Uyen district, said “owing impacts from global economic recession, this year the company only granted gifts and Tet bonus for workers”.
Along with joy from supporting coaches for alien workers, immigrant workers staying the province for Tet enjoy attention from local leaders and businesses. Gifts worth VND30mil and tourism fares will be presented to immigrant workers staying the province for Tet 2011. Besides, cultural and art activities will be also held for immigrant workers staying the province for Tet.
Thanh Giang, working at Nam Tan Uyen IP, said “I will stay here for Tet, so I will be very unhappy and homesick. Khanh Binh commune Youth Union will hold a music show for immigrant workers staying the province for Tet. I think this year’s Tet will be happier”.
Duong Hoang Anh, a lodger at Tan Uyen, said “this is the third year I stay her for Tet. Annually, local youth union holds festivals to bring a warmer Spring for alien youths”.
