He also asked the district administration to ensure nutrition for families with children, especially those who are disadvantaged and cannot afford to buy goods.
When meeting the Deputy Prime Minister, many dwellers in ward 14, Go Vap district said that they have been facing difficulties because of the prolonged Covid-19 epidemic especially when Ho Chi Minh City implemented stricter social distancing.
Therefore, they expected electricity and water exemption or reduction to reduce the burden of living.
Some villagers also complained that they have only received relief bags from the government for four months now, but have not received any financial support.
After listening to people's complaints, Deputy Prime Minister Vu Duc Dam asked the district government to review to give timely support to residents. In particular, the local government must give assistance to disadvantaged people if they are eligible for support according to the current policy of Ho Chi Minh City.
