Chairwoman of the city’s Labour Federation Phan Thi Thuy Linh said that after nearly 10 years of organising the "Tet Sum Vay" Programme with different themes, scales, and forms, local trade union members and workers have received a lot of affection and many practical welfare programmes brought by the Trade Union organisations.

This is a practical and meaningful activity that helps trade union members and workers have the opportunity to access goods with guaranteed quality and stable prices as well as enjoy many other promotional and preferential programmes from suppliers.
