Who benefit from the unprecedented US$2.6b support package? [infographics]
Vietnam Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc has officially signed a resolution on a social security package of up to VND62 trillion (roughly US$2.66 billion) to support people directly affected by the COVID-19 epidemic.
The package will not “provide indiscriminate support for all people,” he said, maintaining that the burden of the pandemic will be shared between businesses and the Government, doing it partly within its “resource capacity.”
PM Phuc ordered measures be put in place to ensure the transparency of the implementation, make sure that there would be no fraud and that the support will go to the right people
