On the morning of January 27, Mr. Huynh Tan Tuan, Principal of Quang Nam Medical College, said that the school had just received additional support of 4.6 billion VND from the People's Committee of Quang Nam province to pay salaries for lecturers, staff and workers.
In addition to the more than 1.2 billion VND previously spent, the school has more than 5.8 billion VND to pay salaries to employees who have been owed for many months.
Previously, the People's Committee of Quang Nam province allocated more than 1.2 billion VND for the school to temporarily pay 1 month's salary to staff, lecturers and workers. This amount was taken from the unallocated training career source in the provincial budget estimate for 2023 to train Lao students in 2022.

According to Mr. Tuan, the 4.6 billion VND, along with the advance payment, is enough for the school to pay the 6-month salary and insurance arrears for staff and lecturers. There is currently a shortage of about 1.4 billion VND for 10 months of allowances.
Also according to Mr. Tuan, yesterday (January 26), the school paid 2 months of salary and insurance arrears to staff and lecturers. The remaining 4 months of salary arrears will be disbursed in the next few days.
After settling the 6-month salary arrears for employees, the school will continue to proceed with the 2024 source advance procedure to pay salaries for January and February of 2024.
Regarding the remaining funding shortfall compared to the school's needs (more than 1.4 billion VND), the People's Committee of Quang Nam province said it has directed the school to work with staff and workers to agree on debt settlement and find a solution in the coming time, to avoid complaints and lawsuits.
At the 20th session of the 10th term Quang Nam Provincial People's Council held on January 23, delegates agreed to resolve salaries and benefits for employees of Quang Nam Medical College before January 31, or before the 21st day of the 12th lunar month.
In addition, the People's Council of Quang Nam province also agreed to spend funds to support the General Hospital of Quang Nam Medical College (a unit under Quang Nam Medical College) due to its operations being affected when the province requisitioned the hospital to serve the work of admitting and treating Covid-19 patients for 4 months (from February to May 2022).
The total budget for salary and benefits for employees of Quang Nam Medical College and Quang Nam Medical College General Hospital is 4.6 billion VND.
As Thanh Nien reported, on December 14, 2023, 17 officers and lecturers of Quang Nam Medical College sent a notice of collective resignation to the school's leaders.
17 staff and lecturers of the Nursing and Basic Health Departments said they would stop working from December 18, 2023 until the school resolved the salary and allowance regime. After that, after discussions at meetings, the leave period was extended to December 31, 2023.
Up to now, Quang Nam Medical College owes 6 months of salary to 114 employees, with a total amount of more than 5.7 billion VND. In addition, this unit has been late in paying insurance for many months.
