TPO - After Tien Phong's reflection, the People's Committee of Cam Lam district, Khanh Hoa province has directed to stop the campaign to collect a "voluntary" fee of 100,000 VND/student to repair the school campus for parents to pick up students.

On March 7, Tien Phong's source said that Mr. Huynh Uy Vien - Vice Chairman of Cam Lam District People's Committee, has directed to stop collecting each parent's "willing" contribution of a minimum of 100,000 VND to repair the campus of Suoi Tan Primary School, Suoi Tan Commune, Cam Lam District.

Suoi Tan Primary School - where the scandal occurred - called on each parent to contribute according to their generosity, but the minimum amount was 100,000 VND.

Specifically, Cam Lam District People's Committee has requested the District Department of Education and Training to thoroughly inform all schools to strictly follow regulations on fundraising in education.

Previously, on February 22, many social networking sites in Khanh Hoa spread information about a local primary school calling on parents to contribute to repairing the school campus with a total estimated cost of 258 million VND.

According to the posted content, Suoi Tan Primary School has a total of 957 students, and it is estimated that each student will have to contribute 270,000 VND/student out of the total estimated budget of 258 million VND. The contribution level when implemented is "depending on the generosity" but each parent must contribute a minimum of 100,000 VND and will be implemented until the end of May 2025.

As Tien Phong reported, Ms. Nguyen Thi Hoang Oanh - Principal of Suoi Tan Primary School, said: The school has received the information that has been spread and confirmed that the "finalization" of the above amount is incorrect.

“Through discussion, most of the members of the Parents’ Association wanted to repair the area in front of the school gate because the gate is easily flooded during the rainy season, causing inconvenience to students when going to school. When proposing the implementation of the content, all members agreed to support and voluntarily proposed a contribution of 100,000 VND. The school did not impose or give a specific amount, but only informed that the amount depends on the generosity,” Ms. Oanh explained.
