That is the meal of students at Hanoi University of Science and Technology - the second largest training institution in the country in terms of both training scale and position in the higher education sector.
Some students of the school who are participating in the national security education training course said that their meals, even though they have to pay 35,000 VND/meal (not much but not little either), are not the product of proper care and respect, but show signs of not knowing how to use any concept other than the image of "leftover rice, leftover soup", and even foreign objects in it.
If it weren't for the frank reflection of some students, this story would probably have been "sunk" and there is no guarantee that it won't happen again.
I have shared many times the student meal at the A15 Cafeteria, where the incident happened recently and is currently closed. Although I know what “student meal” is, I never thought such a story could happen here.
A meal is not about the quality of the food but about the heart of the waiter. Illustration photo. |
So the feeling in me was so surprised and angry that it was difficult to distinguish between surprise and anger. I believe that anyone who witnessed similar stories can share that feeling.
Because every meal, every meal, no matter where, from a roadside stall that fills hunger to clean, fragrant meals in high-class restaurants, all show the highest respect for the dignity of the person the meal will bring. A meal can have many levels of food, the menu can have many or few bullet points, but the attitude of the waiter, if it still has that, is only one. That is the respect for the person serving the goods, providing the service, and if there is something greater to say here, it is the responsibility to the community.
Perhaps the heartbreaking stories from children's meals at schools in mountainous areas to the meals of university students right in the capital, right at one of the most prestigious training institutions in the country, mentioned above, have sounded a warning about the responsibility of a part of us who are disregarding the community.
The nature of the recent incident has forced the Government leaders to intervene. Official dispatch No. 7385/VPCP-KGVX from the Government Office sent to the Minister of Education and Training informed Deputy Prime Minister Le Thanh Long's opinion on handling press reports stating that students at Hanoi University of Science and Technology had to eat "leftover rice and soup" and that there were "foreign objects" in their meals.
Deputy Prime Minister Le Thanh Long requested the Ministry of Education and Training to strengthen direction, management, and inspection of the implementation of food hygiene and safety for students in educational institutions, ensuring quality and safety, and preventing similar cases from recurring.
We highly welcome the handling viewpoint and responsibility of those involved. The handling spirit of the Board of Directors of Hanoi University of Science and Technology is to directly take responsibility, publicly and strictly handle the relevant collectives and individuals to ensure the rights of learners.
A meal that does not ensure food safety is something no one wants. But a meal like the one that just happened is not only something no one wants but also shows the shortcomings in monitoring activities and work in the area.
And it is also necessary to clarify whether or not "the school is searching for the student who posted the information to handle it" (?).
I really want to close the story here so that the meal is a real meal. Even with the meals of students, regardless of the region, they have the right to demand that.
