Increased allowance, veterans in Hai Duong excited

Mr. Vu Dinh Thang, in zone 3, Cam Thuong ward (Hai Duong city, right) is excited to receive an increase in his subsidy.

Practical source of encouragement

The Ministry of National Defense has just issued Circular 53/2024/TT-BQP regulating the adjustment of monthly allowances for soldiers and people working in secretarial work who receive salaries similar to those of soldiers who have been demobilized, discharged, or quit their jobs. Accordingly, the monthly allowance of these people from July 2024 will be increased by 15% compared to the level received in June 2024. The Circular takes effect from November 1, 2024.

Mr. Vu Dinh Thang, 68 years old, living in Zone 3, Cam Thuong Ward (Hai Duong City) has served in the army for more than 16 years and 3 months and is receiving a monthly allowance of VND2,288,000. After the 15% increase, Mr. Thang will receive a monthly allowance of VND2,746,000. "I have just undergone a long-term stroke treatment. The allowance will help my family cover more medical expenses and daily living expenses," said Mr. Thang.

Mr. Nguyen Trong Ngu, 70 years old, in Kim Chue village, An Duc commune (Ninh Giang) said that the increase in the subsidy level shows the special attention of the Party and the State for those who have "gone through life and died" to protect the Fatherland like him. "In our old age, our children are not well off, we can only rely on the monthly subsidy from the State. This is practical material support and a source of spiritual encouragement that helps us have more joy in life," said Mr. Ngu.

Timely

Mr. Nguyen Trong Ngu in An Duc commune (Ninh Giang) said that the increase in subsidy level shows the special attention of the Party and State for veterans.

The subjects subject to the adjustment to increase the subsidy level according to Circular 53/2024/TT-BQP are those who are currently enjoying the benefits according to Decision 142 of the Prime Minister on implementing the regime for soldiers participating in the resistance war against the US to save the country with less than 20 years of service in the army who have been demobilized, discharged and returned to their localities and Decision 62 on the regime and policies for subjects participating in the war to protect the Fatherland, performing international missions in Cambodia, helping Laos after April 30, 1975 who have been demobilized, discharged, or quit their jobs.

According to the Department of Labor, War Invalids and Social Affairs of Hai Duong, as of October 2024, the whole province has 510 people receiving monthly allowances under Decision 142 and Decision 62 of the Prime Minister (including police and military forces). In Hai Duong, the payment of increased allowances for subjects under Circular 53/2024/TT-BQP will be implemented from November 2024. The budget for adjusting allowances will be guaranteed.

Lieutenant Colonel Ta Minh Phuong, Deputy Chief of Political Affairs of the Hai Duong Provincial Military Command, said that this policy is even more meaningful when it is implemented on the occasion of the 80th anniversary of the founding of the Vietnam People's Army (December 22, 1944 - December 22, 2024) and the 35th anniversary of the National Defense Day (December 22, 1989 - December 22, 2024).
