According to Mr. Minh, the program demonstrates the humane and sharing culture of Vietnamese people, spreading the message of gratitude to those who have contributed to building symbolic works and contributing to improving the quality of life and happiness index of Vietnamese people.

Mr. Phan Van Anh - Vice President of the Vietnam General Confederation of Labor - said that the Build Tet 2025 program is a valuable effort of Coteccons and Nhan Dan Newspaper to help workers, especially construction workers, have a joyful, warm and happy Tet. From there, it creates motivation for workers to work harder and improve the quality of products.

Not just a Tet gift, "Build Tet 2025" is also a sharing and gratitude.

Sharing about the journey of organizing this special program, Ms. Nguyen Trinh Thuy Trang - Deputy General Director of Coteccons - said that for construction workers, the dream for their family and children is a strong source of motivation to help them overcome difficulties and bring happiness in their daily work.

"Coteccons' Tet Construction Program has sown the seeds of joy and warmth during Tet, and this year we aspire to send a deeper message of gratitude through the commitment to "Building Dreams", as a way to show empathy and appreciation for the motivation hidden in their tireless efforts. The focus of this year's program is scholarships for workers' families who meet the criteria. This will be a gift to help build dreams for children, which is also the greatest motivation for parents," said Ms. Trang.

Ms. Trang said that after 2 years of implementing Tet Construction, Coteccons understands more about the thoughts and wishes of workers, so in addition to practical needs such as gifts or bus tickets to go home for Tet, children are also a big concern for workers. "This year, we have expanded the criteria for scholarships for students with good academic performance to continue to encourage them to continue to strive harder in the future," Ms. Trang said.

Ms. Trang emphasized that in addition to the Tet gifts given to workers, the greater value that the program wants to spread is the spiritual value, inspiring learning efforts for workers' children through scholarships.

According to the General Statistics Office, the number of people working in the industrial and construction sector is 17 million, accounting for 33.0%. The average income of workers is about 7.6 million VND/month in the third quarter of 2024. On average, each worker works 8-12 hours/day and 6-7 days/week. Construction workers and sanitation workers are also the groups that receive the least attention in society.

Ms. Nguyen Trinh Thuy Trang said that at Coteccons and Unicons, the average income of workers is at least 12 million VND/month. With the view that "a happy construction site is a safe construction site", last year the company spent more than 26,000 hours training safety skills for more than 30,000 workers. Thanks to that, the company has more than 41.6 million hours of safe construction. At the same time, Coteccons also focuses on investing in advanced technology and techniques to support construction workers to complete their work effectively, minimizing risks related to labor safety.
