Disbursing loans for job creation program
(VBSP News) VBSP has just been supplemented VND 25 billion by the Central Bank for job creation program. Localities are disbursing this new capital to support local people.
Loans used effectively
Tran Thi Thuy Van (group 1 Vinh Diem, Ngoc Hiep ward, Nha Trang city) had 200 coconut trees in her garden. After many years, the coconut trees got degraded. Then, she borrowed VND 50 million from the job creation fund of VBSP to renovate the coconut trees and plant new coconut trees. Now, her coconut garden gives her family VND 5 to 8 million a month. Nguyen Van Diep in Khanh Vinh Township also borrowed VND 100 million from the VBSP to plant 370 orange trees and 200 grapefruit trees in Thac Trau area in Khanh Nam Commune, Khanh Vinh District. In 2018, grapefruit and orange trees began to be harvested.
Credit for job creation is one of the important channels to support people in earning, reducing poverty sustainably and creating new jobs. By November 15, total credit balance for job creation was over VND 299.6 billion with 9,142 borrowers. The capital of the program has brought a very positive effect; credit is safe because of the low rate of bad debts and overdue debts. However, in recent years, the capital source for job creation program has not met the demand of loans of local people. Localities as well as VBSP often propose the Central and the provincial budget to supplement loans for job creation. At the same time, it is recommended to increase the lending level for this program.

This policy, effective from November 8, 2019, is good news for local people. Bui Nhat Quang - Deputy Director of VBSP Khanh Hoa said that Decree 74 has some noticeable new points that the loan level is raised to a maximum of VND 100 million for employees; for production and business establishments, the maximum loan amount is VND 2 billion for each project and not exceeding VND100 million for each employee.
