Doan Kieu Trang, whose family in Gia Rai town’s Phong Tan commune was poor, received help to build a new house and was given a VBSP’s loan early this year to breed eel, frogs, chickens and ducks.
Do Minh Thang, chairman of the Gia Rai People’s Committee, said: “Members of poor households who do not have farmland are provided vocational skills to find stable jobs. Members of poor households who have farmland but lack money are provided VBSP’s loans for farming.”
