Faced with the fact that Mai Linh Taxi's finances were only enough to maintain daily operations, Mr. Ho Huy sent out a petition for help to many places.

Source ofVnExpressMai Linh Joint Stock Company has just sent a petition to the Vice Chairman of the National Assembly's Committee on Social Affairs and the General Director of Vietnam Social Security to request exemption of interest and penalties for social insurance debt.

The petition for review signed by Mai Linh Chairman Ho Huy said that the company is facing fierce and unfair competition from competitors Grab and Uber, causing revenue to decrease by 30% compared to previous years.

As of October 31, 2017, the debt for social insurance, health insurance and unemployment insurance of this enterprise was nearly 182 billion VND, of which the principal debt was more than 105 billion VND and nearly 77 billion VND in interest.

Facing the risk of tens of thousands of workers losing their jobs and losing their big brand, Mai Linh requested the National Assembly's Committee on Social Affairs, the Ministry of Finance, and the Vietnam Social Security to resolve the urgent difficulties ahead so that the company can maintain and develop in the long term.

Mai Linh Group's leaders admitted that revenue decreased by 30% due to competition with Grab and Uber.

Mai Linh's chairman affirmed that he has been constantly looking for solutions to revive the business, such as negotiating debt extensions with individual investors, negotiating loan interest rates, opening a technology-based motorbike taxi service... However, Mr. Ho Huy admitted,The company only ensures finance to maintain daily business operations.

"Without support from competent State agencies in the near future, Mai Linh will certainly lose its ability to pay in a very short time because its revenue will not be able to pay due debts, overdue debts, and outstanding tax obligations, social insurance, health insurance and unemployment insurance," said Chairman Ho Huy.

According to the proposal this enterprise sent to the competent authority,Mai Linh wants to be exempted from interest on the old amount (over 150 billion VND) for each company in the system to pay the principal within 20 months from the beginning of 2018, paying 6 billion VND per month and exempted from late payment penalties.

"During the principal repayment process, Mai Linh hopes that Vietnam Social Security will consider debt forgiveness and debt reduction so that the unit can overcome difficulties, have conditions to repay the principal to Social Security and ensure jobs for 24,000 workers," the unit proposed.With insurance obligations arising from January 1, 2018, this unit commits to fully perform.

However, texchange withVnExpress, Mai Linh's media representative refused to comment on the above information. In addition, this person said that he had checked internal departments and divisions since yesterday afternoon but this document did not appear.
