Deputy Prime Minister Vu Duc Dam eats a 15,000 VND worker's meal
During a field inspection of the industrial kitchen at Tan Thuan Export Processing Zone (HCMC), Deputy Prime Minister Vu Duc Dam had a 15,000 VND lunch with the workers.
On May 6, after the launching ceremony of the National Occupational Safety and Health Action Month in Ho Chi Minh City, Deputy Prime Minister Vu Duc Dam and the Ho Chi Minh City Food Safety and Hygiene Committee inspected the workers' kitchen at Nidec Tosok Company (Tan Thuan Export Processing Zone, Ho Chi Minh City).
This is a worker kitchen model that Nidec Tosok Company cooperates with a domestic enterprise to provide a closed system according to the "one-way kitchen" model from clean food sources.

Here, Deputy Prime Minister Vu Duc Dam inspected and visited the food processing and sales areas. The Deputy Prime Minister highly appreciated the worker kitchen model at this factory, ensuring food hygiene and safety.
Immediately after the inspection, the Deputy Prime Minister and his delegation lined up to have lunch with the workers. The lunch included rice, soup, stir-fried dishes and savory dishes for 15,000 VND each. When the canteen staff offered him a drink, the Deputy Prime Minister refused because he wanted to have the same portion of rice that cost 15,000 VND as the workers.
