The photo contest “Beauty of union members” that the District Labor Federation organized last year is a testament to the above spirit. For the first time organizing an online photo contest, the union officials of the Tan Ky District Labor Federation encountered many difficulties during the implementation process, especially difficulties in the judging stage.

They understand the difficulties of part-time union officials like us, who are busy and have little time, so they are always ready to support and create maximum conditions. Besides, they also understand our strengths to create opportunities for us to develop in the most confident and comfortable way."

With that understanding, in the process of implementing programs and activities to grassroots unions, the District Labor Federation always bases on the characteristics of each unit and the strengths of each individual.

“Before implementing any activity, we always carefully analyze what the activity requires and what type of union members and workers it is suitable for. After careful analysis, instead of implementing it in a widespread and mass manner, we choose to focus on the appropriate groups of people. This helps the activities focus on quality, avoiding dilution and formality,” said Ms. Nguyen Thi Mai - Vice President of the Tan Ky District Labor Federation.
