Settle down to make a living
The social housing loan program of the Vietnam Bank for Social Policies is considered the “key” to help many families of civil servants, public employees, and low-income workers build a home. From there, they can work with peace of mind, stabilize their lives, and contribute to ensuring social security in the locality.
The family of Mr. Le Chau (Phan Ri Cua commune), a civil servant in the commune, whose wife is a small trader, has just completed a new, spacious house thanks to a loan of 400 million VND from the social housing loan program. Previously, the couple lived in a small, cramped house given by their parents after their wedding. Through the local Women's Union, the family received preferential loans to build a spacious, spacious house. "Thanks to this loan, my wife and I's dream of having a new house has come true. Having a solid house gives us more motivation to do business and raise our children," Mr. Chau shared.
Similarly, Ms. Nguyen Thi Sen, a teacher at Bong Sen Kindergarten (Lien Huong commune), was also moved when talking about the newly completed house: “I never thought I could build such a spacious new house, it was like a dream. After many years of saving, my husband and I could only save 200 million VND, a very modest amount compared to the current cost of building a house. Luckily, I was able to borrow an additional 500 million VND from the social housing program. The new house is a solid foundation for our family to feel secure in building a long-term career.” Ms. Sen and her husband previously lived temporarily in a small house on land given by their parents, the completed home today is the happiness of the couple and their children.
Capital efficiency
Ms. Chau Thi Bich Le, Head of the Savings and Loan Group and Secretary of the Party Cell of Song Thanh Village (Phan Ri Cua Commune) said: “The group currently has 60 households borrowing capital with a total outstanding debt of 2.4 billion VND. In addition to borrowing capital to build houses, people here mainly work as fishermen, masons, and small traders. Capital from the Vietnam Bank for Social Policies has helped people buy fishing gear, trade seafood, and fruits. Borrowing households all use the capital for the right purpose, repaying principal and interest on time.”
