house. With a donation of 20 million VND from the trade union of the VBSP’s
provincial branch, the VBSP transaction office in Cao Phong district joined
hands with Tay Phong commune authorities to upgrade her house. Local residents
also contributed in the form of labour. After the upgrade, the house had a new corrugated
