Bringing a warm Tet to difficult places
In the days leading up to the Binh Ngo Lunar New Year 2026, the program "Tet Sum vay - Spring of Gratitude to the Party" has been implemented by Vietnam Railways Corporation and the Vietnam Railway Trade Union to many stations and remote railway tracks.
Moreover, these are also places that suffered heavy damage after storms and floods.

According to Mr. Thang, with the motto "All union members and workers have Tet, celebrate Tet", Vietnam Railways Corporation and the Standing Committee of the Vietnam Railway Trade Union have issued a plan to care for workers' lives and organize safe transportation during the Binh Ngo Lunar New Year 2026.
At Chi Thanh station (Tuy An Bac commune) and La Hai (Dong Xuan commune), the working atmosphere during Tet peak days is urgent. Many officials and employees, even though their houses are flooded in floods, still do not neglect their duties. Some infrastructure items of the station have not been completely repaired to date.
Recognizing those efforts, the Chairman of the Vietnam Railway Trade Union presented Tet Sum vay gifts, wishing to add warmth to the year-end meal of officials and employees here.
