Đồng Nai has the largest index growth compared to other provinces, attracting about one million labourers working in factories and industrial zones, 70 per cent of whom come from other provinces, according to the Việt Nam’s General Statistics Office.

Although many labourers are from Đồng Nai, their personal and social lives need more attention and care. Many businesses, for example, have not satisfied entertainment needs of their workers or provided them with quality accommodations.

Thousands of workers are renting rooms in unsafe areas with poor infrastructure to save accommodation costs.

At the seminar, many officials discussed measures to enhance workers’ social life in Đồng Nai and neighbouring provinces. More sports halls, libraries, hospitals, schools and cultural houses should be built in the future, they said.

After the seminar, about 80 projects were submitted to authorities.
