Four generations of Mr Phuc’s family work to produce national flags and sell hundreds of thousands of flags to the market each year. |
Ahead of the National Day, family members have to work all day and night to satisfy market demand. |
They sell an average of about 50,000 flags in different sizes for the special day. |
Mr Phuc says he has pursued the career of tailoring national flags for more than 20 years to preserve the family tradition. |
This year, the domestic market is more busy than usual as the Vietnamese football team is competing at the Asian Games (ASIAD) 2018. |
The tailors have to be meticulous in their work to make a standard national flag in accordance with state regulations. |
This career helps his family make a steady income and generates jobs for 10 workers with a stable salary of between VND3 million and VND5 million. |
An employee at the workshop says he has produced national flags for more than 2 years and takes pride in the work. |
Apart from making national flags, his family also produces banners and posters. |
Mr Phuc checks all of the goods before shipping them to the southern region. |
