The couple Ho Nhat Tuyen and Truong Thi Thanh Lien, both 41 years old, in Tay Hoa District’s Hoa Binh 1 Commune are living in a temporary small tent after they had to sell their house to pay the hospital fees for their son.
The family is living in a temporary tent
At this time of the year, the central region of Vietnam is facing rains and storms, so it is quite dangerous for the four-member family to live in such a tent.
Lien said that the heavy rain over recent days had caused leaks in her tent. However, there was no choice for them as they were unemployed due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
Lien said the couple have two children Ho Thanh Tien, 20, and Ho Thanh Phuong, 17. Every day, Lien does farm work and Tien acts as a builder. But, since 2016, Tuyen’s left eye has become purblind. Meanwhile, Tien started suffering from schizophrenia from 2016.
The couple had to borrow from different sources for Tien’s treatment. Then they had to sell their house for VND270 million (USD11,739) to pay the loans.
After paying the loans, only VND5 million were left, so they had to set up a tent in the area which was their cowshed to live.
Luong Tan Ngai, chairman of Hoa Binh 1 Commune, said that Lien’s family receives a monthly subsidy of VND1.1 million from the government. Local authorities have sometimes supported them with gifts.
