"We know that many residents are in need of support and we’re trying to include those people in the list for receiving this aid package," said Mr. Mai.
"Though the aid is not much, it’s a heartfelt effort by the city’s authorities and citizens. We hope everyone will unite and strictly follow all safety rules during this pandemic", he added.
The city plans to use “COVID-19 green cards” based on vaccination status as an effort to contain the pandemic during its process to restore the economy.
