Countries are looking for ways to encourage people to get vaccinated against Covid-19. Photo: Getty Starting May 27, the first two million Californians to get vaccinated will each receive $50 in cash or a gift card. California Governor Gavin Newsom said this is part of an effort to promote vaccination as the state prepares to fully reopen the economy on June 15. “I announce the application of incentive cards. Two million cards will be applied on a first-come, first-served basis. If you’re 12 or older, you can get a credit card or $50 cash,” Newsom said. 10 Californians vaccinated before June 15 also have a chance to win a $1.5 million lottery prize. States and private organizations across the country also offer a variety of incentives to convince people to get vaccinated, from free baseball tickets and beer, to college scholarships and cash. Meanwhile in Iraq, the private sector is also launching initiatives to support the government’s vaccination program. A cafe in the capital Baghdad announced free service to customers who have been vaccinated. You just need to show the vaccination certificate, you will be served free delicious coffee in the shop. Shop owner Yasser Alaa said the initiative was meant to emphasize the importance of vaccination. “I think we should expand the initiatives. Life is returning to normal thanks to vaccines. We have no weapons other than vaccines in this battle. We want to urge people to understand the importance of vaccines,” Alaa said. In Chile, if you get the vaccine, you will receive a “travel pass”, which allows you to move freely within the country. “This helps to make it easier for people who have had enough vaccinations to meet and have more contact with their loved ones,” said Chile’s health minister. However, there are limits to who can receive the card. They are not allowed to travel during the curfew, respecting public health regulations. Other measures including wearing masks and social distancing must still be observed. Freedom of movement does not include travel abroad, and the “Travel Pass” will use a QR code, allowing the government to change people’s status instantly if they become infected. The European Union’s “digital certification of Covid-19”, which requires users to have a Covid-19 vaccine, is expected to take effect from July 1, is also a motivation for people to European countries speed up vaccine coverage. There is still a fear of vaccination not only in Africa but also in developed countries such as Europe or the US. Practically any vaccine has an adverse reaction. This is true for every drug, pharmaceutical, and even food. However, according to the assessment of the World Health Organization, the risks posed by vaccines are much lower than the benefits. The incidence of adverse reactions is very low. Therefore, we should not be too concerned to ignore a powerful weapon in the fight against this dangerous virus.

From April 1, lottery ticket sellers in the South have their commission cut. Before being cut, they will earn 1,100 VND for each lottery ticket sold, but from the beginning of April until now, they only get 1,050 VND, while the effort is still so hard.

50 dong that the lottery ticket seller lost, was “run” to the agent’s pocket.

On average, every day, in Ho Chi Minh City, a lottery ticket seller must be extremely hard-working and hard-working, to sell 200 tickets. With the loss of 50 VND per sheet, now their income is lost 10,000 VND per day, the monthly spending is 300,000 VND.

In Ho Chi Minh City, there are about 100,000 people selling lottery tickets like that. Multiply by the amount of 300,000 VND each month that they lose, is the corresponding amount that the agent has added: about 30 billion VND. Obviously, the number would be even larger than that, if the whole South was combined.

So, who tried to eat more from the sales of the lottery ticket sellers? Agent level 2, level 3 said that due to the above. “Above” means tier 1 agent or lottery company. But the lottery company says it does not increase the selling price, does not adjust the commission. With the available data, we understand that the problem arises from the tier 1 agent.

The adjustment of the tier 1 agent affects the revenue of the 2nd and 3rd agent. In order to preserve their profit before, the 2nd and 3rd agent fling to the thin shoulders of the ticket sellers. number of strolls. These weak people suffer.

Coming here, not intentionally insulting, but I have to say that the lottery sellers like a donkey carrying things up the slope, when they are too tired, they just need to squeeze more shirts, they will kneel. When the donkey is unable to wake up, the owner must himself, or find another way to bring things home, while if they take the trouble to bring the shirt, it will not be in that situation.

More than anyone, it is the agents who understand that the profits they get are from the lottery ticket sellers, if the agents cannot share them, they should not pour it all on the shoulders of the lottery sellers. stroll. The payout, the seemingly wasted profit, is just the product of their greedy thoughts.

I suddenly remembered the story of yesterday, on the bank of Thi Nghe canal, at a sidewalk restaurant where I used to have lunch. A 78-year-old woman from Long An came to Ho Chi Minh City to sell lottery tickets, stopped at a restaurant, and she sat across from me. I said that the owner of the shop would pay the grandmother’s part of the meal, two plates cost 50 thousand dong, or 25 thousand dong each.

But then, the shopkeeper gave the old woman 20 thousand dong. It turns out, up until now, the shopkeeper has only taken money for his meal, or other lottery ticket sellers, has 5 thousand dong for a plate of rice. The old lady seemed shy, and only relieved when I told her to keep that small amount of money.

To the lottery ticket sellers, 10 thousand is an amount of money that they have to work hard to get, and it is also a relative expenditure of their already reserved need.

I really do not understand why the poor, like the story I just told above, try to share each other, then the lottery agent is trying to redeem the extra money that the lottery ticket seller can only get. . Even more confusing, when it comes to reiterating that, the agents know that the revenue they get is thanks to the people selling lottery tickets.

So when they further tore apart the results of the lottery ticket sellers, not only were they greedy, but also ruthless.

And I think the lottery companies have to do something, but can’t say it’s not me as if they could not be, because after all, the lottery companies themselves are fed by the hard work of lottery ticket sellers.

Especially in the context, the sales and profits of lottery companies are constantly increasing!

Ha Nam Lottery One Member Limited Company (Ha Nam Lottery Company) was licensed to operate from March 9, 2009. As a 100% state-owned enterprise directly under the People’s Committee of Ha Nam province, Ha Nam Lottery One Member Limited Company has an equity of 27.38 billion VND. Representative is Mr. Nguyen Dang Khai, Chairman and Director of the company.

Over the years, the business activities of Ha Nam Lottery One Member Limited Company always fell into a state of loss, many signs of wrongdoing in the management and financial spending of the company, causing loss of state assets. tens of billions of dong.

Specifically, according to the report on business results of Ha Nam Lottery Company, in 2017 the company lost VND 1,866 billion, in 2018 it lost VND 5,613 billion, the accumulated loss as of August 31, 2018 was VND 18,754 billion / VND 27.38 billion of equity, ineffective business activities at the Company resulted in the total remaining equity by the end of 2018 to only VND8.6 billion. In which, working capital is about 2.6 billion dong (2 term deposits are 2 billion dong) and the rest are in cash and demand deposit. Capital with fixed assets is 6 billion VND, including 1 car, the rest is real estate.

Facing the situation that the company continuously made losses, on March 6, 2019, the People’s Committee of Ha Nam Province issued Document No. 558 / UBND – KT requested: Checking and checking the losses and arising costs. Unusually high at Ha Nam Lottery Co., Ltd. Stop the loss lasting for many years. Request the Director of the company to strictly abide by the regulations and take responsibility before the law for business activities at the company. However, up to now, the company’s business has not been effective, there are still many problems that need to be solved.

Piled up mistakes in financial management

In 2018, under the direction of the Department of Finance of Ha Nam Province, VACO Independent Auditing Company audited the financial statements showing a series of mistakes of Ha Nam Lottery Company. One of the most serious mistakes is that the company does not record revenue (left off the books) of the lottery lottery from July 2016 to August 2017.

According to the revenue report, this type of revenue is from 12 to 15 million VND / day. So, in the period of 14 months, it is estimated about 5.4 billion VND to stay out of the book. The question is why Ha Nam Lottery Company did not record the revenue of the lottery type lottery from July 2016 to August 2017? How that money is spent is still unknown.

In addition, the use and management of public assets of Ha Nam Lottery Company is very loose, causing wasteful use of assets, the budget is not for the right purpose, not serving the general operation. business activities of the company. Typically, the company voluntarily purchased 01 car brand TOYOTA ALTIS 2.0 produced in 2013 without consulting the owner, Ha Nam Provincial People’s Committee.

Another corporate mistake that was discovered according to the audit report is that the issuance of lottery tickets includes: Prize structure, commission rate, and the form of dialing to issue does not comply with the regulations of the Company. law.

Specifically, the Company issued lottery tickets outside the province (sold in Hanoi). The dialing is not public, there is no record. All lottery tickets released outside the province have no invoices, only handwritten transactions. This amount is still left out of the book over 1 billion dong of unpaid and confirmed debt.

In 2018, the total cost of commissions that the company spent on 2 traditional lottery agents was up to 27%, surpassing the prescribed threshold of 12%, equivalent to VND 210,000,000. According to Circular No. 138/2017 / TT -BTC guiding some specific expenses for lottery businesses specified in Decree No. 122/2017 / ND-CP, then: Lottery businesses decide but must not exceed 15% of the revenue from the lottery business, including value added tax and special consumption tax.

In 2018 alone, hundreds of expenses amounted to more than 162 million VND of the company such as: Business, reception, conference and other general expenses but there are not enough valid invoices and documents. Even there are expenses up to tens of millions of dong, but only the payment list and the signature of the payee as well as retail invoices that are not in accordance with regulations, have no legal validity. The improper financial management and spending leading to loss is unavoidable. The question here is: Is the amount spent on items without full invoices and documents in accordance with the law is reasonable and actually spent?

For clear information, the PV contacted Ha Nam Lottery One Member Limited Company and was told by Mr. Quach Anh Hien – Head of Administration Department of Ha Nam Lottery Company: “Ha Nam Lottery Company is owned by the Provincial People’s Committee. When the Commission has a directing document, we can provide relevant information to the press ”.

Although it was explained by the PV that related to the use and management of finance, the books on the side of Ha Nam Lottery Company are independent and autonomous, while the Provincial People’s Committee only manages people. For some reason, when the PV contacted Ha Nam Lottery Company many times but did not receive any answer, the company unit is avoiding providing information to the press. .

We keep informing readers.
