War invalids losing at least 81 percent of working capability, along with resistance war veterans who were contaminated with chemical toxics and lost 81 percent or more of work capability will also receive gifts of the same value.
There is also another kind of gifts with a value of VND 300,000 each, to be presented to war invalids or war veterans losing 80 percent or less of their work capability.
