The passengers included Vietnamese workers with expired contracts, and others in extremely disadvantaged circumstances.
The Vietnamese Embassy in Brunei sent its staff to the airport to assist them with boarding procedures.
In-flight safety and preventive measures against the COVID-19 pandemic were rigorously enforced to protect the passengers’ health and prevent the spread of the disease.
Upon arrival at the Cam Ranh international airport in the central province of Khanh Hoa, all the passengers and crew members received medical check-ups and were sent to quarantine in line with regulations.
The repatriation of Vietnamese citizens in disadvantaged circumstances abroad will continue to be conducted in line with their wishes, the developments of the COVID-19 pandemic, and quarantine capacity in Vietnam./.
