Son said that over the past years, the Government has worked out various policies for the benefit of preschool teachers. However, he acknowledgedthat their wage remains low compared to the general income and theefforts they make.

The official expressed his hope that small as it is, the increase can serve as anencouragement for the teachers.

The education sector has a very large number of salaried civilservants and public employees, accounting for more than 70% of the country’stotal number, he said. Therefore, each adjustment policy, no matter how small it is, needs tocalculate resources and conditions, the adjustment must be made stepby step and reasonably.
