The EU will cover 80 percent of a 415,000 USD budget for a project to develop trade unions for industrial workers in Vietnam.

The remainder of the funding will come from Friedrich-Ebert-Stiftung Vietnam (FES), according to a cooperative agreement signed between FES and the Vietnam General Confederation of Labour (VGCL) in Hanoi on January 29.
The project will begin next month and continue for 36 month.-VNA
