OVs children having no birth registration go to school
VOV.VN - The Binh Phuoc provincial Department of Education and Training (DoET) will offer free tuition fees, clothes, books and learning facilities to 78 Cambodia-born Vietnamese children who have no birth registration in the 2016-2017 academic year, said Nguyen Van Hung, director of DoET.

Currently, the OVs returning from Cambodia have no land to cultivate and make their living by fishing on Saigon and Be rivers or working for hire. Until now, their children have not been able to go to school as they have no identity papers.
Early in July, Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc asked localities to help Vietnamese people returning home from Tonlé Sap Lake in Cambodia stabilize their lives to enable their children to attend school. Most of these OVs are now living in Tay Ninh, Binh Phuoc and Long An provinces.
