Ms. Huyen Nga (Ninh Van commune, near Tam Coc Ninh Binh) said: “I have been doing this stone grinding job for 5 years, earning 400,000 VND/day. This stone making job is also difficult and dusty, so I have to wear a mask.

Wear a hat… and take the opportunity to go to work early to avoid the sun.”

Outside stone processing is at a disadvantage due to hot weather,

the rising temperature causes dry air, and dirt from stone powder also increases significantly compared to normal days. The stone workers were all dirty and sweaty on their faces.
