Many women who lost their jobs in the past 12 months to the Covid-19 pandemic have been turning to food delivery to earn a living.
Ngan Nguyen Thanh, 42, has been a food delivery person for almost a year since she lost her job at a HCMC restaurant in February 2020.
She waits with several other delivery people at the crossroads of Nguyen Thi Minh Khai and Mac Dinh Chi near the numerous cafeterias and restaurants there for an order to pop up on her phone.
