Nuoc Ruong is home to more than 90 Muong ethnic minority households in Nam Thuong commune, Kim Boi district. Located far from the centre of the commune, Nuoc Ruong was once the poorest village in Nam Thuong. However, in recent years, when difficulties in infrastructure were gradually removed, this mountainous area has strongly developed.
Bui Van
Lap, a local in Nuoc Ruong village, Nam Thuong commune of Kim Boi district reminds
his descendants to always show gratitude to the Party and Uncle Ho.
It is a fact that any household has an Uncle
Ho's image hung on a solemn position. Xiem, a villager, said that since ancient
times, people have had a tradition of worshiping ancestors, but he does not know
when locals started hanging photos of Uncle Ho in their houses. He just knows
that this tradition has existed for a long time. From the past when the economy
was still difficult to the present, in every house, Uncle Ho's image has always
been present next to the altar of ancestors.
We visited the family of Bui Van Lap, an elderly
in the village. Lap said: "Without the Party and Uncle Ho, there is no
independence and freedom and our village does not have a good life today. We
hang Uncle Ho’s photos to remind our descendents to keep in their mind the
services of the Party and Uncle Ho, thus working hard to develop the homeland”.
When
he was young, Lap spent six years and 10 months joining the anti-US resistance war.
He was also sent to
Lap
said with a smile: "In the past, there were no electricity, roads, schools
and health stations, so poverty stayed persistently in the village. Now our
life has changed a lot thanks to the Party and Uncle Ho.”
Nam Thuong commune has fulfilled all criteria set
for a new-style rural area. Nuoc Ruong village had the lowest starting point in
the movement. Even though the village is still in the group with lower economic
performance, locals in the mountainous locality are still proud. "Before
the Party and State launched the new-style rural area building campaign, the
road to the village was very small, tough and muddy after rain. Thanks to the implementation
of the programme, locals understood that the new-style rural area building aims
to better their lives, so they have enthusiastically participated in it by
donating land, planting trees and contributing working days. In 2012, Nuoc
Ruong became the third village receiving a certificate of merit from the
provincial People's Committee for outstanding achievements in building
new-style rural area./.
