Inheriting the tradition of older generations and promoting the
revolutionary spirit in the "Doi moi" (Renewal) period, the Party
Organisation and people of Trung Thanh commune have striven to overcome
difficulties and build an increasingly innovative homeland. The average growth
rate of production value in 2015 - 2020 reached 4.86 percent, slightly higher
than the set target of 4.7 percent per year and its economic restructuring was
in the right direction in the period.
In addition to focusing on economic development, attention has been paid to
other fields including culture, communications and sports. Positive changes
have been recognised in the movement of all people to unite to build a cultural
life associated with new-style rural building.
Eighty-five percent of villages, agencies and schools met cultural standards by
the end of last year. Social security and sustainable poverty reduction were
implemented in a timely and effective manner.
The commune has organised training courses on science and technology transfer
for 119 learners, basically creating jobs for over 250 workers over the past
five years. All poor and near-poor households get loans from the Vietnam Bank
for Social Policy.
The revolutionary base has now got a new appearance with solid houses built
with the smell of new paint. People actively take part in emulation movements
aiming at raising labour productivity, effectively exploit and promote
strengths in forestry and fisheries to increase their incomes.
Up to now, the commune has fulfilled 12 out of 19 criteria for new-style rural
building; 98 percent of local households have access to the national grid and
all hamlets have cultural houses to serve the community’s common activities.
Social security and order have been ensured.
Dinh Ngoc Bay, Secretary of the Party Committee of Trung Thanh commune, said
that despite facing many difficulties, under the direction of the Party and
State, and the support of administrations at all levels and sectors, the
commune's authorities and people have made great efforts in many fields over
the past five years.
As many as 14 out of 17 targets set by the congress’s resolution have been
achieved or even exceeded. Cultural institutions have been upgrade while
infrastructure has gradually been completed. The per capita income reaches 18
million VND (784 USD) per year. This year, implementing the One Commune One
Product (OCOP) programme, the commune directed Nam Phuong Cooperative to speed
up the recognition of Shan Tuyet tea as a OCOP product. It will also submit
dossiers for Trung Thuong hamlet for consideration as the new-style rural area
at the same time./.
