commune saw 770 households winning the title for three consecutive years. Of
the number, 55 families were honoured with prizes and eight out of the nine
residential areas recognised as civilised villages.
The development of the
civilised families building has given a facelift to Phong Phu commune’s rural
areas, and material and spiritual lives of the local people were improved. The
annual per capita income in the commune hit 34.2 million VND. Local people
comply with guideline, policies and regulations of the Party and State, while
