As locals play a significant part in the implementation of the programme, the commune has earned the new-style rural status by the end of 2019, with per capita income increasing to 32.5 million VND and the poverty rate brought to 4.6 percent.
Rural roads in Na Phon commune, Mai Chau
district, are upgraded to reach new-style rural standards
and meet local travel demand.
The commune has mobilised a total of nearly 71.84 billion VND in funding for the new-style rural programme, 18.63 billion VND of which was sourced from people. The fund has been invested in building roads and developing infrastructure and production.
With the motto "the State and people do it together”, the commune has allocated over 24 billion VND for road projects. Thanks to that, its network of inter-commune and inter-village roads has been concreted to facilitate travel and economic production.
Keeping in mind that economic development and income improvement are the two key tasks, the commune has taken advantage of new-style rural funding, the World Bank’s financial assistance and State budget to expand production. It has applied advanced technology, shifted to farming of more sustainable crops and animals, and studied the market. Thanks to such efforts, local income has improved.
In addition, the commune has continued accelerating support for scaling up effective business models, for example safe vegetable production and husbandry, and community-based tourism.
To keep up the good work, the commune plans to boost investment in rural infrastructure and production. It will develop agriculture in tandem with tourism, services and trade; preserve cultural identity; build green and clean environment; and strengthen the political system at the grassroot level./.
