million VND in 2011, and this was brought to 26 million VND last year. The rate
of poor households was reduced to 10.7 percent and that of near-poor
households, 14.2 percent. Up to 86.5 percent of local households were
recognised as cultural families and all the six hamlets in the commune
certified as cultural villages. All schools in the commune have met national
standards. Health insurance coverage in the locality was 95.3 percent, and
92.9% of the total households had access to clean water.
Dong Phong aims to maintain and improve the
quality of the 19 criteria during the 2018-2020 period. The locality will
invest more in rural socio-economic infrastructure, promote production, improve
material and spiritual life of local people and ensure sustainable development.

Committee presented a welfare facility valued at 450 million VND to Dong Phong
commune.
