(HBO) – More than six years after moving to their new place, nearly 40 households in the resettlement area of Suoi Ke - Doi Ke in Mit villafe, Tu Ly commune of Da Bac district have gradually settled down.


Ly Van Huan's family in Mit village, Tu Ly commune of Da Bac district has gradually settled down after more than six years of living in Suoi Ke resettlement area.

 

"In the past, when I was living in Nhom village, Dong Ruong commune, my family’s life was extremely precarious, because it was an area at risk of landslides and flash floods in the rainy season. In 2012, with the encouragement and support of the Party and State as well as local authorities and people, we moved to settle in the new area. Since then, our material and spiritual lives have been getting better and better. Without having to worry about flooding destroying our crops and house, we feel relieved and motivated to develop production and take care of our family,” said Ly Van Huan.

 Huan’s family is one of the many households that have increased their income in the resettlement areas. Dinh Ngoc Thai's family with the income of over 24 million VND per year, and the family of Quach Cong Thuan with over 60 million VND per year from pig breeding are other examples. Since their moving in the new place, the new-comers’ life has improved day by day. The entire residential area has been under planning, and the main road leading to the commune concreted. Locals have accessed to clean water, telecommunication service, and improved infrastructure works.

 Ly Van Huong, head of Mit village in Tu Ly commune said that the new residence is spacious but lacks production land. Meanwhile, during the process of moving to the settlement area, the compensation has yet to be completed, therefore, many households suffer a shortage of capital to develop their production. However, locals in Doi Ke have strived persistently to overcome difficulties. With the attention and support of the province and local authorities, they have work hard to improve their incomes. Some household have focused on animal husbandry and farming, while others have developed carpentry or joined locally-based companies and enterprises. Compared to the time they start residing in the locality, their average per capita income have increased from 9 million VND per year to over 19 million VND curretly./.
