(HBO) – From a poor locality with limited infrastructure, an agriculture-based economy, low per capita income and a high poverty ratio, Dong Lai commune in Hoa Binh’s Tan Lac district has witnessed considerable progress after nine years of implementing the National Target Programme on New-Style Rural Area Building. So far, the commune has completed all 19 criteria of the programme, while living conditions of local residents have significantly improved.
The Central Culture House of Dong Lai commune has been built to meet
the criteria of a new-style rural area and the demands of local residents and
officials.
So far, the commune has mobilized
over 51 billion VND (2.19 million USD) for the programme, of which 10.5 billion
VND was contributed by local residents in the form of cash, work, land and
other assets.
Local infrastructure has been
upgraded, while the socio-economic situation in the commune has improved. Currently,
62 percent of inter-field and 55 percent of inter-village roads have been paved,
and all households have access to clean water, while schools in the locality
have been standardized.
A new culture house of the
commune has been built, along with culture houses in every village. Up to 96
percent of locals have joined health insurance.
The improved infrastructure has
created favourable conditions for locals to develop their economic conditions
and reduce the poverty ratio. Many households have switched cultivation strategy
from rice to other crops with higher value.
The commune now has 75 hectares
of lemongrass and more than 200 hectares of citrus trees. The per capita income
among locals has risen to 32.3 million per year from 21 million VND in 2011,
while the poor household ratio has reduced to 11.3 percent.
Bui Van Su, Chairman of the Dong
Lai People’s Committee, said that during the implementation of the programme,
the commune has received donations of 42,400 sq.m of land from more than 1,000
households.
He attributed the result to the
transparent and democratic way the programme has been implemented. Local
residents have become major contributors to the construction of infrastructure
that directly benefit them, he said, stressing the pioneering role of local
officials and Party members./.
