Mr. Bui Van Phuong, a militia soldier in Cao Ram Commune (Luong Son), takes care of his family's goats.

In 2002, after graduation, Mr. Phuong found that, the economy would not be improved with the farming on the garden and in the field. With his desire to get rich in the homeland, in 2006, Phuong boldly borrowed a loan to develop livestock growing. However, with limited borrowings and less experience, he failed. His dream of enrichment was unfinished; Mr. Phuong chose to go to work far away to live on. In 2011, Phuong came back and continued to try on livestock development. Seeing that Sang Mountain behind his house had great potential to develop goat rising, Mr. Phuong bought goat breeding for rising. At first, the goats just grazed around the village, but the grazing area is increasingly narrowed, so the goats went to the local people’s garden and destroyed their vegetables. He was so concerned and thoughtful about that. Then, he realized that the valley on the mountain was the ideal pasture for goats. After that, he came up with the idea of ​​building a bridge for the goats to go across the mountain. More than 40 meters of stairs built up made a breakthrough for him to grow goats. Up to now, Mr. Phuong's family has maintained a group of 50 goats. Along with that, he converted 1.5 hectares of paddy rice to turmeric growing, combined with livestock and poultry raising. As a result, every year, except for expenses, the economic model of his family brings in stable income with an average of 150 million VND per year.

"While I was doing, I was learning and actively looking for effective production and business models for learning experiences, especially the models that militiamen have been developing effectively with high economic efficiency, exploiting well the potential and advantages of the local. From that, I could apply to the economic model of my family".Mr. Phuong shared.

Not only doing good economics, Mr. Phuong is also an example of militia soldiers, completing excellent training duties. Every year, he actively participates in trainings, contests, workshops and examinations organized by Commune Military Management Board. His achievements are very impressive with 100% of the courses and the test items to be quite good, as good as shooting, tactics, testing political awareness.
