 The road connecting two residential clusters in Doan Ket 1 hamlet, Quang Tien Commune (Hoa Binh city) is concreted and widened.


 

Nguyen Thi Lan, head of the committee for the front work of Doan Ket 1 hamlet, attributed the result to efforts of the local Party organisation and authorities in calling on residents to donate land for building roads.

Eight families in the hamlet donated a total of nearly 1,544 sq.m of garden and rice land serving the construction of rural roads and bridges. A culture house has been built with a total investment of 1 billion VND (over 39,280 USD), 30% of which was contributed by local households. The project will be completed and put into operation in late 2024.

Nguyen Cuong Bien, Vice Chairman of the People's Committee of Quang Tien commune, said not only Doan Ket 1 hamlet but many other residential areas such as Mon, Quyet Tien, and Doan Ket 2, also pay attention to promoting the movement of building cultural life in connection with the new-style rural area building programme.

Currently, 100% of the residential areas in the commune have culture houses. The commune is planning to construct three culture houses in Me, Doan Ket 1, and Doan Ket 2 hamlets. The commune is home to 1,400 Muong ethnic minority households, accounting for 98% of its total population. With efforts from the local Party organisation, administration, and people, the commune was recognised as a new-style rural commune in 2021, and it is moving towards an advanced new-style rural area in the time to come.

People always comply well with the Party's policies and the State's laws. The rate of cultural households is 85.6% of the total. It set a target to increase per capita income to 68 million VND in 2024, up 10 million VND compared to 2023.
