The amount of money will be allocated to all the communes across the country to help them construct roads, provide clean water, improve the quality of the environment and build culture houses.

Under the programme, a zoning plan for 70 percent of communes and a master plan for the 2011-2015 period to develop new rural areas at district and provincial levels is expected to be finished by the end of this year.

The programme will also concentrate on training staff involved in the programme, restructure the economy, and renew forms of production.
