New style rural areas
Building new style rural areas must be coupled with eliminating poverty, improving people’s supervision and mastery role, and promoting production.
President Truong Tan Sang made the statement during his working visit to inspect the building of new rural areas, economic performance and poverty reduction in Bac Quang, Quang Binh and Xin Man districts, northern Ha Giang province, on January 26.
He said the building of new style rural areas is a big policy of the Party and the State, that needs to be carried out with efficiency.
Ha Giang is experimentally growing rubber plants on 1,000 ha in Bang Lang commune, Quang Binh district, as part of its efforts to help ethnic minority people-inhabited areas develop wealthily.
The province has invested in building electricity facilities, schools and healthcare centre in Xin Man district, which achieved a GDP growth of 13 percent last year.
On the occasion, President Sang presented 100 gift parcels, 100 blankets and 20 buffalos to poor households and wished them a happy New Year.
