VOV.VN - National Assembly Chairman Tran Thanh Man has called for efforts to remove bottlenecks in Vietnam’s ethnic policy system, warning that overlapping regulations, fragmented implementation, and administrative inefficiencies are affecting the effectiveness of programs for ethnic minority and mountainous areas.

VOV.VN - Vietnam is accelerating efforts to reduce the development gap between ethnic minority and mountainous regions and the country’s more developed urban and lowland areas, as the government pushes forward a long-term strategy focused on infrastructure, education and sustainable economic growth.

Funding for national target programmes is gradually reaching communities, helping people, particularly in rural, mountainous and ethnic minority areas, expand production, improve incomes and strengthen market linkages.

Lung Cu commune in Tuyen Quang province has chosen tourism as its leading economic sector, not only capitalising on local strengths but also as a natural path to create jobs, support sustainable poverty reduction, and enhance living standards in Vietnam’s northernmost region.

VOV.VN - After more than a year of implementation, Vietnam has largely completed its nationwide programme to eliminate temporary and dilapidated housing, finishing five years and four months ahead of schedule.

VOV.VN - The National Assembly on December 11 approved a resolution to implement a national target programme for new-style rural development, sustainable poverty reduction, and socio-economic development in ethnic minority and mountainous areas for the period 2026–2035.

Vietnam has considered sustainable poverty reduction a consistent and long-term national policy throughout its process of renewal and development towards socialism.

VOV.VN - As part of its commitment to the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, Vietnam has pledged to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), including the goal of ending poverty in all its forms everywhere.

VOV.VN - Over the past 80 years of national construction and development, through historic upheavals, Vietnam has risen to become a country of growing strength, deep international integration, and an increasingly recognised role and reputation on the global stage.

VOV.VN - Vietnam has basically completed the goal of eradicating temporary and dilapidated houses nationwide, finishing 5 years and 4 months earlier than planned under a Party Resolution, according to a report presented at a national review conference in Hanoi on August 26.
