(HBO) - The National Target Programme on New-Style Rural Building has given Luong Son a facelift. The district now is a district of prosperity and peace, with each local village and hamlet being a green, clean, beautiful countryside. The changes even surprise locals returning home after sometime being away.

The Tan Vinh agro-forestry-irrigation co-operative in Tan Vinh commune invests in greenhouses with drip watering system.

The rate of poor household decreased from 13.03 percent in 2010 to 2.92 percent in 2019. Between 2011 and 2019, the average income of the local rural area increased from 7.5 million VND (324.23 USD) per person to 38 million VND (1,642 USD) per person, while the rate of trained rural workers went up from 27.3 percent to 63.3 percent. In a decade, the district mobilised more than 3.1 trillion VND for new-style rural building, of which about 10.2 percent were donated by locals.

Luong Son also recorded progress in terms of political apparatus. Officials have become closer to the people, while the people have come up with better ideas in production. Economic models have worked practically and sustainably, with enterprises focusing on investment in agriculture and creating jobs for local. Cultural and spiritual activities have thrived, attracting the community’s participation in various emulation campaigns.

Recently, a central working delegation came to examine the district, saying it has all the conditions needed to be recognised as a new-style rural area of 2019./.
