A representative of the farmers’ association of Lac Luong commune (Yen Thuy district) presents aid relief to poor member households at a ceremony in Luong Thanh commune.

Bui Van Vuong in Van hamlet, Lien Son commune (Luong Son district) moved into his new house over a year ago, although sometimes he still thinks that he was dreaming. He had been living in difficulties and his wife was perennially ill, so he could not build a proper house for the family.

In addition to assistance worth 20 million VND (about 870 USD) of all levels of the farmer associations, its commune level one helped him with the construction cost.

The 55-sq.m.-house was completed after more than two months of construction. The total construction cost was nearly 90 million VND, funded primarily by his family members, relatives and the community. Farmers in the commune and hamlet also helped Vuong build the house so that he had a shelter before the rainy season.

Last June, the association in Yen Thuy district handed over a house and financial aid for farmer Bui Van Thiep in Luong Thanh hamlet, Lac Luong commune. The house, 50 sq.m, was built at a cost of 86 million VND funded by staff and members of the farmer association and local organisations.

The campaign to build houses for disadvantaged farmers has been carried out by the associations of farmers at district and city levels. Since the start of the year, construction of seven houses has started with support of between 20-25 million VND for each across the districts of Kim Boi, Yen Thuy, Da Bac and Tan Lac. Two of those Da Bac and Yen Thuy were handed over to farmers.

Furthermore, the province’s farmer association joined hands with the Fatherland Front Committee to build five "great unity” houses for poor families in Lac Son district, with assistance worth 30 million VND for each./.
