The communal People’s Committee has promoted communication work, and encouraged
locals to shift to high-economic farming, including cultivating plants for
high-quality seeds in an area of 36.5 hectares which bring a revenue of 4.4
billion VND (190,000 USD) annually, and developing bee swarms to 1,900, among
others.
Van Nghia commune also splashed out nearly 30 billion VND upgrading rural
infrastructure, including concretising 5.3 kilometres of rural roads, repairing
six dams and lakes, consolidating 6.4 kilometres of canals and irrigational

schools, and 3.7 billion VND building a standardised medical station to meet
healthcare demand of the local people.
According to Chairman of the communal People’s Committee Bui Van Chung, the
policies are all practical to help ethnic residents stabilise their lives and
