(HBO) - Recently, the movement of turning waste collection areas and weed paths into "flowering sections" have been actively implemented by the Women's Union of Mai Chau district.


Over the past few years, in order to promote the role of staff and women members in protecting environment and building the green- clean- beautiful scenes, the District Women's Union has launched a campaign "Every woman member planted a flower". The first model was implemented from January 2018, until now, the whole district had 13/23 communes and towns implementing the campaign.

On these days, the 730- meter road leading from National Highway 15 into Na Sai village, Chieng Chau commune is like wearing a new more brilliant coat by being prominent between two rice fields with a colorful road in a variety of flower species, such as butterfly wings, white flowers, violet flowers, etc. These are all flowers with good vitality, easy to grow, easy to care, and they can bloom all around the year and in accordance with the cultural identity of the site. Many groups and women's unions activities have been flexible, creative and supported by local committees, local authorities and enthusiastic participation of local people, such as they plant flowers at the sections where they often waste garbage, causing bad appearance and environmental pollution.

Ms Ha Thi Yen – the Chairwoman of Chieng Chau Commune Women's Union said: "Right after the district Women's Union launched the movement" Every woman member planted a tree", Chieng Chau Commune Women's Union quickly deployed to each branch, each members of the whole commune and received the active response of most members participating. Some contributed their efforts, some contributed their money to purchase flower seedlings, etc., so far, the commune has built two long "flowering roads" in Na Sai hamlet and Lac village, while in other hamlets, women have planted around their houses and around the area of the cultural houses of the village."
