congress. They will encourage local trade union members and workers to join
efforts to meet the targets set for the year.

anniversary and all-level Party congresses for the 2020-2025 tenure.
Over recent years, the Farmers' Union of Mai Chau district has implemented numerous specific programmes and activities to support its members in developing products under the One Commune One (OCOP) programme.
