The campaigns have been intensified across
all spheres, including building the cultural life, economic development, and
poverty reduction. Meanwhile, the Government’s investment and locals’ support
have helped the commune achieve practical outcomes in new-style rural building.
Muong Chieng has scattered population density
and uneven intellectual levels. It has successfully used communications
campaigns to mobilise the people’s resources in new-style rural building, with
locals donating land, trees, and working days.
By the end of 2019, the commune met all 19
criteria of the new-style rural area, with its per capital income reaching 32
million VND (1,373 USD), up nearly 10 million VND from 2018. To date, all local
residents have access to clean water and electricity, while the rate of trained
rural workers that secure stable jobs hit 91 percent.
As a result of economic restructuring and
income increase, the local husbandry sector have developed significantly. For
example, Xa Van Tuyen and Ha Van Hiep in Chieng Cang with their model of
raising pigs each earned 120 million VND per year, while Bui Van Thuong, who
raise buffalos reeled in over 100 million VND annually. Therefore, the rate of
poor households in Muong Chieng dropped to under 12 percent last year from 22.4
percent in 2018.
The commune also posted progresses in
education, health, culture, security-defence, and Party building./.

The air is thick with the hum of drills and the clatter of machinery as the Hoa Binh – Moc Chau expressway takes shape amid the rugged terrain. Welding sparks illuminate the faces of workers, and concrete mixers churn relentlessly, laying fresh pavement on the newly-carved road.
