(HBO) – Visiting Phu Nghia in Lac Thuy district this August, we have seen the place getting more vibrant with colours of flags, banners, and slogans.
At the relic of a money printing factory, which was
accredited as a national relic site by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and
Tourism in 2007.
During the years of the resistance war against
the French colonists, after receiving the general uprising order on the night
of August 22, 1945, a large number of soldiers and people in Co Nghia commune
(now Phu Nghia commune) and the people of Lac Thuy district stood up to regain
power. The commune's revolutionary administration was quickly established,
leading the people to fight and protect their villages.
In March 1946, the Government decided to move a
money printing factory of the revolution to Co Nghia commune. It was placed at
the plantation of the patriotic bourgeois Do Dinh Thien, and was completely
protected during the years of resistance.
At the end of 2010, the State awarded the army
and people of the commune the title of "Hero of the People's Armed Forces"
in the resistance war against the French colonialists.
As peace returned, Phu Nghia has been given a
facelift with high-storey houses, and vast green tea fields and fruit orchards.
In the first half of 2022, the community’s total
production value was estimated at 308.2 billion VND (13.15 million USD),
fulfilling 57.4% of the yearly plan and up 3.96% year on year. The local
cultural, social, educational, medical, security-defence activities have been
constantly improved, while its social security, hunger eradication and poverty
alleviation have been given more attention.
Duong Xuan Hung, Chairman of the Phu Nghia
People's Committee, said that by the end of 2021, its per capita income
surpassed 52 million VND, and poverty rate decreased by over 2%. The commune
maintained and improved 19 criteria for advanced new-style rural areas./.

After the historic victory on April 30, 1975, which liberated the South and reunified the country, the whole Vietnam embarked on a new mission — promoting peace and reconstructing the nation with century-defining projects. On the fierce Da River, over 30,000 engineers, sappers, and construction workers battled against rocky mountains and raging floods to achieve a remarkable feat. The Hoa Binh Hydropower Plant, the largest of its kind in Southeast Asia at that time, officially began generating electricity, lighting up the North and ushering in a new era of industrialisation.
