Thanks to resources mobilised, roads of Tan Tien hamlet in Dong Tam commune, Lac Thuy district, have been concretised and expanded.

The plan sets forth ambitious objectives, aiming to achieve the recognition of six, two, and one additional communes meeting the normal, advanced, and model standards for new-style rural building, respectively. The average new-style rural criteria are set at 16.3 criteria per commune. 

Additionally, the plan calls for the standardisation of over 16 One Commune, One Product (OCOP) items, each achieving a rating of three stars or above. Emphasis will also be placed on completing essential infrastructure projects, meeting the production and living requirements of rural residents for transport, irrigation, electricity, domestic water supply, schools, and health care. Other targets are to improve the quality of life for rural inhabitants and establish multiple production models linked to stable employment for the locals. 

The total capital to be mobilised for the programme implementation this year exceeds 2.9 trillion VND (118.51 million USD). The sum includes 161.706 trillion VND sourced from the central budget, 214.445 trillion VND from provincial and district budgets, and 2 trillion VND worth of credit capital. 

The provincial People's Committee has outlined 11 key tasks and solutions to ensure the effective and quality execution of the programme. Regarding Task Number 11, which focuses on diversifying and efficiently utilising resources, the body has directed localities to proactively allocate a portion of their resources from local budgets to support new-style rural development efforts, with appropriate mechanisms devised to mobilise diverse funding sources beyond the state budget.
