(HBO) – In this year's rainy season, the travel by residents in Lac Luong commune is much more convenient. There are no longer muddy roads, as they have been asphalted and concreted. In late March, villagers were delighted and proud to receive a certificate recognising the commune as meeting new-style rural standards. Earlier, other particularly difficult rural areas of Yen Thuy district such as Huu Loi and Bao Hieu were also recognised as fulfilling new-style rural building criteria. By now, three out of the five extremely difficult communes in the district have completed this work.
New-style rural
building has contributed to creating a green, clean and beautiful landscape for
Yen Tri commune (Yen Thuy).

Rural Area Building, Yen Thuy district has invested resources in upgrading its
roads. To date, 100% of the district, communal and inter-commune roads have
been asphalted and concreted; and 89% of the main roads of villages and hamlets
and 71% of their alleys concreted and cemented.
Along with infrastructure, social welfare activities in the
district have received due attention. The work of building communes in

effectively. Currently, the whole district has all the 11 communes and township
that meet the national standards of health, with the rate of people
participating in health insurance reaching 95%. Regarding the building of
cultural life, the percentage of families of culture accounts for 88%, and that

eight out of the district’s 10 communes have been recognised as meeting
