The commune has five poorest hamlets which are Mat, Bau Cau, Ba Ra, Chi Ngoai, and Suoi Kho. Those five hamlets account for 40 percent of the whole commune's population. In order to create a driving force for economic development and create momentum for poverty reduction in those disadvantaged hamlets, the Party Committee and administration of the commune have mobilised resources to invest in the development of rural transport infrastructure. Most roads to the five hamlets have been upgraded, facilitating transport, with only the road from Bau Cau village to Ba Ra still under construction, with a total investment of 13 billion VND.

Residents in these areas mainly rely on agriculture, animal husbandry and afforestation for living. The local authorities have combined policies on supporting ethnic minority areas, the district's poverty reduction projects and preferential credit programmes to develop local production. In addition, annually, the commune's Community Learning Center cooperates with the provincial Center for Vocational Training and Support to open vocational training classes to provide farmers with knowledge on growing citrus fruit trees and tea. Many poor and near-poor households also receive support in the form of fertilizers and seedlings.

According to local authority, Suoi Kho hamlet is the poorest hamlet in the commune at present, with a household poverty rate of 1.27 percent. Thanks to the support in loans and seedlings, many households have escaped poverty.

Nguyen Khac Thanh, Chairman of the communal People's Committee said in the coming time the communal Party Committee and administration will raise the awareness of local people on self reliance, and provide training courses for local people on application of science and technology in farming. The commune aims to provide local farmers with high-yield, high-quality plant and animal varieties that are suitable for each area's climatic and soil conditions./.
