good health, Chinh stated the Party, State and people always remember the
contributions and sacrifices of families with meritorious services to the
national revolution and pay attention to caring for them.
Touring a 1.3-ha social housing project invested
by the Sao Vang real estate joint stock company in Quynh Lam ward in Hoa Binh
city, Chinh spoke highly of efforts by the investor for the implementation of
the 738-billion-VND project. Beginning in December, 2020, the building is
expected to finish in February this year.

in accessing credit sources and stabilising their lives./.
In the spirit of "Party members go first, the people follow”, all households of Party members in the Doan Ket sub-region in Da Bac town, Da Bac district, voluntarily removed gates and fences, and donated land when the road expansion project passed through their properties. Inspired by their example, 68 households in the sub-region quickly followed suit, contributing over 1,400 sq.m of residential and perennial cropland to widen the main road through the residential area. The exemplary role of Party members in Doan Ket stands as a shining example of studying and following President Ho Chi Minh’s thought, morality, and lifestyle.
