The district’s campaign "All people unite to build a cultural life” is different from others as it is associated with the local emulation movement on new-style rural building. So that, the district has paid particular heed to build and improve the quality of commune-based cultural and sport centres.

So far, 15 out of 19 communes, or 78.9 percent, in the district have a cultural centre, of which investment came from the State budget and private sectors. All 146 villages and sub-areas have a cultural house and spaces for sport activities. Thanks to such facilities, all 184 public art troupes in the district have a venue to practice, contributing to improving the cultural life of the locals.

The cultural residential area campaign has had a profound positive impact on social life and contributed to maintaining social order and stability and fostering economic and cultural development.

The cultural residential quarters have also made concerted efforts, by donating money, materials and labour, to construct roads and cultural houses.

Particularly, the local Women's Unions, Youth Unions, Veterans' Associations have together planted flowers and trees on the sides of roads and managed the roads well to make the local landscape more attactive, cleaner and greener.

Such efforts have given a facelift to rural residential areas in Luong Son.

In November, the district sucessfully organised the Great National Unity Festivals at all residential areas to mark the 89th founding anniversary of the Vietnam Fatherland Front (November 18). On the occasion, the district presented 12 charity houses to poor people and honour 1,145 individuals and organisations in recognition of their outstanding contribution to the emulation movement on new-style rural building./.
