Locals in Boi Ca stage a musical performance at the 2020 great national solidarity festival.

The locals have been encouraged to join a campaign on the conduction of new-style rural building activities every Saturday. So far this year, local households have donated 520 working days to build 0.9km of rural roads and upgrade the commune’s cultural house, giving the area a facelift.

Boi Ca residents have also seen their living standards significantly improved thanks to their new development orientations that focus on agricultural services and transport and establishment of local teams of construction workers and carpenters. In 2020, the local per capita income is estimated at 40.5 million VND (1,750 USD), up 5.5 million VND from last year. The number of poor households dropped by 16 from last year to only 4, or 1.1 percent of the local population.

Civilised lifestyle, meanwhile, has been promoted, with locals adhering to the residential area’s regulations on the organisation of wedding ceremonies, funerals, and communal festivals. Each household has access to sanitised water sources; no one dumps garbage at public places; and prostitution and gambling have been eradicated from the area. In 2020, the area, having 80.9 percent of households recognised as civilised families, was accredited as civilised site.
