(HBO) – A working delegation led by Director and Chief of the Central Coordination Office on New Rural Development Nguyen Minh Tien made a trip to Lac Thuy district to inspect its performance in meeting criteria to be recognised as a new-style rural area for 2020. Attending a working session with the delegation were Vice Chairman of the provincial People’s Committee Dinh Cong Su and officials of Lac Thuy as well as local departments and agencies.

 

The delegation and provincial and district officials inspect a model garden in Doi village, Ba Hang Doi township.

After a decade of implementing the new-style rural area building programme, all eight communes in the district were recognised as new-style rural areas, meeting all nine criteria for the status in accordance with the Prime Minister’s Decision No.558/QD-TTg dated April 5, 2016.

So far, Lac Thuy district has undergone a major face lift with fair economic growth and higher local income. Relic sites and fine cultural traditions have been maintained while the quality of education, health care and the environment has improved. Public security and social order has been ensured, giving local residents better material and spiritual lives.

 


During the 2011-2020 period, Lac Thuy had amassed over 7.765 trillion VND for new rural area development, over 175.7 billion VND of which was from the State budget, more than 678.2 billion VND from local budget, over 1.77 trillion VND from related programmes and projects, over 3.96 trillion VND from credit, more than 355 billion VND from businesses and 814.5 billion VND from the public. The district recorded no debt for basic construction in the effort. Capital was allocated to projects in line with regulations.

 

 


The delegation inspected nearly 20 residential areas, production models in value chains, production-trade facilities, One Commune, One Product products, infrastructure in communes, and reviewed the district’s dossier seeking new rural-style area status. They spoke highly of the district's achievements, which demonstrated local authorities’ attention and consensus of local residents in the regard.

 

Notably, the income in the district was higher and the rate of poor households was lower compared to the average figures in the northern mountainous region. The district is home to many outstanding and high-value agricultural production models.

 


The delegate assessed that the district’s report had basically provided sufficient information and data as requested, but asked the district to add comparison between current data and those at the starting point to make it achievements more outstanding. About resource mobilisation, the district was required to review public involvement and pay attention to improving housing, environment quality and rural landscape.

 

 


Based on inspection results, the delegation reached consensus in allowing the district to finalise the dossier to submit to the central verification council for consideration./.
