residents in Quang Minh commune, the northern mountainous province of Yen
Bai’s Van Yen district, at the great national solidarity festival.
On the occasion, Quang Minh received the certificate recognising a new-style
rural commune.
Addressing the event, Ngan underlined difficulties and obstacles facing the
country in the year, including impacts posed by the COVID-19 pandemic and natural
disasters.
She highlighted great value and strength of the solidarity spirit among people
in the face of difficulties and challenges, affirming that the strength of the
great national unity bloc has always been one of the most important resources
for the entire Party, army and people to overcome all difficulties,
contributing to successfully implementing the national renewal and development cause.
With determination and efforts of the whole political system, the solidarity
and unanimity of the people and enterprises, Vietnam has achieved respectable
results in the year, she said.
The top legislator expressed her delight at breakthrough socio-economic development
of Yen Bai.
She praised Quang Minh commune for its achievements in new-style rural area
building when it met all 19 criteria in
order to receive the title of new-style rural commune.
NA Chairwoman Ngan spoke highly of the commune
authorities’ efforts in improving the material and spiritual life of locals,
with the rate of poor households dropping to 4.63 percent.
She urged the Fatherland Front and organisations of Quang Minh commune in
particular, and Van Yen district and Yen Bai province in general to strengthen
solidarity, promoting the spirit of competition and creativity among the people,
as well as striving to achieve the title of advanced new-style rural commune in
the future.
She expressed her hope that Yen Bai
will have more communes and districts recognised as new-style rural areas in
the time to come.
Yen Bai, which is home to a number of ethnic minority groups, has 70 out of 150
communes recognised as new-style
rural areas, and two out of nine districts completing the target in 2019.
Meanwhile,
50 percent of communes in Van Yen district have so far met the criteria to
receive the title of new-style rural communes./.
