On June 24, Chairman of the Vietnam Fatherland Front Committee (VFF) of Quang Tri province Dao Manh Hung said that the program to eliminate temporary and dilapidated houses and support housing for people with meritorious services in the locality has been completed. To achieve this result, it is thanks to the close attention from the Central Government, the great support of ministries, branches, armed forces and enterprises, along with the strong participation of the entire political system and consensus from the people.
Up to now, the whole province has newly built and repaired 2,374 houses for people with revolutionary contributions and martyrs' relatives; 7,486 houses for poor and near-poor households, reaching 141.5% of the plan. Of which, 100% of supported households have started construction of new houses, over 80% of the project is completed and put into use, to be completed before June 30, 2025, two months ahead of schedule.
Not only the impressive numbers, the success of the program is also a clear demonstration of the spirit of great national unity, the spirit of mutual love and determination to care for the lives of people of the Party, government and the Fatherland Front at all levels. Nearly VND450 billion, accounting for 87% of total resources, was mobilized through socialization from major donors such as the Ministry of National Defense, the Ministry of Public Security, Viettel Group, Vietnam Energy Industry Group, commercial banks, businesses, philanthropists, etc.
In each village, the community spirit is strongly promoted: people help each other transport materials, contribute working days, and support construction. The Vietnam Fatherland Front Committees at all levels have closely coordinated in reviewing and verifying the correct beneficiaries, supervising the process of starting construction, accepting and handing over houses. Inspection work was organized in 47 rounds, focusing on disadvantaged areas to ensure quality and progress.
Standing Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, Chairman of the Provincial People's Council Nguyen Dang Quang emphasized that the success of the program is the result of strong political will, unified leadership, transparent supervision, and above all, the people's trust in the Party and the State.
After eliminating temporary and dilapidated houses, Mr. Nguyen Dang Quang requested departments, branches and sectors according to their functions and tasks to study and advise competent authorities to issue policies to support vocational training, create jobs, borrow policy credit, access healthcare, education... to help people escape poverty sustainably. For households that have been supported to eliminate temporary and dilapidated houses, they must proactively continue to make efforts to maintain and repair them so that their houses are increasingly durable and beautiful.
