Preserving identity
Mr. Thai Hoang Vu - Chairman of Bac Tra My District People's Committee said that, implementing the Resolution of the Third Congress - 2019, in recent times, Bac Tra My has focused on caring for and improving the lives of people in ethnic minority areas in the area.
Typically, in current cultural preservation, all ethnic minority villages have gong teams. Every month, activities on the walking street in the town are carried out by ethnic minorities from each commune to preserve and promote unique cultural values.
“All villages have been and are being invested in cultural houses with designs that are typical of ethnic minority areas, combined with disaster prevention functions.
“New schools have been invested in, and the transportation system to the villages is guaranteed. People’s lives have been improved, specifically demonstrated by the fact that the poverty rate in ethnic minority areas has decreased by more than 10% each year,” said Mr. Vu.
The 4th Congress of Ethnic Minorities in Bac Tra My District in 2024 is an opportunity for the district to look back and listen to the opinions of the people representing their compatriots, thereby making further investments to develop the ethnic minority region.
In recent times, many ethnic minority households have strived to escape poverty and develop their household economy, but there are still some who are still waiting for investment from the State. This is a barrier to development, the reason why the poverty rate of ethnic minority households in the district is still high compared to the poverty rate of the whole Bac Tra My district.
Recognizing this limitation, Bac Tra My will have effective solutions to overcome it. In implementing investment, the locality prioritizes the implementation of public investment programs and projects in ethnic minority areas, areas frequently affected by natural disasters, storms and floods, and disadvantaged areas; and implements the work of population arrangement according to Resolution No. 23 of the Provincial People's Council.
The district has directed to promote planning and investment in building infrastructure for industrial clusters to call for and attract businesses to operate, focusing on businesses investing in processing agricultural products and medicinal herbs.
From there, it contributes to solving jobs for people, increasing income as well as solving output for agricultural products and medicinal herbs that are being strongly developed by people.
