After 20 years of establishment, despite many achievements in socio-economic development, Hau Giang still has a poverty rate of 3.49% by the end of 2023, equivalent to more than 7,000 households. Therefore, since September 2023, the province has launched and called on organizations and individuals inside and outside the province to support the construction of Great Unity houses for policy households, meritorious people, poor households, near-poor households, and households with difficult housing circumstances in the province and has so far completed 1,400 houses worth 70 billion VND.
Speaking at the ceremony, President Vo Van Thuong expressed his joy at attending this meaningful event; at the same time, he congratulated the families who received the "Dai Doan Ket" houses on this occasion as a gift of "Party's will and people's love", welcoming the new year in a new house with the hope of a better life in the future.
Recalling the country's difficulties through two struggles for national liberation and reunification, the President shared that some localities and regions have made important contributions to the revolution, but are now facing many difficulties. The President stated that since the Doi Moi process in 1986, our country has achieved many great achievements of historical significance, so that the country has never had the foundation, potential, position and international prestige as it does today.
The President emphasized that in the common achievements of the Renovation, the Party and State always attach importance to the people, taking the people as the root and center of all policies and future planning; attaching importance to progress and social justice in every step and development policy. Thanks to that, from a poor country, our country has now become a developing country, a bright spot in realizing the United Nations' millennium goals and is steadily moving forward to realize the United Nations' sustainable development goals by 2030.
The President highly appreciated Hau Giang province after 20 years of establishment from 2004 to present and always paying attention to social security, taking care of the poor, people with meritorious services, and disadvantaged households. Thanks to that, the poverty rate has decreased sharply from 30% in 2004 to present; at the same time, resources have been mobilized to build a large number of charity houses, gratitude houses, and "Great Unity" houses in the area. "That proud achievement has a very important contribution from the Vietnam Fatherland Front, socio-political organizations, businesses and philanthropists", said the President.
In the spirit of joining hands to not leave anyone behind, recognizing Hau Giang's achievements, the President also suggested that in the coming time, in addition to building new houses for disadvantaged households, the province should also pay attention to repairing and upgrading charity houses and gratitude houses that were previously built and donated but due to the impact of time, weak ground, floods, etc., they may be affected.
