Located in the Northwest of the country, Lao Cai has a border of about 182 km. The border area is home to many ethnic minorities whose lives are still difficult. With their hearts and enthusiasm always directed towards the border area, Lao Cai youth have recently had many meaningful activities at the border of the country.
In the dense fog of Y Ty (Bat Xat) in March, the March border program with the theme "My Fatherland's Border" organized by the Provincial Youth Union, the Vietnam Youth Union in coordination with units and sponsors brought many meaningful activities, such as giving gifts to prestigious people, giving 15 tons of cement and 20 million VND to the People's Committee of Y Ty commune to build and harden rural roads; giving 2 tons of rice, 30 gifts to people of Y Ty commune; giving 100 sets of uniforms, 10 scholarships to students in difficult circumstances in the area; giving 50 boxes of candy to children in Sim San village; giving 1 TV to Y Ty Border Guard Station and 8 gifts to adopted children of Y Ty Border Guard Station.
The program also included many projects and tasks such as free haircuts for students and residents, and helping households in Sim San village pour concrete on inter-family roads. The total value of the program was about 300 million VND.
As a relative of a soldier working at A Mu Sung Border Post, upon receiving the attention, encouragement, and gifts from the Provincial Youth Union, the Vietnam Youth Union of the province, and other agencies and units, Mr. Ly Gio Luy could not hide his emotions: My family thanks the gifts from the Youth Union at all levels and the agencies and units. The family will encourage him to work with peace of mind!

The program also supported 30 solar bulbs worth 30 million VND to build the project "Lighting up the countryside road" in Na Mang village, Ta Gia Khau commune, contributing to building a bright - green - clean - beautiful - civilized - safe road.
