PV: Can you tell us some plans that Thanh Hoa province will implement to complete the set goals?

Ms. Pham Thi Thanh Thuy: Immediately after the conference to evaluate the progress of housing construction for poor households and policy households held in March 2025, the Steering Committee for implementing the campaign accelerated the progress of the campaign; strengthened the steering committee; continued to review and synthesize to allocate to households to build houses.

Thanh Hoa Provincial Steering Committee has allocated more than 11 billion VND to support 9 districts: Thach Thanh, Nhu Xuan, Thuong Xuan, Lang Chanh, Ba Thuoc, Quan Son, Quan Hoa, Muong Lat, Nhu Thanh to build houses for 301 households belonging to "intermixed households" of the Project "Arrangement and stabilization of residents in areas at high risk of flash floods, landslides. However, currently, the disbursement is facing many difficulties as reported by localities. Therefore, in order to effectively and promptly use the CVĐ's funding, the Provincial Steering Committee proposes that the Provincial Party Standing Committee unify the policy of transferring the allocated funding to support the above 9 districts, to ensure the progress and objectives of the Program "eliminating temporary and dilapidated houses" in the province.

At the same time, direct the timely allocation of funding sources to the subjects to implement the house construction. In mid-March, the construction of houses was started and inaugurated, and handed over to households that had received support to build houses before.

The budget for building nearly 13,000 houses for poor households and policy households in this period will be very large. So what specific mobilization measures have the Fatherland Front and its member organizations chosen to implement?

The Fatherland Front and its member organizations continue to strictly implement the spirit of determination, urgency, flexibility, and creativity in thinking and doing, practicality, efficiency, and clarity of people and work to continue calling on and mobilizing organizations, businesses, philanthropists, cadres, party members, civil servants, public employees, union members, association members, and people of all walks of life to join hands, contribute, and accompany local Party committees and authorities in implementing the Movement.

Coordinate with the Steering Committee, the Standing Committees of districts, towns and cities to urgently allocate the funding source allocated by the Steering Committee; the funding source mobilized by the District Steering Committee is ensured to be timely, to the right subjects and in accordance with the law. At the same time, the lowland districts urgently transfer the remaining funding source to the Provincial Steering Committee to allocate to the mountainous districts to implement the construction of houses for households to ensure the early completion of the set goals and plans.

The Fatherland Front and its member organizations continue to promote the role of the business community, Thanh Hoa children studying and living in other provinces and abroad, religious dignitaries and officials, outstanding individuals, all levels, sectors, organizations, and armed forces to actively support funds and working days to build houses for poor households, near-poor households, families of martyrs' relatives, policy households, and households with housing difficulties in the province. Direct the development of plans, arrange and mobilize local forces and means to participate in the second peak period to contribute to the construction of houses for poor households in the province, especially in mountainous districts, ensuring rationality, efficiency, and quality.

What solutions are applied to overcome these difficulties and shortcomings in eliminating temporary and dilapidated houses, madam?

The Provincial Steering Committee identified that the elimination of temporary and dilapidated houses is an important political task. Therefore, from the beginning of the year, the provincial leaders urged localities and relevant sectors to focus on implementing solutions to eliminate temporary and dilapidated houses with high determination, great efforts, and drastic actions. At the same time, the implementation must be focused, key, and thorough; clearly assigning people, tasks, and timeframes, along with evaluating the results. The Provincial Steering Committee issued a Plan to implement the Campaign, assigning tasks to relevant localities and sectors, synthesizing and basically resolving obstacles; approving and urging the commencement of all qualified projects. In particular, the province requested localities to urgently review and classify cases with remaining land-related problems, promptly supporting people to complete legal procedures to be granted land use right certificates.

Along with that, we also regularly organize meetings to review the situation and evaluate the implementation progress; establish working groups to inspect and remove difficulties and obstacles in each locality so as not to delay or leave any backlog in any locality.

Thank you very much!
