For nearly 10 years, the "New Rural Area Beautification Sunday" movement has been regularly implemented in Quat Xa village, Cam Nghia commune, Cam Lo district on the last Sunday of each month, attracting the participation of a large number of villagers.
According to Luong Cong Duy, Party Secretary and Head of Quat Xa village: “Rural beautification and participation in building new rural areas have become regular activities for the people of Quat Xa village. Every last Sunday of the month, people proactively arrange their family affairs to participate with the village in beautifying village roads and alleys, planting and caring for flowerbeds along the roads, and cleaning the environment...”
In addition, associations and organizations in the village also register for rural beautification activities on anniversaries and holidays. The spread of the movement has also helped each villager raise awareness about rural beautification, thereby contributing to building a new rural area. Many households have proactively cleaned and beautified their gardens, houses, and entrances, making them green, clean, and beautiful.
Notably, the "Quang Tri joins forces to build new rural areas" movement has fostered a spirit of competition among villages in the area. This has fostered a sense of self-reliance among the people, encouraging them to contribute and work together to gradually transform rural areas into livable places.
The implementation of the "Quang Tri joins hands to build new rural areas" movement has also become a key and regular task for all levels and sectors in the province. The Chairwoman of the Provincial Women's Union, Tran Thi Thanh Ha, stated: "In implementing the campaign 'Building families with 5 no's and 3 clean's' in conjunction with the 'Quang Tri women join hands to build new rural areas' movement, we have directed all levels of the Women's Union to continue undertaking tasks to participate in building new rural areas in their localities, selecting units to build model "5 yes's and 3 clean's" pilot projects."
Simultaneously, they directly implemented and coordinated many activities such as collaborating with the Department of Natural Resources and Environment to organize the competition "Quang Tri Women Acting Together to Protect the Environment and Build New Rural Areas"; organizing communication and distributing 1,200 energy-saving LED light bulbs to 300 disadvantaged women members and poor households in Gio My commune (Gio Linh district).

Relevant departments, agencies, and businesses operating in the province have integrated programs and projects to disseminate information, promote awareness, and implement practical support activities for disadvantaged communes in building New Rural Areas.
Many localities have organized launching ceremonies for the New Rural Development movement, linked with rural beautification and emulation and reward programs. Some localities have issued policies to reward welfare projects for communes, villages, and model gardens that meet standards, such as Vinh Linh and Cam Lo districts.
