Step by step growth

75 years ago, on December 30, 1949, in the revolutionary base area of ​​Bac Tra My, Tak Kot Party Cell was established with 9 party members, with comrade Ho Truyen as Secretary.

The establishment of Tak Kot Party Cell (present-day Tra Kot Commune Party Committee) was of great significance, encouraging the spirit, will, and revolutionary movement of local cadres, people, and compatriots. Through many hardships and sacrifices, the revolutionary movement grew stronger and stronger, contributing to the cause of liberating the homeland.

Mr. Duong Lai - former Chairman of Tra Kot Commune People's Committee recalled that during the difficult war, people here were hungry, lacked clothes, and were often robbed, so life was extremely miserable.

Since the establishment of the Party Cell, the people have trusted and followed the Party's leadership, determined to gain peace and independence. Among them, a number of struggles of the people of Tra Kot commune strongly encouraged the spirit and ignited the revolutionary fighting spirit of the people of Tra My at that time.

Mr. Lai said: “The Party cell was established to lead the government and all classes of people to increase production, cultivation, and livestock raising. Implementing the policy of the superiors, each cadre and party member set an example in propaganda work, mobilizing young people to join the army, mobilizing all classes of people to participate in frontline labor, transporting goods to serve the revolution, contributing food and provisions to the army and supporting the southern battlefield.

Despite the sacrifices, the revolutionary will of the Party members and the people was not dampened, waiting for the final victory. After liberation, the Party, government and people united to build the homeland, gradually eliminating illiteracy and hunger. Up to now, people's lives have improved much more than before.

Through each period of development, Tra Kot Commune Party Committee currently has 2 village Party cells and 4 agency Party cells, with 134 Party members.

Care for people's lives

With the policy of “Party members go first, the country follows”, the Party Committee and the government of Tra Kot commune have called for the pioneering and exemplary spirit of Party members in building and developing the economy. For example, Mr. Tran Kim Duong (Co ethnic group, village 2, Tra Kot commune), who has been a Party member for 40 years, is still enthusiastically working in production with the spirit of a soldier of Uncle Ho's army.

Mr. Duong said: “Party members must go first and do things first so that the people will trust and follow. During the war, they volunteered to join the revolution and fight to protect every inch of their homeland; now in peacetime, they must produce to end poverty.
