Thien Long commune which strives to meet the new rural standards in 2021, has achieved 9/19 criteria. It failed to meet the criteria related to electricity, schools, information and communication, residential housing, income, the percentage of poor households, culture, environment and food safety, political system and law. Those criteria are being urgently implemented by communes and districts. In addition to infrastructure works being built, Thien Long commune continues to promote propaganda and mobilize people to work together to implement criteria of traffic, residential housing, environment and food hygene and safety.

Tan Van commune which strives to meet the advanced rural development standards in 2021 achieved 9/14 criteria.

Speaking at the meeting, Mr. Chairman of the Provincial People’s Committee praised and recognized the efforts of Binh Gia district and Thien Long commune in implementing the plan of new rural areas in 2021.

Regarding the future tasks, he requested: Binh Gia district needs to highly focus on directing the plan of new rural areas in the last months of the year; improving the quality of the criteria in communes which have reached the new rural standards; paying great attention to the implementation of advanced rural communes and exemplary residential areas; highly focusing on directing Thien Long and Tan Van communes to meet the standards; appraising and evaluating criteria objectively, especially those related to income, poor households, etc.

For Thien Long commune, it is necessary to continue promote the propaganda and take advantage of local people’s strength to implement the criteria of traffic, residential housing, environment, and food safety; focus on developing and improving the economic efficiency of commercial forest models.
