(Baonghean.vn) - Being a difficult border commune in Que Phong district, in recent years, the Party Committee and government of Nam Giai commune have always focused on implementing Uncle Ho's teaching "If people are skillful in mobilizing people, everything will be successful". Thanks to that, the face of the countryside has been increasingly renewed, and people's lives have become more prosperous and fulfilling.

Replicating economic models

The impression when coming to Nam Giai is the vast rice fields, the hills of acacia and cinnamon that attract the eyes. Leading us to visit his family's cinnamon hill of more than 3 hectares, Mr. Ngan Dinh Tuan, 34 years old, in Puc village happily said: Last year, my family exploited 400 cinnamon trees and earned 70-80 million VND, very excited.

Also accompanying, Vice Chairman of Nam Giai Commune People's Committee Lu Thi Tien added: "In addition to acacia and bo bo, Quy cinnamon is identified as one of the high-income livelihood plants in Nam Giai Commune, so the Party Committee, government and the entire political system have actively promoted and mobilized people to grow cinnamon. In which, the families of cadres and party members are required to set an example for people to follow."

Therefore, in Nam Giai, not only village and hamlet cadres but also households of commune cadres have cinnamon gardens. For example, the family of Chairman of Nam Giai Commune People's Committee Lo Minh Tuong has more than 1,000 cinnamon trees, the family of Vice Chairman of the Commune People's Committee Lu Thi Tien has 4,000 trees.

Currently, the whole Nam Giai commune has over 75 hectares of cinnamon with an exploited yield of 3.3 tons; 209 hectares of acacia/5 villages, exploited area of ​​132 hectares; 31 hectares of So trees, yield of 25 quintals/ha; 436 hectares of Bo bo trees...

In addition to focusing on mobilizing people to develop livelihood plants and protect forests with a coverage rate of 83.72%, the commune also directed people to promote the replication of cooperative, family farm, and farm models. Currently, the commune has 1 agricultural service cooperative, 8 farms raising buffaloes and cows with 20 or more heads, 16 local chicken farms, 1 chicken cooperative, 1 black pig farming model with 15 participating households.

Mr. Ngan Van Lam in Puc village has a large chicken farm with a scale of 700-1000 chickens. He said that this year he has sold 4 batches, each time he sells he earns about 70-80 million VND. From input to output, Thanh Tam Agricultural and Service Cooperative guarantees the purchase, the chickens are mainly imported from Kim Son town and neighboring areas.

Through the discussion, the leader of Nam Giai commune said: With the goal of sustainable poverty reduction, in the period (2021 - 2023), the Party Committee and the government have focused on leading and directing the Commune-level Mass Mobilization Bloc to coordinate with departments, branches, and organizations to propagate and mobilize people in the area to participate in building and maintaining the implementation of 30 "Skilled Mass Mobilization" models in all fields.

In the economic sector alone, there are 14 highly effective models. Typically, the model of renovating mixed gardens and growing taro in Pieng Lang village with 45 participating households; the model of conserving and developing aquatic resources (stream fish) in the stream area in the villages throughout the commune; the model of raising local black pigs in Pieng Lang, Puc and Mo villages; the model of growing mixed vegetables in Pong and Pieng Lang villages; the model of growing melons and watermelons in Cha Lau, Mo and Pong villages...

Thanks to that, in just over the past 2 years, Nam Giai commune has reduced 60 poor households, with an average income per capita of 16-17 million VND, achieving the target set by the Resolution of the Commune Party Congress for the 2020-2025 term.

Works and works for the people

As a border commune with 10.5km of border adjacent to Laos, with 488 households, 2,250 people, mainly Thai ethnic group distributed in 5 villages along the Nam Giai River, people's lives are still difficult.

To improve the effectiveness of mass mobilization work, in addition to propaganda to arouse the will to escape poverty and promote internal strength to build new rural areas from the people's strength, in the period of 2021-2023, the Party Committee and the People's Committee of Nam Giai commune actively coordinated with the District Party Committee's Mass Mobilization Committee and units such as the Pu Hoat Nature Reserve Management Board, the District Military Command, Team 5 - National Defense Economic Group 4, and Hanh Dich Border Guard Station to effectively implement the "Skilled Mass Mobilization" models on socio-economic development in the area.

This was demonstrated when we visited Pieng Lang - a border village located at the headwaters of Nam Giai, the resettlement site of Puc and Meo villagers after the historic flash flood in 2007. It was easy to see that the barren land of the past has now flourished with the lush green of corn, taro, cassava, and plowed sticky rice fields...

Mr. Ngan Van Minh - Secretary of Pieng Lang Party Cell happily said: The village has many seedling projects such as the taro model supported by the Que Phong District Party Committee's Mass Mobilization Committee, or seedlings to implement the mixed garden renovation model, build model gardens implemented by Pu Hoat Nature Reserve, thanks to which, the people's lives have gradually changed. Currently, the whole village has 6 - 5 hectares of taro with high economic value, a herd of nearly 230 buffaloes and cows, a herd of 150 pigs, a herd of 30 goats, 2,000 poultry and nearly 2 hectares of fish ponds.

Especially after being selected by the Que Phong District Party Committee's Mass Mobilization Committee in coordination with the local government as a point to build a skillful mass mobilization model of "reforming backward customs, building cultural life and developing the socio-economic situation of residential areas", people have had changes in their thinking and working habits.

For example, in the past, the living conditions of the villagers were still backward, only 37.5% of households had toilets, the rest discharged waste into the environment, livestock barns were still makeshift or free-range, affecting the general environment. Now, 56/56 households in Pieng Lang village have built auxiliary works and solid toilets with a total investment capital of 920 million VND. Of which, the District Party Committee's Mass Mobilization Committee supported 43 million VND, and the people's own capital invested 890 million VND.
