The movement of the whole people joining hands to build new rural areas in the area has been directed by Nam Dan district in a methodical, drastic and creative manner. The results of the New Rural Construction program in Nam Dan have been high, reaching an average of 17.13 criteria/commune. Up to this point, the whole district has 10/22 communes reaching the new rural finish line, reaching more than 45%.There are 8 communes about to reach the finish line and no commune has less than 10 criteria.

In the process of building new rural areas, the district has diversified resources. In 5 years, the whole district mobilized nearly 1,239 billion VND, of which the commune-level budget reached an average of 7.3 billion VND/commune.

Comrade Tran Kim Loc - Chief of Office of the Provincial People's Council said that the income criteria through economic models in many localities are not clear.

In addition to the results achieved, some members of the monitoring team also analyzed and clarified many issues related to ensuring the sustainability of new rural criteria in the area. Specifically, the construction of rural economic models and changing the form of production organization to develop the economy in some areas is not sustainable.

In addition, some localities only focus on building transport infrastructure and cultural facilities but have not paid attention to building rural landscapes. Awareness of protecting and maintaining rural environment and food hygiene and safety is not high.

Currently, there are still cases of officials and party members violating family planning policies, gambling... These are issues that affect the sustainability of the criteria of the political and social organization system and security and order...

In particular, the debt situation in new rural areas is still high, with more than 56 billion VND.

Concluding the meeting, Comrade Hoang Viet Duong - Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Council requested the district to pay attention to maintaining and improving the achieved criteria. Strive to build Nam Dan into a national new rural district.

He also suggested that the district should review the criteria in communes that have not yet achieved new rural standards, and identify difficult criteria to focus on directing implementation. It is necessary to review resources; not impose pressure on people's mobilization; limit long-term debt, which affects the direction of implementing socio-economic development tasks in the locality.
