Based on the proposal of the Ethnic Committee, the Department of Planning and Investment submitted to the Provincial People's Committee a detailed plan for allocating capital for Program 135 in 2019 as follows: the first phase of capital allocation is 130.4 billion VND; the next phase of capital allocation is 5.1 billion VND.
However, this amount of funding has not been allocated because the People's Committees of Tan Ky and Yen Thanh districts have not submitted sufficient documents for projects expected to start construction in 2019 as prescribed.
In recent years, from the investment capital of Program 135/CP, communes and villages under the 135 program have invested in building welfare works and supporting production, bringing high efficiency. The lives of ethnic minorities in this particularly difficult area have gradually improved.
