Practical work

(Baonghean) -Every Monday morning, an activity that has become a tradition in agencies, organizations and units in Cua Lo Town is to organize a flag-saluting ceremony, sing the national anthem; at the end of Monday afternoon, organize a general cleaning, plant trees, and prune branches for a green - clean - beautiful - civilized environment.

The Standing Committee of the City Party Committee issued Regulation 25 and Official Dispatch 242, which were implemented quite seriously by cadres and party members, such as not smoking or drinking alcohol at noon and during working hours. 87 individuals in various positions in agencies were selected to build advanced models of "Studying and following the moral example of Ho Chi Minh". Each collective improved their working methods and manners in a practical and effective direction.

Currently, party cells have innovated their activities in a practical direction, increased thematic activities, and overcome formalism. For example, in block 5 party cell, Thu Thuy ward Party Committee has included Directive 03 in the main content of activities, and each month also chooses a topic for activities, such as environmental sanitation; neighborhood security; economic development; religious work...

Studying and following Uncle Ho, the "one-stop" center of Cua Lo Town creates conditions for quick and convenient administrative procedures for businesses and people. Cadres, party members, and workers of the Town Water Supply Company practice water saving in production, increase responsibility for work, reduce water loss from 29% to 15%; organize unpaid work on Saturdays to serve the people. Also from Regulation 25, currently in Cua Lo Town, each locality, agency, and unit has built a "savings box" and every month cadres and party members participate in contributing to help and support poor and disadvantaged households.

In Nghi Hai Ward, each cadre and civil servant contributes 20,000 VND per month and has helped 3 locations in difficulty with over 3 million VND; cadres and civil servants of the Town Party Committee deduct from their monthly salary 50,000 VND/person to build a Children's Support Fund; each cadre of the Fatherland Front and the Town Red Cross saves 50,000 VND/month to help Nguyen Thi Ngan, 83 years old, disabled and homeless in Block 3, Nghi Tan Ward; the Town Women's Union mobilized its members to contribute over 42 million VND to support the construction of a house for Nguyen Thi Lien in Nghi Hai Ward...
