Sending young intellectuals to volunteer to work in areas with many socio-economic difficulties is a major policy of the State to increase resources for localities, contribute to economic, cultural and social development, strengthen national defense and security, and improve people's knowledge in key areas, remote and border areas. The pilot project "Selection of 600 excellent young intellectuals with university degrees to work as vice chairmen of commune People's Committees in 62 poor districts" has achieved encouraging results.
