(Baonghean.vn) - In addition to promoting production and business, completing phase 2 investment items, Song Lam Cement Joint Stock Company (The Vissai Cement Group) actively supports localities where the unit is located in building new rural areas.

Every day, people in the hamlets of Nam Thinh, Bac Thinh, Hai Thinh, Quyet Tam, Chua hamlet, Moi hamlet... of Nghi Thiet commune (Nghi Loc) can travel on flat, spacious concrete roads, truly "fulfilling their wishes". Now, those who come here for the first time can hardly imagine that a few years ago, the roads here were full of potholes and rough rocks.

That change, thanks to the efforts of the neighbors in the construction of the new countryside, but also thanks to the very important help of Song Lam Cement Joint Stock Company - the unit with the Nghi Thiet Cement Grinding Station and Seaport in the area. From 2016 to now, Song Lam Cement Joint Stock Company has supported Nghi Thiet commune to build over 6 km of concrete roads 3-6 meters wide and 15-20 cm thick.

These solidly built concrete roads cost nearly 8 billion VND. Of which, the very important road section from D4 road passing through Moi hamlet connecting with many other hamlets has created a convenient connection for thousands of households in the commune. The road section is 1km long, 6m wide, 20cm thick concrete with a drainage system on both sides, with a total investment value of more than 4.5 billion VND.

To build this road, Cement Joint Stock Company leveled the mountain with thousands of cubic meters of earth and rock, built a solid embankment, ensuring the sustainability of the project. In addition, the Company also supported over 1,000 tons of cement to build welfare works in the area; supported the purchase of equipment and construction of a multi-purpose building for Nguyen Duy Trinh High School, worth 9.91 billion VND. Currently, Cement Joint Stock Company is supporting Nghi Thiet commune to build a breakwater embankment for boat parking areas for Nam Thinh and Bac Thinh hamlets, with an investment value of over 2 billion VND.

Through the discussion, Mr. Le Dang Nguyen - Vice Chairman of Nghi Thiet Commune People's Committee added: With the coastal area facing many difficulties in terms of terrain and low income of the people, the support of Song Lam Cement Joint Stock Company is very valuable. Up to now, the Company has supported Nghi Thiet commune to build civil and welfare works in the area with a value of nearly 20 billion VND. Every year, on holidays, Song Lam Cement Joint Stock Company also spends billions of VND to visit and give gifts to poor households, and participate in social security activities.

At the same time, a number of local businesses have donated tens of billions of VND to the commune to promote new rural construction. To date, Nghi Thiet has achieved 15/19 criteria for new rural construction. Currently, the commune is focusing on completing the remaining 4 criteria to meet new rural standards in 2020, including: Traffic criteria, cultural and medical facilities, and building a political system and access to law.

According to Mr. Le Dang Nguyen, the support of Song Lam Cement Joint Stock Company and other enterprises has created an important driving force for the Party Committee, government and people of the commune to confidently complete the criteria for building new rural areas. Local people have contributed more than 6 billion VND to build rural traffic. Currently, hamlets are actively mobilizing people to continue to contribute to the construction of a closed concrete traffic system for the entire hamlet, upgrading hamlet cultural houses, purchasing and supplementing cultural facilities; planting trees and flowers along the roads, ensuring environmental sanitation...
