(Baonghean.vn) - Overcoming many difficulties, the Party Committee and government, the Fatherland Front, and socio-political organizations in Dien Chau have focused on propaganda and implemented many solutions, creating a common consensus to develop the new rural construction movement widely throughout the district.
Get into the fight
Right from the beginning of the implementation, the District Steering Committee for New Rural Construction selected 3 communes: Dien Thap, Dien Hong, Dien Phong as pilot communes for new rural construction in the 2011-2015 period.
In Dien Hong commune, at first, some commune government officials were inexperienced and confused in implementation, but with careful approach, Dien Hong reached the finish line early. The criteria were highly appreciated for their quality as well as sustainability...
With the motto of people knowing, people doing, people checking and supervising, Dien Hong promotes internal resources, mobilizes local budgets, contributions from people and businesses, seeks support from superiors, launches patriotic emulation movements, builds new rural areas; including the movement of donating land and construction works for the traffic system.
The completion of the new rural area of 3 pilot communes as planned with changes in life, the appearance of the countryside is prosperous and spacious, creating a strong ripple effect in the localities. As a result, by the end of 2015, the district has 13 communes recognized as new rural communes. From the results of the implementation in 13 communes, the Steering Committee for New Rural Area Construction of the district organized to draw experience in the direction work.
In the mountainous commune of Dien Lam, constructionnew rural areasThis can be considered a miracle. From a purely agricultural commune with the most difficulties in the district, Dien Lam has risen strongly to reach the finish line in 2016 and by 2021, it is one of the first two communes in Dien Chau district to achieve the status of an advanced new rural commune.
With the motto and criteria of doing easy things first, difficult things later.

There are many touching stories in mobilizing people to participate in building new rural areas in Dien Chau that have been recorded. For example, donating and contributing land to build roads and public works seems not easy in this time of "every inch of land is gold" but has been responded by many people in the countryside.
The family of parishioner Chu Van Lam, Trung Thanh hamlet, Dien Hong commune is a typical example. The house is located next to the inter-village road. According to the local new rural construction planning, the road will pass through Mr. Lam's family garden. Many crops and land are affected, but Mr. Lam is willing to sacrifice personal interests to ensure the expansion of a more open traffic route, serving the interests of the community.
Innovation to build sustainable new countryside

From the sources of support for new rural construction as well as the Farmers Support Fund, Dien Chau has invested in 3 successful floating shrimp farming models. Mr. Nguyen Viet Thang, owner of a shrimp pond in Dien Trung commune, said that traditional shrimp farming only reached 10 tons/ha, but now applying technology has increased it to 60 tons/ha, bringing in billions of dong in income each year.
