(Baonghean) -Ban Moi, Thanh Son commune (Anh Son) is a highland village, 30 km west of Anh Son district center. The village has 142 households and 643 people, 100% of whom are Thai people..

Although it is called Ban Moi, the people here do not remember exactly when the village was established. They only know that in the past, the village was poor and the people often kept the nomadic habit, and did not settle down to cultivate, so life was very difficult.

Before 2000, the poverty rate in the village was always high (80-90%), and the children of the ethnic minorities often only studied until primary school and then dropped out. There was a son of the village who persistently went to each family to persuade them to stop migrating to burn fields for farming, and to change their way of living and working. That was the village chief Mac Tien Quang. He is 65 years old this year, and was the Party Secretary and Chairman of the People's Committee of Thanh Son commune for many years. After retiring in Moi village, he was elected by the people as the village chief and the village party cell secretary.




Faced with the poverty of the villagers, he was very concerned. Realizing that 168 hectares of natural land had not been fully exploited for production, he held a village meeting to discuss with the villagers to re-plan the production land area. With the abandoned forest area, he mobilized the villagers to cover the bare hills with hybrid acacia and meter trees, and converted the alluvial land to grow sugarcane as raw materials. His family pioneered in applying science and technology to grow 2 hectares of sugarcane and 5 hectares of hybrid acacia. Sugarcane and acacia have brought the family an income of 50-60 million VND/year.

Not only helping the people develop the economy, he also cares for the cultural life of the people, regularly going to each house to advocate the elimination of bad customs in weddings, funerals, maintaining brocade weaving; propagating to families not to have a third child to take good care of their children's education, not letting them drop out of school. In recent years, the village has no more children dropping out of school. Comrade Lo Anh Hong - Deputy Secretary of the Party Committee of Thanh Son commune said: "Chief of the village Mac Tien Quang is a person of high prestige and responsibility towards the people, he is very admired by everyone!".
