(Baonghean.vn) - On April 22, Nam Hung commune (Nam Dan) held a ceremony to receive the certificate of recognition as a commune meeting National New Rural Standards and celebrate the 50th anniversary of the commune's establishment.

Attending the ceremony were comrade Dinh Viet Hong - Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee and representatives of the Coordination Office of the National Target Program on New Rural Construction.

Established in April 1967, from a poor mountainous commune, with difficult transportation, large area, unsynchronized infrastructure, and limited educational level, Nam Hung quickly absorbed scientific and technical applications in production, livestock breeding, and forestry; diversifying income sources.

During the 50-year journey, the spirit of solidarity, unanimity, diligence and creativity of many generations of people here have "transformed" the poor land into villages and fertile, lush fields.

After 5 years of mobilizing the entire political system, with the consensus of the people to build the New Rural Area, the lives of the people in the mountainous commune of Nam Hung have been significantly improved.
