Implementing the emulation movement "Joining hands to eliminate temporary and dilapidated houses nationwide in 2025", Ca Mau province has issued documents and synchronously implemented the Project to eliminate temporary and dilapidated houses with a determined, urgent and effective spirit.

On November 12, 2024, Ca Mau province held the Launching Ceremony of the Program to Eliminate Temporary and Dilapidated Houses in Hamlet 10, Tri Phai Commune, Thoi Binh District. On June 17, 2025, Ca Mau province happily held the inauguration ceremony and handed over the last house out of a total of 4,400 houses of the project.

After about 8 months of implementation, the whole province of Ca Mau has completed 4,400 houses (3,463 new houses, 937 houses repaired), nearly 3 months ahead of schedule, with a total implementation cost of 235 billion 890 million VND.

Speaking at the Conference, Secretary of the Ca Mau Provincial Party Committee Nguyen Ho Hai emphasized that the implementation of eliminating temporary and dilapidated houses in the economic conditions of Ca Mau province still has many difficulties while implementing the apparatus arrangement and implementing a two-level government, but the Program is not delayed or interrupted.

This shows the strong and synchronous leadership and direction from all levels of government, the close coordination of departments, branches, sectors and localities; clear assignment of responsibilities to each unit and locality in performing tasks and, most of all, the consensus of the people.

“Through this program, we see that eliminating temporary and dilapidated houses is not only a social security goal, but also a manifestation of profound humanity, of the Party and State's care and concern for people with many difficulties and disadvantages in society,” the Secretary of the Ca Mau Provincial Party Committee stated.

Following the success of the Program to eliminate temporary and dilapidated houses; on this occasion, Ca Mau province launched a project to support livelihoods for households with meritorious services to the revolution, poor households, near-poor households, and ethnic minority households in need of livelihood support in the province, aiming at the goal of settling down, finding a job, and sustainable development.

Accordingly, livelihood support is not about giving fish, but about giving fishing rods, so that each person can become the subject of economic development and change their own lives.

Mr. Nguyen Ho Hai suggested that localities continue to review and have appropriate support policies for households in difficult circumstances who need housing support but are not eligible for support under the Project to eliminate temporary and dilapidated houses in the province.

At the same time, Ca Mau province supported the livelihoods of 90 families of revolutionary contributors in difficult circumstances (support level of 10 million VND in cash/household; 10 households in each district and city) and awarded 180 scholarships to 180 students from poor and near-poor households with good or excellent academic performance in the 2024-2025 school year (payment level of 2 million VND in cash/scholarship; 20 students in each district and city).

On this occasion, the Chairman of the People's Committee of Ca Mau province awarded certificates of merit to 9 groups that provided funding for the province to build houses; 47 groups and 117 individuals with outstanding achievements, making practical and effective contributions to the Program to eliminate temporary and dilapidated houses in the province.
