However, with the characteristics of a border province, with a large number of ethnic minorities, especially the Khmer ethnic group (accounting for 1/3 of the province's population), the majority of people work in agriculture, are often affected by natural disasters, drought and salinity, so people's lives still face many difficulties, the number of poor and near-poor households in the province is still high. Through statistical review, Soc Trang province currently has 15,139 poor households and 26,242 near-poor households (accounting for 12.4% of the total number of households in the province, mainly in border areas, areas with a large Khmer ethnic group); in particular, there are 6,972 households with especially difficult housing circumstances that need attention and support to stabilize their lives, while the province's local resources are still very limited.
