Program to eliminate temporary and dilapidated houses in Buon Don district: Contributing resources, determined to complete

Veteran Le Duc Chinh (Ea Pri village, Ea Wer commune) is one of the first households in Buon Don district to enjoy the joy of returning to his new home. The small but warm house, filled with camaraderie, was connected by the District Veterans Association and mobilized by Binh Nam Vocational Education Center (Ho Chi Minh City) to provide financial support, helping the 71-year-old veteran, who is now single, to lessen his worries every time there is a storm.

Chairman of the Buon Don District Veterans Association Nguyen Cao Duong said that in response to the program of joining hands to eliminate temporary and dilapidated houses launched by the Vietnam Fatherland Front Committee of the district, the District Veterans Association reviewed members with difficult circumstances, called for and mobilized businesses to support 40 million VND. The District Veterans Association contributed an additional 5 million VND, coordinated with the District Military Command to mobilize more than 60 working days to build a house, helping comrade Le Duc Chinh have a warm house filled with comradeship and team spirit.

Joining hands with the Veterans Association, Buon Don District Youth Union, Krong Na Commune Youth Union also coordinated to start building a Charity House for Ms. H'Nga Ksor (Ea Mar Hamlet, Krong Na Commune). The cost of building the house is about 80 million VND, of which Ms. H'Nga Ksor's family will receive 50 million VND. The house will help her family settle down. The meaningful gift and the community's heart will give her more motivation, help her family work with peace of mind, develop the economy, and escape poverty.

Meanwhile, as one of the enterprises with business units in the area, with its responsibility, Dak Lak 2-9 Import-Export Company Limited also supported 160 million VND, contributing more resources to Buon Don district, which still has many difficulties, to have more conditions to implement the program.

According to statistics, in Buon Don district, there are currently 710 households with difficult housing conditions. Of these, 6 households are policy families and meritorious people; 323 are poor and near-poor households in the Program to eliminate temporary and dilapidated houses and 381 households are in the National Target Program for Socio-economic Development of Ethnic Minorities and Mountainous Areas. Mr. Y Si That Ksor, Vice Chairman of Buon Don District People's Committee, said that the district is determined to complete the housing support program for all these groups by 2025. In addition to supporting funding according to regulations, to improve the quality of the project and provide additional funding for beneficiary families, the locality is also mobilizing all resources, calling on businesses inside and outside the locality, officials, civil servants, and armed forces to join hands, following the motto "whoever has something to contribute, whoever has merits to contribute, whoever has property to contribute, whoever has a lot to contribute a lot, whoever has little to contribute a little". The District People's Committee has also coordinated with the Vietnam Fatherland Front Committee of the district to launch a movement to join hands in eliminating temporary and dilapidated houses in the district, raising 1.25 billion VND to support the Fund for the Poor to implement the program.

Officials and civil servants of Buon Don district contributed and supported funding for the program to eliminate temporary and dilapidated houses in the district.

In addition, the District People's Committee issued Plan No. 12 on accelerating the implementation of eliminating temporary and dilapidated houses in the district by 2025, establishing a Steering Committee for eliminating temporary and dilapidated houses, and resolutely directing localities to implement construction work, with specific and clear timelines. Accordingly, from now until the end of June 2025, we strive to complete 80% of the number of houses; by September 15, we will complete 100% of the number of houses and by September 30, we will complete, accept, and hand over 100% of the number of houses for use.

“To ensure the progress and quality of construction works, and to avoid loss, waste, corruption and negativity, the District People's Committee directs departments, offices and localities to strengthen coordination, promote a sense of responsibility, closely monitor the progress of the program implementation, and consider this one of the important political tasks of all levels, sectors and localities,” Vice Chairman of the People's Committee of Buon Don District, Y Si That Ksor, emphasized.
