Long Dai Hamlet now has many new, spacious houses. People actively participate in planting and taking care of ornamental flowers in front of their houses and along traffic routes, contributing to the green - clean - beautiful appearance of Long Duc commune's new rural area, striving to achieve the model new rural area standards in terms of environmental landscape in 2024.
Comrade Le Quoc Nam, Chairman of Long Duc Commune People's Committee, said: Since being recognized as an advanced NTM commune and a model NTM commune, the Party Committee, government and people of Long Duc have always strived to maintain and improve the quality of 19/19 criteria for advanced NTM communes, general criteria of model NTM communes and criteria for selecting modelsof education . The commune has also developed a plan and assigned specific tasks to continue improving the quality of model NTM communes in 2023 and implementing additional model criteria on the environment, striving to achieve the model NTM standards on environmental landscape in 2024.
Going around Long Duc commune with me, comrade Thach Thi Khonc Thi, a civil servant of Long Duc commune's Culture - Society, chatted happily:
- Don't look too far, compared to a few years ago, the face of Long Duc countryside has now changed and developed clearly.
- The roads in Vinh Hoi, Vinh Yen, Long Dai, Rach Beo hamlets... have been paved with asphalt, very convenient for travel and trading of goods.
- The new house was built with investment by the locals; in front of the house there is a fence, trees, ornamental flowers... beautiful and cool.
Secretary of the Party Cell and Head of the People's Committee of Long Dai Hamlet, comrade Tran Thi Diem Thuy said: Responding to the implementation of the advanced rural construction, the model rural area, the people here are very unanimous. Most of the people who have houses along the traffic route have been planting ornamental plants, flowers, planting trees as fences... to beautify their houses, village roads and alleys. Responding to the model rural construction in terms of environmental landscape, many households in Long Dai Hamlet have also taken the lead in maintaining environmental hygiene, classifying household waste, such as the households of Ms. Le Thi Thanh Hang, Tran Thi Thuy Oanh, Le Thi Kieu Han...
Up to now, through the assessment results in 2023, the whole commune has 5,339/5,454 households recognized and re-recognized as NTM cultural families, reaching 97.89%. Long Duc is currently continuing to maintain and improve the quality of 05 model NTM hamlets: Vinh Yen, Vinh Hung, Long Tri, Vinh Hoi, Cong Thien Hung (according to Decision No. 3734/QD-UBND, dated September 22, 2022 of Tra Vinh City People's Committee); 07 hamlets meeting NTM hamlet standards: Rach Beo, Kinh Lon, Hue Sanh, Long Dai, Sa Binh, Phu Hoa, Hoa Huu (according to Decision No. 5552/QD-UBND, dated December 30, 2022 of Tra Vinh City People's Committee).
Starting to build a model new-style rural commune in terms of environmental landscape, through review, the commune has basically achieved 02/04 criteria. Specifically, for the criterion: having a specialized tree-planting route or a combination of trees, ornamental plants, and flowers but with one main type, ensuring brightness, green - clean - beautiful, outstanding, the commune has built the 30/4 route with specialized planting of tamarind trees, 4,400m long, ensuring brightness, green - clean - beautiful. The route has also been recognized as a civilized urban street (Decision No. 1610/QD-UBND, dated May 2, 2019 of the People's Committee of Tra Vinh city on recognizing civilized urban streets in Tra Vinh city). For the criterion: having a model for classifying, collecting and treating household waste and a model for recycling organic waste and agricultural by-products, the commune also self-assessed that it basically met.
Since June 2023, Long Duc has organized and deployed to all cadres, party members and local people the classification of solid waste at the source generated from households. This movement has been well responded to and implemented by the people in the commune. The whole commune currently has 2,717/5,250 households with 02 trash bins to classify inorganic and organic waste, reaching 51.7%. The commune Youth Union has a model of "Sorting waste at source" in Long Dai hamlet, with 34 households participating. The commune Veterans Association has an "Environmental Club" model in 12/12 hamlets with 625 members. The commune Women's Union actively responded to the implementation with the model of "Women's Club self-classifying and treating waste at households", "Women's Club limiting the use of plastic bags and disposable plastic products", "Club turning plastic waste into money"...
The commune has also built a model of recycling organic waste into compost with 258 participating households, the amount of compost processed is about 180 tons/year; 1 model of recycling agricultural by-products from coconut fiber in Cong Thien Hung hamlet with 7 participating members. The above 2 models are currently effective.
Regarding the two criteria on the rate of domestic solid waste and non-hazardous solid waste in the area collected and treated according to regulations; green land for public use in rural residential areas, the Party Committee and People of Long Duc commune are determined to implement and strive to achieve the standards of a model new-style rural commune in terms of environmental landscape by 2024.
