Flowers offered to beloved Uncle Ho

(Baoquanngai.vn) - As one of the localities with many difficulties, thanks to flexible and creative application in studying and following Uncle Ho, the Party Committee and government of Son Thuy commune (Son Ha) have effectively led and implemented many patriotic emulation movements, contributing to the socio -economic development of the locality.

The fragrance lasts forever

During his lifetime, President Ho Chi Minh once advised: “Every good person, every good deed is a beautiful flower, our whole nation is a beautiful flower forest”. Taking his teachings to heart, on every occasion of his birthday, cadres, party members and people of Son Thuy commune participate in carrying out many practical and meaningful projects and tasks to offer to him.

Secretary of the Son Thuy Commune Party Committee Dinh Van Hoat could not hide his emotion when he called to inform us that a local family had just donated more than 1,000 square meters of land to expand the main campus of Son Thuy Kindergarten. They were Mr. Truong Tien (60 years old) and his wife, Mrs. Nguyen Thi Nga (55 years old), from Lang Rao village. Mr. Tien and his wife are typical examples of the commune in actively participating in the movement to study and follow the ideology, morality and style of Ho Chi Minh. That not only brought excitement to local leaders, but also multiplied many good deeds in the community, contributing to spreading a beautiful lifestyle in society.

As if to better understand the work of Mr. Tien and his wife, we immediately drove our motorbikes to the commune on a summer afternoon. A sudden rainstorm made the mountain and forest scene even more desolate. The scene was sad, but the people, cadres and party members here were all excited by the noble act of Mr. Tien and his wife, when they donated 1,000m2 of land to expand the school. Mr. Tien and his wife deserved to be listed in the "golden book" of the locality.

An area of ​​more than 1,000 square meters of land was donated by Mr. Tien's family to build Son Thuy Kindergarten.

We visited Son Thuy Kindergarten when Mrs. Nga (Mr. Tien’s wife) was also there. At first glance, we felt very sympathetic towards Mrs. Nga, because she was a woman with a kind and gentle face. When she knew we were asking about her family’s work, Mrs. Nga shared very gently.

"I want to do something useful for this land, where my husband and I have been attached for many years, with much affection. I just hope that the children in the commune can have a decent place to study, because the children have suffered too many disadvantages. Of course, land is precious and valuable, but affection is even more precious. I just think that simply," said Mrs. Nga.

Ms. Nga shared that several decades ago, from a poor rural area, she and her husband packed up and went to the highlands to start a business, met each other and chose Son Thuy commune as their permanent settlement. "If husband and wife are in harmony, the East Sea can dry up", the couple worked hard, saved money, and accumulated capital. Life gradually became more stable and prosperous. When they had "food and savings", the couple decided to "buy" more assets. At the time when the price of gold was around a few hundred thousand VND per tael, instead of buying gold to save, the couple put all their efforts into buying a piece of land facing National Highway 24B, next to Son Thuy Kindergarten, one of the prime locations in the locality today.

The new rural construction movement is spreading everywhere, from the province, district to commune, blowing new winds, promoting socio-economic development of localities. However, Son Thuy commune is stuck with some criteria, including theeducation criterion. This is one of the important criteria in implementing the National Target Program on New Rural Construction. Typically, at Son Thuy Kindergarten, the campus is still narrow, not enough to meet the teaching and learning activities for children. However, it is very difficult to untie this knot, because the locality does not have land funds.

So, Mrs. Nga's land was "targeted". Day after day, local leaders and some comrades in the Party Cell and the Village Front came to Mrs. Nga's house to do mass mobilization work. "At first, my husband and I were hesitant because we had gone through so much effort to buy it, it was like a memory of the most difficult days for us. However, the teachings and sayings of Uncle Ho when mentioned by the local people seemed to penetrate deeply into our hearts, that is, we should know how to sacrifice personal interests to serve the common good. Finally, my husband and I nodded in agreement, together went to the commune to sign the land donation agreement. Big things start from small things like that and life will be better when we know how to give," Mrs. Nga confided.

“The main campus of Son Thuy Kindergarten currently has only 4 classrooms, no kitchen and no principal's office. Teaching and learning conditions are difficult and lacking. The school has to temporarily use a classroom as a place for staff and teachers to work and live. On the other hand, the current scale of the school still does not meet all the needs of children in the commune. The school's dream is to soon expand its area, invest, upgrade and meet national standards; to be able to adopt and teach children in the age group of 24 - 36 months, because currently the school only accepts children in the age group of 3 - 5 years. Upon hearing the news of Ms. Nga donating land, all staff, teachers and parents were happy. We would like to express our gratitude for her kindness by doing practical work of "teaching well, studying well", contributing to improving the education of our homeland".

Village Party

We went to Ta Bi village, a particularly difficult village in Son Thuy commune, where more than 44% of the population are poor households. The people here have many good deeds to offer to Uncle Ho. The most typical is the groundbreaking of Lang Pho road (the section connecting to DH12 road) this May. The road is 400m long, with a total investment of about 1.4 billion VND. When completed, it will create favorable travel conditions for dozens of households, connecting trade with the lowlands and neighboring districts.

Secretary of the Party Cell and Head of the Front Work Committee of Ta Bi village, Dinh Van Trun, said that the special feature of the road is that although it is short, it is winding and has many steep slopes. The roadway is just wide enough for motorbikes to move. Therefore, to achieve the standard width, it requires the joint efforts and consensus of the villagers. There are 5 households in the affected area. The case of old man Dinh Van Duoi (73 years old) whose land is located at the very beginning of the road is the most difficult. Without his consent, construction cannot be carried out. A good start makes a good end, the Party Committee and the government have actively visited his house many times to persuade and persuade him, with the motto "slow and steady wins the race".

Gia Duon spent a lot of time pondering, thinking, and struggling with himself to decide whether to donate or not. About 70 square meters of land is not large but not small for a large family with difficult circumstances like his. Most of his children are poor or near-poor households. However, for the common good of the village, he voluntarily donated. When he took the lead, the remaining 4 households also agreed to donate about 70 square meters each. This success recognized the great efforts of Mr. Trun, an exemplary party member in the village.

"In the work of mobilizing land donation for new rural construction, one of the experiences is to creatively apply learning and following Uncle Ho in mass mobilization work. People doing mass mobilization work must "think, see, listen, walk, speak, and do", not "just talk"; must always put themselves in the position of the people to grasp their thoughts and aspirations. If they do not agree after one visit, continue to visit many times. Only when there is no solution can I stop. Luckily, the people in Ta Bi village did not give me the opportunity to give up", Mr. Trun said with a smile.

Studying and following Uncle Ho has truly entered the lives of all classes of people in Son Thuy commune. There are more and more typical examples participating in the movement of donating land to build roads, build schools... That will be a great motivation for the commune to soon reach the new rural finish line in 2024. Flipping through the book containing the full list of households that have donated land in recent years, Mr. Hoat clearly read the statistics from the villages recorded in it, including: Ta Bi village donated land to build 5 roads with a total length of 750m; Ta Ban village donated land to build 2 roads with a total length of 400m; Ta Com village donated land to build 4 roads with a total length of 500m...

“That is the result of the great efforts of the Party Committee, the government, the Fatherland Front and the mass organizations of Son Thuy commune; in which, the most pivotal role is played by the cadres and party members at the commune and village levels. They are party members of the villagers, always closely following the documents and instructions of the superiors; concretizing the study and following of Uncle Ho on mass mobilization work in accordance with the local reality. Many cadres and party members are also pioneers in donating land, setting an example for the people, typically Mr. Trun has donated land twice to build two roads in Ta Bi village”, Mr. Hoat emphasized.

Leaving the highlands when the sky had just cleared, we could never forget the handshakes of the Party Secretary of Son Thuy Commune, Dinh Van Hoat. That was a convincing proof of the solid bridge between the Party's will and the people's hearts. The hearts of the people in the highlands are truly precious. Although their lives are still poor and they lack food and clothing, they are still willing to sacrifice personal interests to join hands and contribute to the cause of educating people and building a rich and beautiful homeland. Uncle Ho once said: "It is easy to endure a hundred times without the people, and difficult to overcome ten thousand times with the people." We believe that the rural face of Son Thuy Commune will be nurtured and changed from the kindness and affection of the people. And that reputation will be preserved forever...
