Dak Nong border district creates livelihoods for the poor

Over the years, along with economic development, Dak Song district has always cared for the poor, contributing to improving people's lives better and better.

Dak Song District ( Dak Nong ) calls for support to help eliminate temporary houses for more than 90 poor households in 2025.

According to statistics, the district currently has 21,006 households, with 85,551 people. The number of poor households in 2024 in the district is 398 households (accounting for 1.89%), a decrease of 194 households compared to before, exceeding 137% compared to the plan compared to 2023.

With the motto of “leaving no one behind”, support solutions are developed synchronously, creating motivation to help many poor households have conditions to develop the economy. Recently, the district has reviewed and grasped the current situation of poor and near-poor households, clearly identifying the main causes leading to poverty.

Since then, the district has effectively implemented programs, projects and policies to reduce poverty. In particular, attention has been paid to solutions to support production, access to service facilities associated with new rural construction; improving the quality of vocational training associated with employment solutions for workers.

Leaders of Dak Song District Party Committee and People's Committee visited families in difficult circumstances in the district.

Mr. Dieu Hien's family in Dak N'Drung commune has truly risen out of poverty thanks to the family's internal strength and the support of the model "5 party members help 1 household escape poverty" ("5+1" group).

Mr. Dieu Hien shared: “Our family has received support from the Dak Song District Military Command in many ways. We are fortunate to receive both material and spiritual support, so our economy is increasingly stable.”

To support poor agencies in developing producers, the “5+1” teams and groups take turns during the holidays to closely monitor and guide techniques for growing crops and livestock to achieve economic efficiency. Support work is also carried out in material terms such as: machinery, plant and animal varieties, fertilizers, poultry feed, etc. instead of cash.

According to the leader of Dak Song District People's Committee, the transfer of livelihoods and support of breeding animals are among the important solutions to help people stabilize their lives. The district supports breeding animals such as cows and goats.
