Bringing convenience to the people

The Vietnam Fatherland Front Committee of Giong Rieng Commune in coordination with Vikki Bank - Giong Rieng Transaction Office, An Giang Branch, has just donated smartphones to poor and near-poor households. Mr. Ha Tung Lam, residing in Lang Quam Hamlet, is one of 10 poor and near-poor households to receive a Samsung A6 5G phone. He happily shared: “I work for hire all year round and have no money to buy a new phone. I have always used old phones given to me by my relatives. This is the first time I have received a brand new smartphone. I can watch the news and look up necessary information. The Front officials also promised to guide me on how to do the procedures online, so I don't have to go far anymore. I am very happy and feel like I am keeping up with the times.”

That story shows that digital transformation is coming to each household through practical actions from the grassroots. Not only stopping at smartphones, in the past term, the Fatherland Front of Giong Rieng commune mobilized people's strength, creating a strong mark in social security and rural infrastructure construction. The commune mobilized the construction and repair of 373 solidarity houses; with the cooperation of religious organizations and philanthropists, supported the construction of 486 houses, with a cost of more than 25 billion VND.

In particular, the Front coordinated with organizations and philanthropists to build 127 rural traffic bridges, costing more than 50 billion VND. Concrete bridges replacing temporary bridges help people travel safely, students go to school conveniently, and goods circulate easily. Ms. Duong Hong Nhi, living in Ta Yem hamlet, excitedly said: "Before, to cross the river, we had to use a very dangerous monkey bridge. During the rainy season, it was slippery, and students often fell on their way to school. Now that there is a solid concrete bridge, people can travel safely, and trading agricultural products is much more convenient."

Thanks to these results, the number of poor households in the commune decreased from 167 households in 2021 to 101 households in 2024, a decrease of more than 60%.

Connecting the Party's ideas with the people's hearts

These practical activities are the way the Vietnam Fatherland Front of Giong Rieng commune implements the plan of the commune Party Committee, concretizing the Central's policy on digital transformation. Chairman of the Vietnam Fatherland Front Committee of Giong Rieng commune Pham Khuong Duy said: "We always determine that the mobilization work must be clear about people, clear about work, clear about responsibilities and effective. From building houses, bridges, roads to giving smartphones to poor households... all are associated with the common goal of improving people's lives, so that people trust and accompany the government".

Comrade Nguyen Minh Trang - Secretary of the Party Committee of Giong Rieng Commune emphasized: "The Party Committee of the commune highly appreciates the contributions of the Vietnam Fatherland Front of the commune in the work of digital transformation and taking care of people's lives. These practical activities contribute to sustainable poverty reduction, building new rural areas and moving towards a model new rural area. This is the foundation for the commune to develop in the coming term, at the same time contributing to the successful implementation of the resolution of the Commune Party Congress, Resolution No. 57-NQ/TW of the Politburo and Plan No. 02-KH/BCĐTW of the Central Steering Committee on digital transformation work".

From the roof of affection, the bridge, the concrete road to the smartphone, the Fatherland Front of Giong Rieng commune has been affirming its role as a strong bridge between the Party, the government and the people.
