Mr. Duong Van Hau, Party Cell Secretary, a prestigious person in Pu Lung village, Xuan Lac commune, Cho Don district: "Overcoming pressure to mobilize people to abandon evil religions"
In previous years, Pu Lung village had a number of households who had been lured into participating in illegal and cult organizations with rituals and ceremonies that were contrary to the customs and practices of the Mong ethnic group, causing public confusion and affecting the security and order situation. Fully aware of the policy of the Party, State and local authorities on eliminating cults and illegal organizations, as the Party Cell Secretary and a prestigious person, Mr. Duong Van Hau was determined to lead households away from the "lost" path. However, the process of propaganda and mobilization encountered many difficulties, because the leaders and key members often gave instructions on how to deal with the propaganda team, especially Mr. Hau himself, who lived in the village. Every time Mr. Hau and the working group came to his house to propagate, the subjects often tried to prevent them from entering the house, used insulting and offensive words, even called a large crowd to question and put pressure.
“I am not afraid of pressure, I have to persevere until the end. If I cannot persuade them for a day, I will persist for a week, sometimes even a few months, explaining and clarifying the nature of the illegal organization. At the same time, I will guide people who have a need for belief and religion to join religious organizations recognized by the State. Thanks to that, 10 households with nearly 30 members have abandoned the illegal organization and switched to activities at a recognized Protestant group,” Mr. Duong Van Hau shared.
Mr. Vu Trung Huan, Party Cell Secretary, a prestigious person in Phieng Ca - Con Poong village, Nam Cuong commune, Cho Don district: "Mobilizing people to preserve identity to develop tourism "
As a village with a cultural heritage of bowl dancing and Then singing, people still preserve the craft of embroidering patterns on Red Dao costumes, strawberry fields, Pac Chan cave, Tuay Dap hill... all of these things have created a Phieng Ca - Con Poong that is both poetic, mysterious, and rich in regional identity. In particular, Phieng Ca - Con Poong is adjacent to Ba Be Lake Tourist Area, so it has many advantages for developing community tourism.
As a Party cell secretary, a prestigious person who has participated in training courses and field trips to learn from experience, Mr. Huan clearly understands that to do community tourism, it is necessary to preserve the natural landscape and preserve traditional cultural values. Ethnic and community cultural materials such as Then singing melodies, Tinh lutes of the Tay people, embroidery patterns on the costumes of the Red Dao people, harvest festivals, and the coming-of-age ceremony are of particular interest to Mr. Huan, who encourages people to preserve and promote them. Because he knows, these are the "spiritual foods" that tourists love when exploring and experiencing community tourism.
With the support and advice of the Department of Culture, Science and Information, Mr. Huan's family is renovating and investing in the construction of rooms and check-in points in Tai Ngao with a total area of 700m2 . The yard is paved with gravel and surrounded by trees, in the yard are small huts to serve tourists to visit, experience, build parking lots, stopping points for tourists to visit strawberry fields, potatoes... Some households in the village have also started to learn from Mr. Huan's family to renovate their houses, gardens, and alleys to do community tourism. "Coc Lung Night Market", Con Poong community tourism spot - these brands are gradually taking shape and developing. This is the result of investment policies of the province and district, efforts of local Party committees and authorities, contributions of people, including Secretary of Phieng Ca - Con Poong village Party Cell Vu Trung Huan.
Ms. Duong Thi Hoan, a prestigious person in Hung Thinh village, Cong Bang commune, Pac Nam district: "Slow and steady wins the race" in the movement to build new rural areas
From 2023 to now, the people have contributed 400m2 of land to open a road to the village group, more than 400 working days and more than 25 million VND in cash to complete the road to light up the countryside. The village roads have been concreted, creating favorable conditions for people to travel and serve production. These figures show the spirit of solidarity and internal strength of the people of Hung Thinh village, Cong Bang commune (Pac Nam). For a village with difficulties like Hung Thinh, to gain consensus and a spirit for the common good requires great efforts from cadres, associations, unions and prestigious people in propaganda and mobilization work.
“President Ho Chi Minh taught: "A hundred times easier without the people, ten thousand times harder, it can be done", Hung Thinh village determined that doing a good job of propaganda and mobilizing the people will be the "universal key" to successfully implementing the new rural construction program. Promoting the role of a prestigious person, I myself have focused on propagating and mobilizing the people in the village through Party cell meetings, village unions, training classes, news briefings, cultural, artistic, and sports activities...", Ms. Duong Thi Hoan, a prestigious person in Hung Thinh village, Cong Bang commune, Pac Nam district shared.
According to Ms. Hoan, to do well in mass mobilization work, first of all, she and her family must be exemplary, taking the lead in contributing funds, donating land, and contributing labor days when building infrastructure projects. "Slow and steady wins the race" is an effective method in propaganda and mobilization. That means we must persistently go to each house, meet each person, meet many times, and gradually convince people to understand, agree, and implement.
