DTO – In the past time, in Dong Thap, poverty reduction policy has really come to life, it is the efforts of Party committees and authorities at all levels with practical and effective solutions. Many households have risen out of poverty, living well, and the poverty rate has decreased significantly across the province. However, there is still a part of people who do not really want to get out of poverty or have escaped poverty but still want to "be" as a poor household.
With the spirit of effort, Mr. Phung Van Hung in Phu Tho commune, Tam Nong district has escaped poverty and become a well-off business (Certificate photo).
Only in 2022, with the spirit of solidarity and mutual love in the community, has joined hands to take care of the poor in the province in many forms with a total amount of over 100 billion VND. This is an important, remarkable and profound result, contributing to encouraging and encouraging poor households to overcome difficulties and rise out of poverty. Comrade Le Thanh Cong - Chairman of the Vietnam Fatherland Front Committee of the province, Head of the Department of Mobilization, Management and Use of the Fund "For the Poor" of Dong Thap province still wondered and worried that, in reality, there were still Many poor households still have limited awareness, do not have self-control to rise up, rely on the State's policies, thinking that "I don't worry, because I have a Front to take care of"... This is a problem that needs to be addressed. more active solutions, going into depth, especially in advocacy and propaganda work in the social community.
In the past, we have heard a lot about such things as: quarrels over competing to be recognized as poor households; take advantage, run around to get a poor household book or organize a party to celebrate when being granted a poor household book… Is it when a part of the people considers the State's support policy for the poor as a "privilege" they always want to put on the "poor household" shirt to continue to benefit. And when the poor still have the idea of "preferring poverty", they obviously do not want to make efforts to get out of poverty. An official in the commune said that he was very concerned every time he met to consider a poor household, because many relatives wanted to be poor. If this household compares with the other, the household that has escaped poverty will find every reason to wish to be recognized as a poor household; and poor households want to continue to be poor households, even though the local authorities' efforts to explain, advocate and propagate, have not been successful. The story seems paradoxical, but that thought is still present in a part of the people in the communes.
We greatly admire Mr. Luong Van Sang in Dinh An commune, Lap Vo district as a poor household, whose house collapsed and had to be covered with plastic tarpaulins to live in. The locality provided charity houses but refused to give them to others because they thought left two hands together with his wife and children to work, save… and got out of poverty, built a new house. We admire Ms. Dao Thi Anh from Ward 4, Sa Dec City, who voluntarily wrote an application to get out of poverty, although her family has not yet called her rich, but with the determination to rise up on her own, thinking that "I feel I have enough to live on. I don't have much to eat and drink, my children are also growing up, so I send them a near-poor book." These are examples that are worthy of praise and respect.
Showing the spirit and determination to reduce poverty sustainably, the Resolution of the 2020th Congress of the Dong Thap Provincial Party Committee for the 2025-1 term set the target of reducing the poverty rate by 2025% per year on average; By 3, the poverty rate of the province will be less than 2025%. The per capita income of poor households by the end of 1,8 will increase by 2020 times compared to XNUMX. However, if the thought of liking poverty and wanting poor households to become a "brand" to benefit, although it is not popular, it will barriers to achieving poverty reduction goals. The perception that always depends on the policies of the State, not willing to do business, but still wants to rely on the label of poor households to benefit will be false and negative thoughts that need to have measures to prevent and correct. .
In order for the Party and State's poverty reduction policy to be superior, we need to provide the right support to the right target; improve the quality and effectiveness of propaganda and advocacy. From there, poor households with "self-esteem" will rise up on their own, realizing that poverty is a disadvantage that needs to be worked on, striving to get out of poverty, not a "title" to try. maintain, preserve. At the same time, with the responsibility of the whole community, it will contribute to ensuring social security, arousing love and aspiration for the poor to step by step rise out of poverty sustainably.
