Among these families are exemplary families who have risen from poverty to prosperity. Many families have raised their children to study well. Many families are shining examples of volunteer work and have contributed to local development.
* Bridge of people's solidarity
Mr. Dieu Minh (Choro ethnic group, Phu Tuc commune, Dinh Quan district) is the Party Cell Secretary and Head of Dong Xoai hamlet.
Mr. Dieu Minh said that 85% of the hamlet's 464 households are Choro ethnic people. Of the 15 party members of the cell, there are 5 ethnic minority party members. The material and spiritual life of the people is increasingly improving.
During his 3 years as Party Cell Secretary and Hamlet Chief, Mr. Dieu Minh connected people to maintain security, order, and environmental sanitation. He regularly met and discussed with people about maintaining internal solidarity, not listening to bad people who would affect the great solidarity of the whole nation.
Mr. Minh said: “I always tell people that the State is increasingly paying more attention to people's lives, many jobs are created through industrial parks and clusters, convenient transportation and trade, policy capital sources, and poverty reduction programs in ethnic minority areas are being implemented. The problem is that people have to work hard to change their lives.”
In addition, there are many policies for ethnic minority children to study locally or go to boarding schools. Parents must encourage their children to go to school, each child must work hard to hope to have a good job in the future...
According to Mr. Minh, propaganda is not enough, he and his family must set an example. Mr. Minh said that he and his wife used to work on the farm. But then the area was small, the profit was low, so he and his wife switched to working as workers. They worked hard and had a stable job, so their life did not lack anything. Their two children, born in 2006 and 2013, are of school age and are being tutored to make progress in their studies and achieve good results.
“From then on, people saw what I did and what I said and believed in my propaganda. There were cases of children dropping out of school even though they were only in 2nd or 8th grade. Teachers contacted me and I went to each house, met each parent and each child to talk. Luckily, the children returned to school,” Mr. Minh shared.
Similarly, over the past 6 years, Party member Tho Mi, a prestigious person among ethnic minorities in Xuan Que commune (Cam My district), has been actively playing the role of a bridge between the Party, the government and the people.
Mr. Tho Mi said that the commune has about 80 households of the Choro ethnic group. Many elderly people in the community still cannot read or speak Vietnamese fluently. Therefore, when taking on this position, he became an interpreter to bring propaganda content about the Party and State's policies to the people in their own language. At the same time, he is also a channel to respond to people's opinions and aspirations to the government.
Along with that, Mr. Tho Mi also connects people to join the hamlet's Self-Management Team, of which he is the team leader. Currently, the team has 45 members assigned time to patrol and guard the hamlet's roads. To encourage the volunteer spirit of each person, although he is over 60 years old, Mr. Tho Mi still maintains patrolling or guarding at the designated time with the members.

In addition, according to Mr. Mi, the Choro people live in concentrated areas and these places are often fields located far from the commune center. Therefore, to proactively light up the village, he mobilized people to contribute funds to install lighting and contribute 10,000 VND/household/month to pay for electricity to light the roads and received the people's consent.
Currently, four members of his family are working together to soon put the gong team into operation. “My wife, son and daughter all want to maintain the traditional culture of our community, which is gong beating and dancing, so the whole family supports each other in the process of building this team. Hopefully, there will soon be children in the community willing to practice gong beating, drumming and dancing,” Mr. Mi shared.
* Share with the community
Currently, in the province, there are many ethnic minority families actively implementing social security work in the locality. Among them is the family of Mr. Ly Nam Sang, a prestigious person among the Chinese ethnic group, Tan Phong Ward (Bien Hoa City) - a rare ethnic minority family in the province with 2 children who have both completed the doctoral training program.

According to Mr. Sang, to help people in need, through his family's mobilization and contributions, each year he gives 3-4 gift packages to people with the quantity of 200-300 gifts per package. He also plays a role in connecting sources of contributions to help families in difficult circumstances pay for the funerals of their relatives.
Similarly, the family of party member Dinh Thi Kim Dieu (Vinh Tan commune, Vinh Cuu district) also actively carries out social security activities in the locality.
Ms. Dieu shared that nearly 25 years ago, her family came to live and work in Dong Nai. Initially, because they had no jobs, in addition to farming, she and her husband worked for families in need. In 2002, her family bought a well drilling machine to drill wells to find water for people in need. Her family also proactively converted to crops and livestock with higher economic value in the family garden. Although the work was hard, her family worked hard together and gradually built a prosperous life.
Since 2012, as a prestigious person among ethnic minorities in the commune, she has strived to become a bridge in propagating and mobilizing people to comply with the Party's policies and the laws of the State and locality, as well as reflecting the people's recommendations and aspirations to the government. In addition, from her own real story, she has mobilized 150 ethnic minority families to proactively strive to build the economy.
As for Mr. Nguyen Van Dung, in early 2023, he replaced his father as a prestigious person among the Choro people in Nhan Hoa hamlet, Tay Hoa commune (Trang Bom district). Currently, Mr. Dung is the youngest prestigious person among ethnic minorities in the province at the age of 27. Although he has only been in this position for half a year, Mr. Dung has quickly caught up with the work.
In addition to demonstrating their youthful strength by being recognized as good farmers in ethnic minority areas, Mr. Dung and his wife also used their friendships to seek social resources to organize charity work. Thanks to that, this young couple supported ethnic minorities in difficult circumstances and poor households in the locality with many gifts of food, groceries, and books for children.
