In addition, the province also supported 837 houses for near-poor households in ethnic minority areas, of which 550 houses have been started and 49 houses have been completed.
Mr. Tran Phong, Chairman of the People's Committee of Quang Tri province, said that in the locality, the program to eliminate temporary and dilapidated houses was urgently implemented, attracting strong support from the social community. The program received active participation from many units and forces. The Quang Tri Provincial Youth Union launched the movement "Youth Union members contribute 20,000 working days" and mobilized over 10,600 working days.
The provincial police supported nearly 200 tons of cement, hundreds of millions of VND and labor days. The provincial Border Guard undertook the construction of hundreds of houses for the disadvantaged. The provincial Labor Federation mobilized and supported billions of VND. Many households also proactively contributed additional funds and labor. Authorities at all levels closely coordinated, mobilized and effectively used resources to ensure progress.
However, locally, the program still faces some difficulties, such as 1,240 houses that have not been able to start construction due to lack of central funding. In addition, some households do not have enough conditions to match, the custom of choosing a date to build a house or difficult geographical conditions also affect the progress.
The People's Committee of Quang Tri province has sent a document reporting to the Central Government on the need for additional resources to complete the target in 2025. "With the strong direction of the provincial leaders, the participation of departments, localities and especially the joint efforts of the community, the program to eliminate temporary and dilapidated houses in Quang Tri is approaching the finish line," said the Chairman of the People's Committee of Quang Tri province.
