Immediately after the merger, Than Khe commune streamlined its organizational structure for greater efficiency. The Public Administrative Service Center received and processed 1,429 applications. All procedures are publicly listed, and synchronized information technology is applied, maximizing convenience for people coming to transact. Mr. Tran Duy Huy from Duyen Truong village shared: "I find the process of handling administrative procedures now much faster and clearer than before. The staff handling the applications are enthusiastic, responsible, and professional. We citizens truly feel served."
Ms. Pham Thi Hien, Vice Chairwoman of the Commune People's Committee and Director of the Commune Public Administrative Service Center, said: After the merger, the number of people coming to transact at the Center has increased significantly. The commune government proactively arranged personnel and assigned tasks scientifically to ensure that procedures are processed quickly and without overload. Currently, the Center is actively promoting the application of information technology, synchronizing data with the provincial system, and gradually implementing digital transformation in administrative management. In addition, training and skill development for officials and civil servants are also emphasized to meet the requirements of serving the people professionally.
Along with the efficient operation of the Public Administrative Service Center, Than Khe commune is implementing a comprehensive set of solutions to promote socio-economic development based on its existing potential and resources. A clear example is the development of traditional craft villages, which both preserve cultural identity and create stable livelihoods for the people. In Chi Linh village, despite many ups and downs, the conical hat-making craft still maintains a vibrant rhythm of life every day. The image of women skillfully sewing hats has become familiar. On average, each person can make 2-3 plain hats or 1-2 high-quality hats per day. Market prices range from 30,000 VND per plain hat to 70,000-120,000 VND per high-quality hat. To maintain the craft village, Than Khe commune effectively maintains the operation of the Conical Hat Service Cooperative with over 1,000 members. Mr. Nguyen Van Duan, Director of the Conical Hat Service Cooperative, said: "To preserve the craft, the cooperative is gradually building its brand and expanding its market to ensure stable output, thereby creating sustainable development for the craft village and contributing to increased income and improved living standards for the people."
In Kênh village, the tofu-making craft has been famous for generations, and the people here always put their hearts into preserving the trade passed down from their ancestors.
Ms. Dang Thi Huong shared: "My family has been in this business for over 20 years. Every day, I use 100 kg of soybeans to produce more than 200 kg of tofu. Unlike many common types of tofu, tofu from Kenh village can be stored for 3-4 days in the refrigerator while still retaining its rich, creamy, and savory flavor, without any added impurities. The selling price ranges from 25,000 to 30,000 VND per kg."
Not only preserving traditional values through handicraft villages, Than Khe today is also undergoing a strong transformation in the flow of industrialization. With increasingly improved infrastructure and well-planned industrial clusters, the locality is aiming to become an attractive destination for investors from within and outside the province. Mr. Tran Xuan Dien, Chairman of the People's Committee of Than Khe commune, said: The Bac Son industrial cluster, with a scale of 70 hectares, is having its detailed planning finalized. Along with that, the Viet Bac and Dong Do industrial clusters have been proposed for inclusion in the provincial planning, opening up significant development potential for the locality. Major transportation routes such as DT.468 (Thai Ha), DT.455, DT.216, DH.60 … It is considered a strategic hub connecting Than Khe with the Hanoi - Hai Phong - Quang Ninh development triangle, creating momentum for shifting the local economic structure towards industry and trade. But service.
Building on the solid foundation laid after the merger, for the 2025-2030 term, the Than Khe Commune Party Committee has set forth five key tasks and three breakthroughs for development. These include focusing on building a clean and strong Party Committee and political system; prioritizing the development of clean, ecological agriculture linked to traditional crafts and villages; striving for an annual growth rate of 10.8% in total product value; and increasing per capita income by 110% by 2030 compared to 2025. The unity of the entire political system, along with a spirit of innovation and creativity, will be the driving force for Than Khe Commune to rise strongly and become a shining example in the socio-economic development of Hung Yen province.
