Young people choose to return to their hometowns to start businesses - not because the city no longer has a place for them. Returning to the fields, to their ancestors' profession, to their homeland. Because returning is also a way for them to find their true selves...
Building a career from the village
Cua Khe Village ( Binh Duong , Thang Binh) is bustling these days with groups of people from all over coming to visit, experience the craft and seafood specialties. The young man Vo Nguyen Tung - a person who grew up in the village, is busy with the organization and connection.
The first groups of tourists coming to Cua Khe in the summer of 2020, with a series of activities to experience community tourism in the coastal village, all started with connections with Vo Nguyen Tung. Working in theeducation sector in Da Nang City, with a stable job, but this young man born from the sea still insisted on starting a business in his hometown.
A series of community tourism products were born from Tung's original idea, and are operated by a group of young and old people in the village. Cua Khe Community Tourism Cooperative receives more favor from partners because of the meticulousness in each stage of organization.
Tourism activities are continuously organized. And above all, the fish sauce bottles of the craft village have established their brand, from the story of systematic operation by young people like Tung.
In Quang Nam, especially in traditional craft villages, more and more young people are choosing to return - to stay and develop. They are children of families that have been doing traditional crafts for generations, and this "genetic code" is unintentionally a prerequisite for many young people to stay in the village.
Preserving a craft village means preserving the reputation of the village, preserving the pride of our ancestors. In the effort to recover from losses, sharp thinking and application in the digital age have helped many craft villages become known and revive in their own unique way.
Not to mention, the trend of using handmade products, combined with priorities from mechanisms and policies for developing craft villages..., has created conditions for them to demonstrate their abilities.
Traditional products made from local resources are the goal when operating the OCOP program in Quang Nam. What to do to create key products of the country or each locality in many fields is the "problem" for startups.
Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee Ho Quang Buu said that in order to reach national key products, Quang Nam will gradually form many provincial key products and below that, key products of each locality. This selection is the "threshold" for each traditional product to be shaped by young entrepreneurs to become more and more professional.
About farming
The return also witnessed a series of young urban people choosing to return to the countryside and farm according to their aspirations. Nguyen Van Nhan - owner of Rom Vang Farm in Dien Ban, is becoming a model for spreading inspiration for clean agriculture and forest gardens. Difficult, of course. Because to transform the land to follow one's aspirations is not a matter of one or two days.
Nhan persistently creates a unique value system for his agricultural products and creates a sales channel with those who believe in the products of an organic "forest garden". It is still unknown how many challenges there will be in the long run, but he persists in pursuing what his ego believes is right...
Quang Nam currently has about 500 economic models, cooperatives and cooperatives owned by young entrepreneurs. Of these, about 1/3 of young people choose to start their own businesses in their villages. Making the land "blossom" is the desire of many young people today.
In the agricultural fields, farmers are no longer just simply fertilizing or harvesting. They choose to deeply process agricultural products and apply online business solutions to avoid being stuck with output like their fathers' generation every harvest season.
Duong Hien Tu - the owner of a chain of clean food stores An Phu Farm from Quang Nam to Da Nang, has succeeded in creating a closed loop from farm to table. He established a livestock farm in Go Noi next to clean vegetable fields that meet strict criteria to reach consumers.
The number of returning footsteps is increasing day by day. Returning, rebuilding the business with the profession of their ancestors, with the fields and crops, on the foundation of "real learning" from many years of wandering.
Developing or even getting rich, in the first concept, is how to make people living there not have to witness separations, the land has enough potential to call people back. As a natural, familiar, dear thing, that any child who goes far away, does not want to return to their motherland...
