On September 23, 1981, the Chairman of the Council of Ministers issued Decision No. 79/QD-HDBT, approving the demarcation of the boundaries to divide Binh Nguyen commune into two new administrative units under Thang Binh district.

Accordingly, the villages of Liễu Trì, Liễu Thạnh, Thanh Ly 1, Thanh Ly 2, zones 4 and 5 of Hà Lam, and Chung Phước village were retained to form Bình Nguyên commune. Zones 1, 2, and 3 of Hà Lam, Đồng Thái village, and zone 5 of Thanh Ly village were separated to form Hà Lam town. By the end of 1984, zones 4 and 5 of Hà Lam and Chung Phước village were merged into Hà Lam town; Bình Nguyên commune now consists of 4 villages: Liễu Trì, Liễu Thạnh, Thanh Ly 1, and Thanh Ly 2.

After the separation process was completed, Binh Nguyen commune has a population of nearly 6,000 people, with 810 households. The administrative boundaries of Binh Nguyen commune now comprise 4 villages: Lieu Thanh, Lieu Tri, Thanh Ly 1, and Thanh Ly 2.
