BHG - By the end of 2024, the rate of people aged 15-60 in the province with level 1 literacy reached 95.77%, level 2 reached 87.85%; 193/193 communes, wards and towns met the literacy standards (XMC). This is an encouraging achievement in the XMC work of our province. Currently, localities continue to synchronously deploy many solutions to improve the intellectual level of the people.
When night falls, more than 20 students of the XMC class in Doan Ket village, Ho Thau commune (Hoang Su Phi) put aside all their work and went to the village hall to learn to read and write. Their sunburned, calloused hands, which were used to holding plows and hoes, now fumbled with pens and ink, carefully writing each letter. During the break, Mrs. Ban Mui Phin excitedly shared: Before, life was difficult, I did not have the conditions to go to school so I could not read. Being illiterate is a disadvantage, it is very difficult, I do not know how to calculate and make a living. At first, I felt inferior because I was old, but with the encouragement of the commune cadres and teachers, I was determined to go to school. Knowing how to read and write, I can read and understand the documents that agricultural cadres came to the village to propagate and guide people to develop production to apply to the development of the family economy . I am very happy and thank the teachers very much.
