The post has applied different ways to each family to help them develop household economy, thus eliminating hunger and reducing poverty.
For the poor family of parishioner Nguyen Thi Nham, whose parents are over 80 years old, the post has guided them to follow the breeding sow model. The unit has provided them with two pairs of breeding sows and after one year, they have given birth to 15 pigs. The model, as Nham said, is suitable for her family since she could take advantage of the family's leftover food while still having time to take care of her elderly parents.
According to Secretary of the Party Committee of Hamlet 5 Bui Thanh Nghiem in Dien Hai commune, Dien Thanh Border Post has coordinated with local authorities to assist people in developing their economy with different effective models. This year, the post has supported two poor households in raising pigs and cows. The post-assisted models help families earn VND 20-30 million a year. “This is a source of encouragement to families to eliminate poverty and a model for other households to follow,” said Nghiem.
