The move is part of the locality’s plan to build 500 new houses for the needy in 2024, eliminating the situation of poor and near-poor people living in temporary, damaged, and deteriorating houses in 2025.
According to the provincial People’s Committee, right after the Prime Minister issued an official dispatch on the repair and construction of houses for the needy across the country, the province has rolled out measures to implement the scheme. It has assigned relevant agencies to establish a fund for the work to build better homes.
In 2024 and 2025, the province aims to support the repair and construction of 1,948 houses, including the building of 1,653 new houses and the repair of 295 existing dilapidated homes, with an estimated fund of over 205 billion VND (8.07 million USD).
Pham Thi Bich Ha, Vice President of the provincial Vietnam Fatherland Front (VFF) Committee, said that with the engagement of the whole political system and community, the eradication of temporary and dilapidated houses for all poor households in the province is reachable.
The committee said that currently, Ninh Thuan has more than 1,600 households with difficulties in housing.
On the occasion of the "Month for the Poor," Chairman of the provincial People's Committee Tran Quoc Nam sent an open letter to businesses, donors and individuals in and outside the province, calling for their helping hand in building houses for poor and near-poor households, to provide them with stable living conditions.
In the 2023-2025 period, Ninh Thuan plans to build 1,243 houses for the needy. Last year, 243 houses were constructed, while 500 are expected to be built this year and the rest within 2025. The minimum support to the construction of each house is 100 million VND.
