communes, there are 114/172 schools meeting  
national standards, accounting for 66.28%. The  
province has built 04 district cultural centers,  
upgraded and repaired 06 commune cultural centers,  
ensuring that 100% of communes have cultural  
houses and communal sports areas, cultural houses  
and hamlet sports areas up to standards. The medical  
stations are fully equipped with facilities to serve  
medical examination and treatment, waste collection  
and treatment in accordance with regulations of the  
Ministry of Health. The Bank for Social Policies  
has coordinated with socio-political organizations  
to receive entrustment disbursements for 17,279  
turns of poor, near-poor households, who have just  
escaped poverty in rural areas, with a total amount  
of VND 580 billion 629 million. The province has  
created jobs for 26,833 workers; 2,396 pupils and  
students in rural areas with difficult circumstances  
are eligible for loans to go to school; built 42,870

works. There are 87.95% of people participating in  
health insurance; 100% of communes, wards and  
townships have doctors (Binh Duong New Rural  
Steering Committee, 2019).  
Thus, after 10 years of implementing the New  
Rural Development Program, Binh Duong province  
has basically completed essential works to meet  
the requirements of production development and  
improve the lives of people in rural areas: traffic,  
electricity, domestic water, schools, commune  
health stations and other social welfare; creating  
conditions for rural people to access many  
appropriate and effective agricultural production  
models associated with stable jobs for the people;  
increase incomes and improve living standards for  
people in rural areas, narrowing the gap between  
rural and urban areas.  
The localities have well done the work of  
mobilizing people to contribute capital, donate  
land, crops, work days,... to build intra-field roads,  
rural roads, inter-hamlet roads, and construction of  
works in service of the residential community, the  
contributions are all on the voluntary principle of the  
people in the communes and hamlets. Thereby also  
creating favorable conditions to call for enterprises  
to invest in rural areas, implement socialization in  
new rural development.  
4.2. Propaganda and mobilization for the  
implementation of the National Target Program  
on new rural development  
The propaganda of the National Target  
Program on new rural development was directed  
by the Provincial People’s Committee to the  
Department of Agriculture and Rural Development

diversify communication methods to strengthen  
the dissemination of mechanisms and policies,  
popularize good practices and effective models in  
new rural development, introduce the beauty of  
economic, cultural and social life... in hamlets and  
communes up to rural standards. Over 10 years of

articles; Propaganda about the new countryside on  
local radio stations with 24,343 hours (New Rural  
Steering Committee, 2019). Propaganda has been  
widely deployed and diversified in many forms,  
contributing to raising awareness of cadres, party  
members and people about the position and role of  
agriculture, farmers and rural areas. Therefore, the  
emulation movement “The whole country works  
together to build a new countryside” of the Central  
Government and widely deployed by Binh Duong  
province has received a positive response from all  
levels, sectors, localities and people in the province.  
Thanks to good propaganda and mobilization,  
localities have been very auspicious in mobilizing

province’s people and officials were honored to  
be awarded the Third-class Labor Medal by the  
State President for their outstanding achievements  
leading in the development of urban agriculture,  
high-tech agriculture associated with new rural  
development in the period of 2010-2019; Ben

Many individuals, collectives, organizations and  
businesses were awarded certificates of merit by  
the Provincial People’s Committee for their great  
contributions during the new rural development in  
the locality (https://mekongsean.vn/).  
The above results have brought great efficiency,  
high breakthrough, created a new and more  
optimistic view in implementing the task of new  
rural development of Binh Duong province over the  
past time. Thereby, contributing to the successful  
implementation of the province’s socio-economic  
development goals and aiming to improve the  
people’s material and spiritual living standards;  
towards building a civilized, rich and beautiful city.  
4.3. Theroleofpeopleinnewruraldevelopment  
In the process of new rural development, people  
are the key factor determining the effectiveness  
of the movement. Before the transformation of  
the countryside, besides inheriting the available  
conditions from the facilities, people had a chance  
to catch up with the new trend of the integration  
period by actively grasping scientific and technical  
knowledge, actively responding to movements  
of high-tech application in production, start-up,  
and innovation. The Farmers’ Unions at all levels  
have mobilized members to actively participate in  
the construction of rural infrastructure with a total  
donation of more than 6 billion VND and 6,000  
working days to build 590km of rural roads, repaired  
and renewed 10 bridges and culverts, 37,000m2 of  
land has been donated for public welfare works.  
In the annual program, the development plans of  
the province are dedicated to specific decisions  
for rural people such as vocational training for  
rural workers, production support, charity house  
construction, science and technology transfer,  
preferential loans for production,... In addition, the  
movement of farmers emulating good production  
and business has created a lively emulation  
atmosphere across the province, the whole  
province has over 132,000 households winning  
the title of productive farmers - good business at  
all levels. The application of high technology in  
agricultural production has been applied by many  
businesses, farms and farmers, bringing high  
economic efficiency. Collective economic models  
In addition to the achievements, the task of

factors in urban fringe communes, communes with  
industrial zones and clusters...  
The above limitations stem from the following  
basic reasons:  
Party committees and local authorities have  
not paid due attention to new rural development.  
Some places still have the mindset of waiting and  
relying on the investment of the State budget. In  
addition, the capacity of cadres working in new  
rural development in some localities is still limited,  
not really active in advising and proposing the  
implementation of the Program.  
Secondly, promote the implementation of  
agricultural restructuring in the direction of  
increasing production value associated with new  
rural development (in which, priority is given to  
developing the region’s strengths in fruit trees,  
vegetables, medicinal plants, specialty plants,  
livestock, poultry, forestry...), clean agricultural  
production and organic agriculture; focus on  
forestry development associated with sustainable  
poverty reduction; strengthen the implementation  
of the “One Commune One Product” (OCOP)  
program, develop community-based tourism in  
association with new rural development.  
Thirdly, complete and improve the quality of  
basic infrastructure systems in rural areas, with  
focus on investing in projects in hamlets to directly  
improve the living and production conditions  
of rural people, respond to natural disasters and  
climate change. Improve the quality of health care  
and education, build cultural and sports institutions  
to promote and improve the quality of cultural and  
sports activities, eliminate social customs and evils  
to improve the spiritual life of rural people. Preserve  
and promote the cultural diversity of ethnic groups,  
as a basis for replicating models of community-  
based tourism in rural areas.  
Fourthly, improve the efficiency of administrative  
reform, implement policies to attract and call  
for businesses to invest in localities, focusing on  
attracting large enterprises to invest in agricultural  
product processing along the supply chain and non-  
agricultural sectors in order to create more jobs for  
rural workers.  
Fifthly, enhance the quality of training, fostering  
as well as vocational training for rural workers in  
association with specific programs and projects in  
the locality, encourage enterprises to participate in  
training, improve labor quality, and have solutions  
to supplement people’s skills. At the same time,  
attention should be paid to strengthening capacity  
building for staff working in new rural development  
at all levels, especially at commune and hamlet  
levels to improve the quality of advisory work,  
propose innovative and breakthrough mechanisms  
and policies suitable to local conditions.  
Propaganda work in some localities and units is  
still formal, so it has not created a widespread spread  
among the population, especially in rural areas.  
Social investment in agriculture is low, of  
which 50% is from the state budget, only 16.7% is  
from enterprises. Small household economy still  
accounts for a high proportion and is revealing  
limitations and weaknesses hindering the process  
of agricultural industrialization and modernization.  
Enterprises have not been able to bring into full  
play their potential in rural economic development  
and new rural development.  
Many localities focus on investing a lot in  
transport and rural infrastructure, but some contents  
directly affect people’s lives such as health,  
education, culture, environment, security and order,  
social safety... has not been given due attention.  
Besides, the population growth is fast and it is a  
favorable area for criminals to hide and operate  
(it is estimated that every year, the province adds  
more than 80,000 people from outside the province  
to work and live in the province). Up to now, the  
proportion of people outside the province accounts  
for 53.5% of the province’s population) (Binh  
Duong Provincial Party Committee, 2020).  
4.4. Some solutions to improve the effectiveness  
of new rural development program in the coming  
time  
In order to continue to promote the achieved  
results and overcome the limitations and difficulties  
in the new rural development program, in addition  
to inheriting the solutions that have been and are  
being implemented in the coming time, Binh  
Duong province needs to continue to implement the  
following solutions:  
Sixthly, to consolidate and improve the quality  
and performance of the steering committee and the  
steering committee’s assistant department; Improve  
the quality of vocational training for rural workers  
in association with the new rural development  
planning, concentrated commodity production  
models according to the agricultural restructuring  
scheme and the direction of economic restructuring,  
the needs of the labor market.  
Firstly, regularly strengthen and inspect the  
implementation of the New Rural Development  
Program; continue to promote propaganda and raise  
awareness of both the political system and the people  
in order to arouse the potential and advantages of the  
locality in socio-economic development, ensuring  
security and order... strive to fulfill the planned  
targets of the National Target Program on new rural  
development for the period of 2021-2025.  
Seventhly, building and replicating good  
practices and models of new rural development;

Promptly reward and motivate organizations and not high, the progress of building criteria is still slow.  
individuals to do well and make great contributions  
to the Program.  
Fifthly, new rural development is a large  
program with many contents, covering all fields  
of socio-economic life in rural areas, but the direct  
level of implementation is at the commune level.  
Most of the staff have limited qualifications, have  
not met the requirements of assigned tasks, are still  
confused, while the support of the State is not really  
timely, some criteria are difficult to fulfill...  
5. Discussion  
Despite achieving positive results, the process  
of new rural development in Binh Duong province  
is also posing some problems such as:  
Firstly, the communes that meet the new rural  
development standards of the province are still  
lower than the common level of other provinces;  
quality standards and maintaining and improving  
6. Conclusion  
It can be said that, after 10 years of  
the quality of the criteria are still limited and not implementing the National Target Program on New  
really sustainable.  
Rural Development of the Central Government  
and the province, the appearance of Binh Duong’s  
countryside today has changed markedly, the  
material and spiritual life of people in the  
countryside has been increasingly improved. The  
current agricultural structure of the province is low  
compared to other sectors and fields, however, along  
with the process of industrialization, modernization  
and urbanization, the agriculture, farmers and rural  
areas have undergone comprehensive changes and  
are geared towards modern agriculture, high-tech  
agriculture and urban agriculture. These changes  
in the countryside have made the socio-economic  
aspect of the province more prosperous, the  
economy developed, the poverty rate decreased  
higher than other localities in the country and  
higher than the criteria of the Central Government;  
social evils and outdated customs have been pushed  
back and eliminated; cultural identity is preserved  
and promoted, the great unity of the whole nation  
is consolidated. This is the driving force for Binh  
Duong province to successfully carry out the tasks  
of socio-economic development, preservation of  
security and defense, creating a solid premise for  
successfully implementing the task of building  
an increasingly civilized and modern province  
in the period of industrialization, modernization,  
urbanization, international integration and towards  
building Binh Duong the smart city in the future.  
Secondly, some localities mainly focus on  
infrastructure investment; the link between the  
construction of new rural areas and the restructuring  
of the agricultural sector is not close; the results  
of the implementation of the criteria for rural  
development in terms of income, poor households,  
and production organization have not achieved  
high results; The quality and operational capacity  
of agricultural cooperatives is still weak.  
Thirdly, the rural environment has been  
paid attention, but solutions for environmental  
protection and improvement are still limited and not  
effective; The quality of food hygiene and safety  
and agricultural products have made progress, but  
the change is not really clear. The infrastructure  
has not met the development requirements, the  
production of goods in the field of agriculture and  
forestry is not commensurate with the potential of  
the province.  
Fourthly, there is a contradiction between the  
new and the old that is posed in the process of new  
rural development in some places, especially in the  
rural areas of the province. It is the reception for  
new cultural features, suitable for modern life or  
the preservation of traditional elements that are still  
not fully understood by the people. Therefore, the  
efficiency of new rural development in the locality is
