To Giang: Rural revolution converts communities into flowering oases!

On May 16, 2025, Vietnam reports that the province of Giang is making considerable progress in the development of civilized and modern urban areas. The province currently has 80 out of 110 municipalities that are recognized as new rural communities, which corresponds to a quota of 72.7 %. Among them, 38 municipalities meet the advanced NTM standards, while 8 municipalities have reached the status of a model community in rural areas.

A remarkable success is the recognition of three districts - Chau Doc, Long Xuyen and Thoai Son - as new rural districts. The latter was recognized in 2023 as an advanced NTM district. This progress is the result of comprehensive improvements in rural infrastructure, such as concreting and asphalted thousands of kilometers, the full coverage of the province with the national power grid and the expansion of schools and the strengthening of the health network to improve medical care.

Sustainable agriculture has also become more important. Giang has developed innovative production models along the value chain and converts the program "A municipality, a product" (OCOP). My Hoa Hung is highlighted as an example of an exemplary new rural area, where the degree of mechanization in cultivation reaches 94.6 %. This community also shows a strong focus on the small industry, services and ecotourism.

Investments in the urban infrastructure are just as promising. Central traffic structures are built to better network the economic regions. The modernization of streets, sidewalks and public lighting systems forms the basis for a civilized lifestyle. Over 100 % of the main roads are illuminated to today's publication, and almost all households use clean water.

urban challenges and solutions

In Giang, over 90 % of the fixed waste is collected and treated in urban areas. The province relies on modern information technology in urban management, including surveillance cameras and online authorities to improve the effectiveness of the administration. In this context, a civilized urban lifestyle is also promoted and compliance with the laws.

Cultural, sporting and tourist activities contribute to social integration and promoting active community life. The combination of the development of rural and urban areas aims to improve the quality of life and promote the socio -economic development of the province.

The developments in Giang illustrate how targeted measures to improve structures can have positive effects on the living conditions of the population in both urban and rural areas. The focus is on innovative approaches, as in the study by Berghöfer et al. (2020) About health care in rural areas that can give a clue for further developments Springer .
