The People’s Committee of Tra Vinh Province has just approved a house development program for towns and rural residential areas, in which 15,000 households living under poor economic conditions or are on the poverty line, will receive support to build and repair their dilapidated houses.
The overall target of the program is set from now until 2020. As per the program, 15,000 households on the poverty line will receive support to build and upgrade their run-down homes.
