The northern province of Thai Nguyen and the Saeumaul Globalisation Foundation from the Republic of Korea (RoK) in Ha Noi on April 24 inked a cooperation deal on agriculture and rural area development.
Vice Chairman of the provincial People’s Committee Doan Van Tuan lauded the support of the RoK organisation for Thai Nguyen province over the years.
Tuan also asked the organisation to help people in Phu Luong and Dinh Hoa communes adopt effective farming methods and accelerate new-style rural area building.
The project will be carried out in Phu Nam 1, Phu Do and Phu Luong hamlets of the province, building model rural areas for tea growing in 2016-2021. It will provide technical training courses and build tea brands for the locality.
In addition, the project will improve distribution and supply of local tea products, raising income for tea growers.
Thai Nguyen authorities are committed to creating favourable conditions to fulfil the project’s targets and turn Phu Nam 1 into a model commune for new rural areas.
