Building a set of criteria for new-style rural area for the 2026-2030 period: Some issues arising in the new context

Abstract

    To concretize the goal of building new-style rural area according to Resolution No. 26-NQ/TW dated 5 August 2008 of the 10^th Party Central Committee on agriculture, farmers, and rural area, the Prime Minister issued the National set of criteria for new-style rural area for the 2010-2020 period (Decision No. 491/QD-TTg dated 16 April 2009). The content of the set of criteria for new-style rural area covers many fields, from planning, infrastructure, economy, culture, society, environment to the political system, security, national defense... Through different periods, the set of criteria has been constantly improved, and has now become the "backbone" of the National Target Program on Building New-Style Rural Area (the Program).
