As of March 30, 2026, based on proposals from communes and wards, the Department of Ethnic and Religious Affairs had counted a total of 1,294 households in need of replaced houses in 2026. Of these, 1,145 are poor households under the National Target Programme for Socio-Economic Development in Ethnic Minority and Mountainous Areas (1,065 needing new houses and 80 repairs); 128 poor households under the National Target Programme for Sustainable Poverty Reduction (117 new houses and 11 repairs); 14 households of revolution contributors (12 new houses and two repairs); two households affected by natural disasters (new houses); and five households whose parents participated in the resistance war and were exposed to Agent Orange/dioxin (three new houses and two repairs).

Speaking at the event, the Vice Chairman of the provincial People’s Committee emphasised that eliminating temporary and dilapidated housing is a crucial and urgent task, contributing to ensuring social welfare across the province.

He requested relevant departments and sectors to prioritise mobilising social resources to support the programme in 2026. The implementation must follow the principle of “clear assigned persons, clear tasks, clear responsibilities, clear authority, clear timelines, and clear outcomes.”

At the same time, efforts should be enhanced to raise awareness and reach public consensus, striving to complete the goal of eliminating temporary and dilapidated housing across the province within 2026.
