More resources for remote and ethnic areas in 2015

(VOVworld) – Deputy Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc said that more resources will be given to remote and ethnic areas in 2015.

At an online conference to review ethnic minority affairs in 2014 and discuss plans for this year, he asked localities to focus on personnel training for ethnic minority affairs: “In addition to state support, it is necessary to encourage a spirit of self-reliance among ethnic groups to consolidate unity, reduce poverty, and build new rural areas. It’s important to overhaul ethnic policies, preserve ethnic cultures, eliminate backward practices, and address free migration.”
