# Bình Long trên đường xây dựng nông thôn (Binh Long in the Rural Construction Effort)

A portrait sheet under a red headline shows four captioned photographs of Binh Long province: cadres walking out to the hamlets, the province chief meeting Montagnard villagers, villagers tending a water buffalo and a well, and the province chief handing 2,000 piastres to a poor villager for house repair. Each caption credits the programme or an official with the benefit shown. The tell is the selection: only completed or ongoing assistance is pictured, with the named officials present in each scene.
