The captions say Kinh and highland people alike are producing to build the national economy, that camp residents no longer depend on charity, and the footer reads 'Lam Dong self-help projects 1966: a rich people, a strong nation.' The tell is the pairing of upbeat captions with scenes of labour and the closing slogan, with no shortfalls shown. ## Propaganda techniques used in this poster [Glittering generalities](https://propagandaarchive.org/techniques/glittering-generalities/) [Card stacking](https://propagandaarchive.org/techniques/card-stacking/) ## Text on the object Original (Vietnamese) · read from the image, not independently checked ``` TỈNH LÂM ĐỒNG ĐỒNG BÀO KINH CŨNG NHƯ THƯỢNG ĐANG HĂNG HÁI SẢN XUẤT ĐỂ GÓP PHẦN VÀO CÔNG CUỘC XÂY DỰNG NỀN KINH TẾ QUỐC GIA.
