Revolutionary Development in Tuyen Duc-Dalat
A portrait sheet headed 'Activities of Rural Construction Cadres in Tuyen-Duc Province, Dalat' sets out a policy of uniting the efforts of people and government to build the economy, farming, culture and society for the people's happiness. Five photographs show cadres and villagers digging an irrigation ditch, building a bridge, building a road and watering a vegetable plot, each with a caption in Vietnamese and a second language. The tell is the abstract programme statement above a run of work photographs that show only constructive activity.
