# Chương trình Xây Dựng Nông Thôn đã giúp đỡ đồng bào như thế nào? (How the Rural Construction Program Helps the Civilian Population)

A bilingual sheet asks in its headline how the Rural Construction Program has helped the people, and answers with a fish-farming project at Ban Me Thuot: a 964,000-piastre allocation, 100 fishermen trained and over 9,000 fingerlings issued. Four photographs show smiling crowds at the fish farm gate, a demonstration of carp-raising and pond building. Cheerful ordinary villagers stand for the programme's reception, and the figures are the sheet's own.

INLAND FISHERIES DEPARTMENT
BANMETHUOT FISH FARM

The Fisheries Development Programme with the Banmethuot Fish Farm aims to help and guide fishermen to raise fish to increase the daily food of their families in 1966.
The Rural Construction Programme has authorised the Fisheries branch a budget of 964,000$ for development, including digging more fish ponds to raise fish production to supply fishermen, and subsidising resident fishermen so they can develop their trade.
From 1966 the fish farm has sent Cadres to the countryside to instruct fishermen in fish-raising methods; the farm has also held a training course on fish-raising for 100 fishermen, and has issued more than 9,000 fingerlings to the people.

Translation is FRAME's own literal rendering of the Vietnamese only. The Rhade (Ê Đê) lines are marked, not read; the one Rhade headline is copied letter for letter as an aid to later translation, but not translated. 'Cán Bộ' is rendered 'Cadres' as the period term for programme workers. 'Ngư dân' is 'fishermen'. The currency sign '$' is as printed. Small diacritic marks in the dense body paragraph are faint at this resolution.
