Mr. Truong Ngoc Dong, Chairman of Tra Phong commune said that the authorities initially planed to build a separate house for Thanh and Lang but they finally decided to support reconstruction of Tri’s house to facilitate him to take care his father and his brother. With nearly VND100 million ($5,000), the local authority has built a three-room house with a kitchen for this family. They will also grant agricultural land for them.
