More market-oriented production is key factor to lift off from poverty, advises President

(KPL) President Choummaly Sayasone has called on people in Saysomboune and Hom districts, Vientiane province, to focus on boosting the use of local potentials for the development of their market-oriented production, especially agriculture and animal rearing.
The President’s comment came during his two-day working visit to Vientiane province on 10-11 May.
The President and his delegates were warmly welcomed by Vientiane Provincial Party Secretary, Mr Chansy Phosikham, and local authorities.
He stressed that the market-oriented production was necessary for people in society--more markets more income.
Mr. Choummaly, who is also Party Secretary General, was informed of the achievement in socio-economic development, especially the grassroot political building and village construction - development village cluster.
He has expressed appreciation to the efforts by local and central official authorities in disseminating the Party and Government’s political guideline on the national construction and development to local people for their profound understanding.
“In the recent period, the province has showed that the local development has made much progress, particularly in animal raising and social order,” he said. “However some weak points should be improved.”
In order to improve the living condition, people should pay attention to the market-oriented production and further study pasture tending for animal grazing.
However, a local veterinary service centre should also be set up to monitor and prevent the outbreak of animal diseases.
He called on authorities to further inspect the movement of land and forest allocation for people for effective use of agricultural land.
Hopefully, it will help improve the living condition of poor people in remote areas.
“I am very happy to see local people’s better living condition, security in development village clusters, children access to health service, primary education and water supply,” said the President.
