HO CHI MINH CITY, VIETNAM, Jul 20, 2023 – (ACN Newswire via SEAPRWire.com) – Global renewable energy developer, service provider and solar distributor, BayWa r.e announced the successful completion and handover of the Khau Dang Commune Cultural House in Lang Son Province, Vietnam. This exemplifies BayWa r.e.’s unwavering dedication to actively supporting and enriching the communities in which it operates, as well as nurturing enduring relationships with the community it serves.
BayWa r.e., in close collaboration with the Van Quan district people’s committee, supported the construction of the commune cultural house located at Khau Dang hamlet, Trang Cac Commune. The new commune cultural house will be able to foster community cohesion, facilitate annual general meetings and accommodate diverse activities, benefitting 500 people in more than 94 households, mostly Tay and Nung people who belong to the ethnic minority group.
The 360 square metre (m2) facility is a substantial increase from the previous culture house, which could only host 25 individuals. The project started construction in March 2023 and was officially handed over on 6 June 2023.
Nam Le, General Manager, BayWa r.e. Vietnam, said, “The commune cultural house would never have been realised if not for the continuous efforts made by the local district and villagers in overseeing this project. BayWa r.e. is committed to addressing the needs of the locals through regular communication and consultation with the local authorities and communities to ensure that all voices are heard. Vietnam is an important market for us, and we believe that we should not only build facilities for environmental sustainability, but we should also focus on creating long-lasting relationships within and with the local communities.”
Chu Tien Hoang, Chairman of Trang Cac Commune People Committee, said, “We would like to thank BayWa r.e. for the precious support to our community. The new commune cultural house will encourage residents in the Khau Dang Village to organise cultural, sports and entertainment activities, helping them to bond and improve their quality of life with recreational activities. This initiative also meets the needs of the Vietnamese government’s National Targeted Program on New Rural Development under criteria six, cultural facilities, where we can hold larger events for the entire commune.”
