3/9/14
The pilot
project of recruiting young intellectuals who volunteer to participate in
developing rural and mountainous areas in the period of 2013-2020 (referred to
as Project 500) was approved by the Prime Minister in Decision No. 1758 / QD
-TTg dated September 30, 2013. Along with project that 600 young intellectuals will
work as Vice Chairman of poor communes under the Governmental Program 30a, the
Project 500 are getting the attention of so many young people because they want
to devote wisdom, youth, contributing to the construction and socio-economic development
in particularly poor areas.
The aim
of the Project is to strive to 2015 to recruit 500 young intellectual elite
with university degrees to work in 500 communes of especially difficult region
about socio-economic conditions. Intellectuals are arranged according to human
needs of each commune to help committees, government and local people to
develop economic and social situation, contributing to social alleviation,
poverty reduction and building new agricultural villages. At the same time,
through practical activities they can strive, grow up and creat resources for
local officials. The Project 500 focuses on the recruitment of young
intellectuals as civil servants in particularly difficult and mountainous areas.
Number of localities is more than Project 600 with 34 provinces, 163 communes
in all of country. This project is supported in nature. In the long term, the
province must actively plan staff training.
Relating
to conditions and criteria of candidate selection, Mr. Vu Dang Minh, Director of
Youth Affairs Department (Ministry of Interior) said: Selected candidates will
not be irrespective of formal or in-service qualifications, with clear history
for a long-term goal to become a source of training for local staffs. The process,
a and manner of selection will ensure equal opportunities for all candidates if
they wish to register; ensure fairness, openness and transparency in the
selection. The file is sent to the Interior Ministry or provinces to sum up
then agree to latch the number of records. In the interview meeting, the ministerial
delegation will establish monitoring and interviews to ensure openness and
transparency. Results of each provinces will be sent to Ministry to be
appraised the ability and virtue then the last selected candidate is going refresher
training.
Mr. Vu
Dang Minh added, the scheme gives priority to candidates with a stable permanent
residence in that province from 3 years upwards. But the selection process will
create equal opportunities for all young intellectuals. Candidates in all
regions of the country will be able to enroll in other provinces. According to
information from the Interior Ministry, records began to be received from April
2014, however, ending time of receiving records is different in each province,
some provinces can end the recruitment time to November 2014, so the candidates
can contact directly to the provinces where need to recruit applicants.
Before
the apprehension of many people about the status of social intellectuals after
a period of time working in communes will come back to the districts. Mr. Vu
Dang Minh said: The conditions and criteria of selecting process is closed and under
monitoring mechanisms. Therefore, it would not happen the situation that
descendants of influential families are given to work then bought back to
districts after a period of time... Furthermore, after recruitment is
completed, the members will be continued under training. After 3 months of
training, they will continue be reselected. If they are unqualified people, the
governments at all levels will choose others. In the course of work, if the
young intellectuals do not complete the task, they will be forced to liquidate
contracts.
Mr Sen Ly
Chinh, Vice President of Ha Giang provincial People's Committee said: Ha Giang
province is a particularly difficult mountainous province at border, when
implementing Project 600, many young country deeply concerned and 16 young
outside the province were admitted. Experience from Project 600 shows that, one
of the challenges for the young intellectuals is that voice; contribution
effort in their work may be limited as most of the incumbent officials in commune
were older, with stagnant and obsolete thinking. In order to overcome these
problems, leaders at communes assigned and appointed officials to help young
intellectuals approach a new work environment, adapt to the customs and
practices, enhance the native language; at the same time, regularly organizing
quarter briefings between management agencies at district and commune; to
facilitate the dedication of young intellectuals to complete their task. Still
according to Mr. Sen Ly Chinh, for Project 500, Ha Giang province also received
the attention of young intellectuals in the country; someone called, sent
e-mail to exchange and register for recruitment ...
Recently,
the Prime Minister has written to urgently request Interior Ministry building
and submit the legal basis to the Prime
Minister for implementing this Project. After the end of the scheme, the members
successfully completed task will be considered in the layout management
leadership positions, becoming civil servants on the needed arrangements of the
localities.

Overcoming their first tough moments, they have enthusiastically implemented socio-economic development projects, gradually alleviating local poverty.

Intellectuals are those who have diverse wisdom and foresight, who apply their intellect and forward-looking visions for the purpose of awakening society.
Vietnamese word for intellectual, “trí thức”, is a combination of “mind” and “awaken”.
There are three key factors in nurturing intellectuals: knowledge; ability and willingness to awaken society.
Intellectuals are agents of change, particularly in those parts of the world where the unjust and aberrant behaviour are the norm.
In their own ways, intellectuals everywhere around the world are making effective contributions to improving society in meaningful ways.
