However because of the shortage of local budget expenditure we would like to call investment capital to upgrade the schools and supplement the medical equipment.
Hung temple (Den Hung) is a beautiful landscape - the national historical vestige where Vietnamese memorizes Hung King because of their contribution to country 4000 years ago. Phu Tho wants to call investment capital so as they can serve tourist's demand in domestic and overseas.
The parallel with the economic development Phu Tho has invested to build SOS village to look after the defective children by the war the orphan children... Phu Tho would like international organizations kindness people overseas Vietnamese to assist the means of health service the matters as well as the expenditure for children so as they can early enter to community. 00:42, 1 November 2006 (UTC)00:42, 1 November 2006 (UTC)~~°00:42, 1 November 2006 (UTC)193.206.186.101
