Walking between memories…

Talking over a cup of coffee every morning at this time, instead of discussing agricultural product prices, Dak Lak people pay close attention to the news and discuss each name of their commune and ward that was just announced in early July. And of course, in this construction process, there are also new names, sometimes making us need time to get used to and remember...

The new Dak Lak map still has many names and places bearing the mark of history, culture and people's lifestyle such as Buon Ma Thuot, Quang Phu, Tan Lap, Ea Kao... but they are identified on another geographical map with a more strategic vision. This is expected to bring about clear effects in streamlining the administrative apparatus, building a government closer to the people, optimizing resources and promoting socio -economic development.

In the flow of that development, many people in Dak Lak today cannot avoid deep nostalgia for old things. It is also normal, because in life, everyone has a private corner to store the sweet and bitter flavors they have tasted, calling the name of the memory.

The merger is opening a new journey with many aspirations for the future, but it is also a time for everyone to look back and find familiar commune and district names, places that hold so much love and nostalgia..., when time has not yet covered the moss of the old days. Each street name and old district name are not only place names on the map, but also a part of flesh and blood, an inseparable part of memories in the memory that reigns in the soul of each person, so that every time they think about it, they are moved and moved with emotion, even though the years will cover it with dust. The most familiar and memorable is probably the name "street". The strange thing about Dak Lak people is that, from any locality in the province, going to Buon Ma Thuot City (old) is called "going to the street". The charming call "street" is like a designation to express what is both close, familiar and modern, very busy only in Buon Ma Thuot City.

"The Street" with the symbol of the Buon Ma Thuot Victory Monument (Ban Me Six-Way Intersection) is majestic, bustling with the Buon Ma Thuot book and coffee street, romantic with Phan Dinh Giot and Dam San streets shaded by green trees and also has the nostalgia of "four times a day of the siren" resounding in the old Electricity Department campus. The sound is so familiar that it is boring to many generations of people, but when absent, they feel nostalgic.

Those who live in the juncture of this history will keep the memories deeply engraved in their hearts, as witnesses to tell their children and grandchildren about the transition between the era of independence and the era of national growth. So that the next generation, even if they cannot be named, can see the old streets and districts as they were in the past, but will still feel the breath of Dak Lak, rich in tradition, national soul and strong growth in the future.

A new day has knocked on the door, history is turning a page, the future is opening. Dak Lak - Phu Yen , two lands with their own potentials and strengths will be the foundation to exploit the maximum potentials and advantages of each region, creating momentum for the strong rise of the new Dak Lak province. The force is strong, just waiting for the right mind to be ready to move forward.
