Thus, in 2021, the model of lending through socio-political organizations was expanded to 8 more villages and would be expand to total of 22 villages by the end of 2021 and to all 35 villages throughout Sangthong district by 2024.

In the first 5 month of 2021, the Unit’s income-spending positive effect (+) 570,97 million Kip, debt collection reaching a total of 3,72 billion Kip, equal to 62 % of the 2021 plan.
With these prominent gains, General Director of Nayoby bank signed the document No. 638 /NBB on May 13, 2021 awarding certificate to Sangthong District Service Unit for outstanding performance in lending through socio-political organizations and funds. The unit becomes the first Unit successfully piloting the new lending model adapted from VBSP.
