Sông Công

South-eastern Asia

Sông Công is a ward in the southern part of Thái Nguyên, Vietnam, and the article says it inherited its name from the former Sông Công City. Its growth began in the 1970s, when the hilly area in the northwest of Phổ Yên District along the left bank of the Công River was developed into a large-scale mechanical industrial centre, and most of the workers who settled there came from provinces of the Red River Delta. Mỏ Chè Township was established in 1972, and in 1985 Sông Công Town was established from Mỏ Chè Township and Cải Đan Commune of Phổ Yên District and the communes Tân Quang and Bá Xuyên of Đồng Hỷ District. It first consisted of three wards, Mỏ Chè, Lương Châu and Thắng Lợi, and three communes, Cải Đan, Tân Quang and Bá Xuyên, and Phố Cò Ward was added by a decree of 10 April 1999.
