On April 16, 1984, the Council of Ministers (now the Government) issued Decision No. 156 on the establishment of Binh Chanh commune, including Tu Tra village of Binh Tu commune, Ngu Xa village, Long Hoi village of Binh Phu commune and a part of land of Binh Que commune.

Rising from hardship, Binh Chanh commune actively responded to the renovation initiated and led by the Party, building a homeland with increasingly clear changes in appearance.

The work of agricultural reform and cooperativization was carried out synchronously, cooperatives operated effectively, truly becoming the people's support, production relations were established and gradually improved. People contributed thousands of working days to irrigation, digging and building canals, reclaiming land, and expanding production areas.

If in 1984, the commune's rice yield reached 15 - 20 quintals/ha, by 2023 it will reach 61.46 quintals/ha; average food per capita in 2023 will reach 1,663 kg, while in 1984 it was only 211 kg.

Per capita income in 2023 will increase to 56 million VND. Many economic development models such as pig farms, chicken farms, cow farms, etc. or models of making straw mushrooms and dried vermicelli are effective.

Binh Chanh commune was recognized as meeting new rural standards in 2015. Up to now, 19/19 criteria for advanced new rural communes have been completed and are awaiting appraisal from superiors. This is a great effort to change the face of Binh Chanh countryside.

It is known that Binh Chanh is subject to the arrangement of commune-level administrative units and will be merged into Binh Phu commune. This is expected to be an opportunity to focus investment resources on developing this land with a rich tradition of patriotism.

On the occasion of the 40th anniversary of its establishment, Binh Chanh commune also organized camping activities, folk games, art performances and gave gifts to policy families.
