Business structure of the village: Today, Chàng Sơn village is exsiting 2 basis economic forms which are family-based economy and private economy. - The family-based economy: It is considered as common productive form and suitable with land of narrow area of Chàng Sơn. Nowadays, there are 1025/2063 households who specialized in producing the carpentry (account for 49,68% of households). Advantages of this form are utilization of labor force in family. Producers can combine to use land as production place and living of their family. Extent of households have offent 4 - 5 regular labors and hired season labors depend on work situation.

Production conditions of village - Issue of infrastructure: To meeting the development needs of carpentry as well as other industries, infrastructure system has been invested, upgraded by local government. Traffic road system of internal village is extended, concreted. Electricity system for production is invested, upgraded with 3 transformer stations which have total capacity of 890KVA. They have been met ably for production demand, however, production of carpentry still is limited because of narrow internal road and situation of rotational electricity cut. Area of prodution land is lack, average area of household is only 144 m 2 , so productive action of carpentry has many differences. The households have to use their house as well as production place. That causes serious pollution of living space, productive space in village. To solving this problem, the local government has planned 10,73ha of land area of industrial concluster and park depend on resolution of Hà Tây People's Committee (former), Hà Nội People's Committee. It contributes to extends area of production land. However, planning speed is slow, lack of management, so scarcity of productive land area is still common in Chàng Sơn. - Issue of capital resource: In Chàng Sơn, loan demand for expanding and investing in production equipment is very large. Besides self-funding, the almost of households have to borrow through bank system. Loan amount ranges from 50 millions VND to many billions VND depends on production extent of households. Today, the anti-inflation policy has limited households’s ability of capital loan, impacted to production rate of carpentry. - Issue of labors: Labor in village is rich in the number, its quality is raised increasingly; Labor structure has been strongly shifted toward increasing the small industry - basis construction and service - trade, reducing the agriculture. In 2005, propertion of small industry – basis construction is 65% and 5% in the service – trade and 30% in the agriculture. Labors join in making the carpentry is account for over 80%. They include many labor parts from artisans to women and children. They are paid different wages depend on workmanship and job’s level. Average income of a labor is 18 millions VND/year. However, lack of labors who have high cultural standard, technological standard caused disadvantages for applying the new technology in productive management and business toward centralized model. - The provision and use of input materials: In Chàng Sơn village, materials of production are imported by companies, enterprises in village. Nowadays, there are about 20 companies, enterprises specialized in provide kinds of wood. They import millions of wood m 3 . Main supply is domestic market and other countries such as Laos, Thailand, Combodia, Germany. etc. This creats a close relation between supply enterprises with productive households, enterprise with enterprise to brings mutual economic benefits. Moreover, it helps to develop Chàng Sơn traditional carpentry toward the industrialization and modernization. - Management issue of village: The almost of productive households and private enterprises in Chàng Sơn are developed by forms of spontaneous, fragmentary and lack of management. So, coherence of production units is not high in village. It does not establishs any association of handicraft village to gathers artisans who has enthusiasm for traditional carpentry. It develops carpentry toward sustainable trend, improves income for villagers. 2.2.2. The cultural life of community: In the Chàng Sơn village, production element and cultural element have always a close relation. Therefore, if we want to understand about Chàng Sơn traditional carpentry village, we need to understand on cultural elements around it. 2.2.2.1. Relationship between carpentry with other jobs in village: It is established on 2 basic aspects of economy and society. Through, we can see dominant and covering natures of carpentry to others in village. It facilitates to develop together with other jobs and forms a bond between handicraft with handicraft, handicraft with belief and cultural values in village. Cohesion of community is presented through roles of solving the local employment for villagers, raising income, improving the quality of life and restricting the situation of free migration. 2.2.2.2. The relationship among carpentry and culture, belief of the villagers: In this part, we do not describe elements of tangible culture and intangible culture but also focus research it in the relation with sustainable development of village. - System of tangible culture: It is occupational heritage values of old artisans such as community hall, pagoda, etc and considered as a embodiment of talent and sophistication of Chàng Sơn’s artisans. We will deeply study on meaning of community hall and Van Vo temple in villagers’ life. Chàng Sơn community hall: Previously, Chàng Sơn had 2 community halls which are Cả community hall and Bé community hall. Today, these village has only relic of Cả community hall. It was built thousand of years ago and accosiated with legend on Pho San ancestor who was invited to built temples on the top Non Tan moutain by Saint Tản Viên. To now, it has been restored, built again; Its architectural space is arranged in the style of the Chinese character đinh ( ), contained the talent of Chàng Sơn handicraftmen. Moreover, đình is also a place to worship the village deity (thành hoàng làng) Tản Viên Sơn Tinh - job’s ancestor of Vietnamese – and system of tiền hiền, in which has Phó Sần ancestor. Văn Võ temple: On architectural aspect, Văn Võ temple has not high artistic value but it is considered as a cultural address honoring the tradition of education and occupation. Its system of worship characters is tiền hiền, hậu hiền of confucianism and celebrities of village. Văn Võ temple offents show incense-burning ceremonies to remembers Phó Sần carpentry’s ancestor on 15/1 (Lunar) per year. - Intangible culture: System of intangible of Chàng Sơn is associated with consciousness and belief of career. It is showed through festival, belief in worshipping ancestors of carpentry and traditional water puppetry. The traditional festival of village is held mainly on 18/7 (lunar) per year. It includes 2 main part which are the ceremony and the assembly. This combination has created a close, linked relation for villagers and it is also crystallisation of religious ideology around the form of collective worship – village deity – in folk mind. What we want to emphasize is festival more or less related the belief in worshipping ancestors of carpentry (Saint Tản Viên, Phó Sần). About this belief, Chàng Sơn is one of handicraft villages which worship job’s ancestor. There seems to be the overlapping existence of three carpentry's ancestors: 1. Saint Tản Viên; 2. Phó Sần; 3.
