This is a brave and pioneering step which helps to
gather renowned scientists around the world, thus contributing to promoting the
nation’s science, PM Phuc told ICISE scientists.
He stressed the importance of science and technology, including basic
and applied sciences, in the country’s development.
The Government leader spoke highly of the achievements of the ICISE,
particularly in holding major international scientific events.
In the context that the fourth Industrial Revolution is posing both
opportunities and challenges to Vietnam,
ICISE should grow more sustainably and effectively in order to foster the
country’s basic science researches and improve its human resources.
Emphasising the importance of applying scientific achievements in
economic development, PM Phuc said he hopes the centre will work to speed up
the application of science technology in the reality.
He also requested the centre to create a better environment to attract
more scientists, and connect more closely with universities and fundamental
science centres, both inside and outside the country.
The leader required the Ministry of Science and Technology, the Vietnam
Academy of Sciences, and Binh Dinh province to create favourable conditions to
bring into full play the intelligence of ICISE scientists.
ICISE was founded by Prof. Jean Tran Thanh Van and his wife, Prof. Le
Kim Ngoc, in 2013. Since then, the centre has held 40 international symposiums,
with the participation of over 3,500 scientists, including 12 Nobel winners.

Nguyen Phi Long, alternate member of the Party Central Committee and Secretary of the Hoa Binh provincial Party Committee, and other officials on April 8 examined some key transport projects, namely the road connecting Tran Hung Dao Road and Dan Chu ward with National Highway 6, the regional connectivity road linking Hoa Binh and Hanoi with Son La Expressway (Hoa Binh - Moc Chau), and the first phase of a road from Luong Son township of Hoa Binh to Xuan Mai township of Hanoi.
Hoa Binh province recorded nearly 20 cases of religion-related wrongdoings in 2023 and the first two months of 2024. However, thanks to their active and effective engagement, relevant agencies and religious organisations have helped the provincial and district-level People’s Committees deal with those cases in a timely manner and in line with legal regulations, thus ensuring religious freedom.
The Hoa Binh provincial People’s Committee held its monthly conference in virtual form on April 2 to review draft documents to be submitted to the standing board of the provincial Party Committee and others under its management along with some other important issues. Vice Secretary of the provincial Party Committee and Chairman of the provincial People’s Committee Bui Van Khanh chaired the event, which was connected with the people's committees of districts and cities in Hoa Binh.
Smokeless 'Hoang Cam' kitchen was a small yet extremely significant initiative of a soldier chef named Hoang Cam in the Hoa Binh campaign in 1951 – 1952. This legendary stove, later named after him, accompanied the nation in the 1954 Dien Bien Phu Campaign, and during the resistance war against the US.
The 15th meeting of Hoa Binh province’s 17th-tenure Party organisation was held on March 26. Secretary of the provincial Party Committee Nguyen Phi Long, Permanent Deputy Secretary of the Party Committee and Chairman of the provincial People's Council Bui Duc Hinh, and Deputy Secretary of the Party Committee and Chairman of the provincial People’s Committee Bui Van Khanh co-chaired the event.
Nguyen Phi Long, alternate member of the Party Central Committee and Secretary of the Hoa Binh provincial Party Committee, chaired a meeting of the provincial Party Committee’s Standing Board on March 21 to review the leadership over the implementation of tasks in the first quarter, identify focal tasks and solutions for the second quarter, and discuss some important draft reports.
