(HBO) – Learning and following the moral example of late President Ho Chi Minh has come into reality and created important momentum for Chi Thien underprivileged commune (Lac Son district) to reap practical outcomes in socio-economic development.

Chi Thien commune belongs to region 135, about
12km from the centre of Lac Son district. Before 2013, the locals met a lot of
difficulties in life. Essential infrastructure, especially transport and
electricity, did not receive synchronous investment. Secretary of the communal
Party’s Committee Bui Van Tan said defining the significant implementation of Directive
No.3 of the Politburo on promoting learning and following the morals of President
Ho Chi Minh to socio-economic development, Chi Thien has paid attention to
communication campaigns among officials, Party members and people. The commune
has focused on encouraging people to join the new-style rural area building and
promoting the leading role of officials and Party members in the field as well
as pushing ahead with the economic restructuring to reduce poverty.
Tan named outstanding families in rural
development. For example, families of Bui Van Vinh and Bui Van Mich from Cai
hamlet have cleared "doi” trees – which brought them millions of Vietnamese
dong each year – to give land for the expansion of rural roads. Some households
from Dang 2 hamlet have also cut down dozens of trees they had grown for years,
which are considered as their valuable assets, to make roads wider. Notably is
the family of Bui Van Mon who cut down over 20 "doi” and "lat” trees while
families of Bui Van Khang and Quach Van Dung cleared million-VND-worth "doi”
trees in service of the new style rural area building efforts.
Raising chicken in recent years has helped many
households in Chi Thien have stable income. Bui Van Hue from Dang 1 hamlet, an
outstanding youngster receiving the Luong Dinh Cua award of the Ho Chi Minh
Communist Youth Union in 2015, developed this model, which got many households
in the commune involved in raising thousands of chicken a year.
Family of Bui Van Sy from Nang hamlet has a
garden of 2.3 hectares to raise chicken. Sy said his family sells over 4,000
chickens each year, earning a profit of 25,000-30,000 VND each chicken, which
leads to a stable income of over 100 million VND annually.
Chi Thien commune has also shifted 30-40 percent
of rice fields into growing maize and sugarcanes and other plants of high
economic value. Prior to 2016, only 15-20 percent of households in Chi Thien
had hygienic toilets. Now the figure has reached 50 percent and is expected to
increase to 80 percent by 2018./.

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.
