(HBO) – Over the past days, communities across Hoa Binh province, from rural to urban areas, have been in the celebratory atmosphere of the 90th anniversary of the Vietnam Fatherland Front (VFF). Via these celebrations, people of different ethnic groups such as Muong, Thai, Kinh, Tay, Dao, and Mong together strengthened the neighbourliness and promoted self-reliance to contribute to local development. Provincial leaders have also joined local residents in these events.

Over the past years, VFF committees at all
levels in Hoa Binh have paid attention to reforming their activities which have
centred more on the people so as to improve the effectiveness of their activities.
The provincial VFF Committee has directed its
units at lower levels to closely follow their localities’ political tasks. The
VFF congresses at different levels for the 2019-2024 tenure selected 6,116
members, including 4,108 from ethnic minorities and 100 religious followers,
who all play a significant role in encouraging locals to actively engage in
patriotic emulation campaigns and movements.
VFF committees in Hoa Binh have also coordinated
a number of movements and campaigns that have proved fruitful like "All people
unite in building new-style rural areas and civilised urban areas” and
"Vietnamese people prioritise Vietnamese goods”.
In the peak month for the "Fund for the Poor” in
the province this year, organisations and individuals donated more than 6
billion VND (260,000 USD) to the fund. Thanks to that, local poor families have
been assisted to build new houses, repair existing ones, and develop livelihoods
for sustainable poverty reduction in recent years.
In emergencies like the COVID-19 outbreak or
floods, the role of the VFF has been shown even clearer via its pooling of
joint efforts to fight the pandemic and support the settlement of disasters’
consequences.
The VFF has also performed its role in
developing self-management models in communities.
In addition, VFF committees have actively worked
with relevant agencies to promote grassroots democracy and the people’s right
to mastery via supervisory activities, feedback, and giving opinions about the
Party and administration building.
Between 2015 and 2020, local VFF units and
socio-political organisations carried out 3,660 supervisions that focused on
pressing issues of public concern like the implementation of policies for
ethnic minorities, the building of new-style countryside, mineral management,
the implementation of the resolution on the political system’s apparatus reform
and re-organisation, administrative reforms, and the provision of aid for
people affected by COVID-19. After that, recommendations were issued to help
the provincial People’s Committee and related agencies to take settlement
measures.
All-level VFF committees have also contributed
opinions to draft documents submitted to Party congresses, authorities’
decisions, and development plans of the province.
By making unceasing reforms of their activities,
VFF units in Hoa Binh have increasingly improved their stature and established
themselves as the centre for promoting the people’s solidarity, democracy, wisdom,
and strength, thereby helping the province to achieve set targets./.
