(HBO) – On June 11, 1948, President Ho Chi Minh called on the entire nation to join a patriotic emulation movement to overcome hunger and illiteracy, and fight against foreign invaders.
Workers of GGS garment company at Da River
Left-Bank Industrial Park in Hoa Binh city join an emulation campaign in
production to achieve the dual goal of COVID-19 pandemic prevention and
control, and economic development.
Hoa Binh has for years considered patriotic
emulation movements a driving force behind the province's socio-economic
development and the successful implementation of targets and resolutions by
Party congresses at all levels.
The provincial People’s Committee has worked to
make such movements suitable to the local conditions, attracting the great
participation of people from all walks of life.
As a result, the province's socio-economic
development and people's living standards have been improved, with its annual
average poverty rate decreasing by 2-3 percent. The quality of health and
education has increased, while cultural preservation and security-defence have
been ensured.
Particularly in the 2021-2022 period, the
province has been seriously affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.
According to Dang Mai Son, Director of the
provincial Department of Home Affairs, Hoa Binh has launched and directed the
implementation of a series of emulation campaigns, therefore realising the dual
goal of pandemic prevention and control, and economic development.
In 2021, the province’s Gross Regional Domestic
Product (GRDP) increased by 3.07 percent, while its per capita income reached
61.5 million VND (2,646 USD). Hoa Binh also added nine communes to its list of
new-style rural areas, bringing the total number to 65. It has so far raised
dozens of billions of VND for a fund for COVID-19 prevention and control, and
donated more than 300 tonnes of agricultural products, rice and food to support
southern provinces in the fight against the pandemic.
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.
