During the meeting, Khanh briefed the guest on

livelihoods and incomes for residents in disadvantaged and remote areas.
For her part, Rabbitte congratulated Hoa Binh on its
achievements in implementing poverty reduction programmes and projects in
recent years, especially during the time of impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.
She said that her visit to Hoa Binh aims to further
enhance cooperation with the locality, towards realising the target of poverty
reduction of Hoa Binh, especially in ethnic minority areas.
On the occasion, the Irish delegation made field
trips to a number of places in Da Bac district.
Hoa Binh received 79.3 billion VND (over 3.4 million
USD) in aids from the Irish government in the 2017 – 2020 period. The money was
used to invest in 66 transport works, four irrigation projects and one school
in the districts of Kim Boi, Da Bac, Lac Son, Yen Thuy, Tan Lac and Mai Chau,
benefiting 10,000 local households.

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.
