Since the start of November, communities across Hoa Binh province have joyfully organised activities marking the great national solidarity festival. Twenty years since it was first celebrated, the festival’s vitality and great significance have gained a foothold in people’s spiritual life, thereby helping enhance the strength of the great national solidarity.
Residents in Cu hamlet of Tu Son commune, Kim Boi
district, sing and dance in celebration of the great national solidarity
festival.
Tran Duc Truong, Vice President of the
provincial Vietnam Fatherland Front (VFF) Committee, said the great national
solidarity festival is celebrated in residential areas, hamlets, and villages
from urban to mountainous and remote areas. Regardless of their ethnic groups,
religions and social strata, all people have engaged in the festival.
On November 9, Nguyen Hoa Binh, Politburo
member, Secretary of the Party Central Committee and Chief Justice of the
Supreme People’s Court, joined residents on Re street in An Nghia commune, Lac
Son district, in the great national solidarity festival.
The official congratulated locals on their
comprehensive results and expressed his hope that they will bring into play the
achievements gained in 2023 and stay united to develop their community into a
rich, beautiful, and civilised area, thereby further tightening Party
committees and administrations’ connectivity with people, pushing ahead with
patriotic emulation campaigns and movements, and upholding fine cultural
traditions.
Truong noted that in all localities, the festival
comprises ceremonial and festive activities. The ceremonial part looks back on
the history of the VFF, reviews the results obtained by a residential area in a
year with a focus on the implementation of the "All people stay united to build
new-style countryside and civilised urban areas” campaign, commends and rewards
outstanding collectives and individuals, discusses targets and tasks, and
launches the emulation movement for the following year. Meanwhile, the festive
part features a variety of cultural and sport activities imbued with ethnic
groups’ identities such as dancing, tug of war, "con” (cloth ball) throwing,
and volleyball.
The festival aims to inspire the spirit of
emulation and promote people’s consensus to effectively carry out socio-economic
development tasks, he said, adding that many meaningful and humanitarian
activities also take place on this occasion such as transfer of new houses to
disadvantaged families, presenting gifts and savings accounts to poor
households, and cleaning up roads and the environment.
The great national solidarity festival has
become a tradition practiced annually amid the founding anniversary of the
Vietnam National United Front. It shows the VFF’s creativity in reforming
working methodology and centring activities on the grassroots level to build up
and enhance the great national solidarity bloc. The festival is truly a big
anniversary of the entire people and a contribution to the solidarity and the
building of prosperous, civilised, and happy communities.
In the spirit of "Party members go first, the people follow”, all households of Party members in the Doan Ket sub-region in Da Bac town, Da Bac district, voluntarily removed gates and fences, and donated land when the road expansion project passed through their properties. Inspired by their example, 68 households in the sub-region quickly followed suit, contributing over 1,400 sq.m of residential and perennial cropland to widen the main road through the residential area. The exemplary role of Party members in Doan Ket stands as a shining example of studying and following President Ho Chi Minh’s thought, morality, and lifestyle.
The Hoa Binh provincial People's Committee held a monthly meeting on May 29 to assess the implementation of socio-economic development tasks in the first six months of 2025, the progress of key projects, and some other important issues.
During his lifetime, President Ho Chi Minh always expressed his deep affection and special concern for children and youth. He once emphasized: "Caring for and educating children well is the responsibility of the entire Party and the entire people”; "First of all, the family (i.e. grandparents, parents, siblings) must do this job well”. "the Party Committees…, the Children’s Committee, the Youth Union, the education sector, and all related organizations must have specific plans to ensure children grow healthier and more progressive”. His teachings has been remaining valuable and serving as the guiding principles in the work of protecting, caring for, and educating children. In line with this ideology, Hoa Binh Province has continuously been prioritizing and investing resources in the well-being of children in recent years.
Mr. Nguyen Phi Long, the alternate Member of the Party Central Committee and Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee chaired the meeting of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee to provide opinions on several investment projects within the province. There was the attendance of Ms. Bui Thi Minh, the Permanent Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee and Chairwoman of the Provincial People’s Council; Mr. Bui Đuc Hinh, the Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee and Chairman of the Provincial People’s Committee and other members of the Standing Committee; the leaders from other departments, agencies, and some localities.
The Standing Board of the Vietnam Fatherland Front (VFF) Committee of Hoa Binh province held a meeting on May 28 to honour outstanding village elders, village heads, and reputable individuals from local ethnic minority and religious communities.
In mid-May, the provincial Museum organised an exhibition named "Duoi la co Dang Cong san Viet Nam quang vinh” (Under the flag of the glorious Communist Party of Vietnam). This meaningful activity took place in the joyful atmosphere to celebrate the country's major holidays and the Party congresses at all levels for the 2025-2030 term, towards the 14th National Party Congress.
