It also coordinates with relevant agencies to organize training courses in doing business and building new business models in high-value chains.
It will offer a venue for members to discuss plans on how to organize production and offer new services to enhance the value and competitiveness of their business, thus helping create jobs and stable income for members.
The chapter's revenue, contributions of members and mobilization of capital must be tracked to ensure transparency in both finance and the distribution of profits among them. Members of the chapters are entitled to participate in activities, especially training to improve knowledge and skills, and join exchanges to learn from local and international experiences.

Hoa Binh has taken measures, focusing on removing barriers in terms of mechanism, policy, infrastructure, and upgrading technical infrastructure facilities serving tourism and the quality of human resources, to promote tourism development in the Hoa Binh Lake area.
Over the past time, Da Bac has deployed measures to lure more domestic and foreign visitors to the locality, aiming to turn tourism into the district’s economic spearhead.
Covering an area of over 52,000 hectares spanning districts of Mai Chau, Tan Lac, Cao Phong, Da Bac, and Hoa Binh City, Hoa Binh lake has strong potential for tourism development. In recent years, thanks to the attention of local Party Committees and authorities as well as support from international organisations, the advantages of tourism in the lake area have been utilised.
Mai Chau is a mountainous district and home to many ethnic groups such as Thai, Muong, Kinh, Mong, Dao, and Tay with distinctive cultural identities, creating a diverse and unique cultural treasure. Aware of its advantages, the district has paid attention to the preservation and promotion of ethnic groups’ cultural values so that culture will become a leverage for tourism and contribute to socio-economic development and life quality improvement.
