The Hoa Binh provincial People’s Committee has directed departments, sectors and localities to effectively carry out land policies and projects under the national target programme for socio-economic development in the mountainous and ethnic minority-inhabited areas so as to handle the shortages of housing, and residential and cultivation land in the province.
Bui Van Chien, a local resident in Bai hamlet in Kim Boi district’s Kim Lap commune receives financial support of 40 million VND (over 1,500 USD) to build his new house.
For the 2019-2020 period, more than 4 billion VND (over 158,500 USD) was allocated for the construction of water supply facilities and over 109 billion VND for the improvement of agricultural land and job changes, benefiting more than 18,000 local people.
Since 2021, the province has provided water supply and tanks for nearly 15,000 families and invested in 37 public water supply facilities. Particularly, the local administration launched a 450-day campaign to eradicate temporary and dilapidated houses for households with difficulties across the province.
According to Do Duy Sam, an official of the provincial Board of Ethnic Affairs, under the national target programme on sustainable poverty alleviation for the 2021-2025 period, the province outlined a plan to provide housing support worth over 77 billion VND for 2,157 families. To date, it completed the construction of houses for 1,122 families and repair of homes for 707 others.
Meanwhile, Hoa Binh also developed a plan to assist 3,807 families by mobilising resources from the national target programme for socio-economic development in the mountainous and ethnic minority-inhabited areas for 2020-2025.
Given more than 3,900 households in need of housing support, the Board of Ethnic Affairs will enhance inspection and supervision over the selection of beneficiaries and address difficulties and urgent needs of the poor and ethnic minority people in a timely manner.
Hoa Binh province has harnessed its rich cultural heritage and human potential to forge the path towards sustainable development in the new era.
In Hoa Binh province, 11 traditional craft villages with more than 400 small-scaled production households have put in place a clean and green production model, establishing new standards for sustainable development. Waste collection sites and wastewater treatment facilities have been meticulously managed by local residents.
To make it easier for the residents to handle administrative procedures, Yen Bong Commune (Lac Thuy District) has identified the administrative reform as one of its key tasks. By implementing a range of synchronized solutions, the commune has seen the positive changes in the administrative reform, meeting the needs of its people.
Mai Chau district has firmly established itself as a standout destination on Vietnam’s tourism map, attracting both domestic and international visitors with its breathtaking landscapes, rich ethnic culture, and warm hospitality. However, beyond its natural and cultural charm, a secure and well-managed tourism environment has added to Mai Chau’s appeal.
As Vietnam enters a new phase of economic and administrative reform in 2025, Hoa Binh province is stepping up its efforts to streamline governance, boost economic growth, and attract investment.
The Hoa Binh provincial People's Committee held its monthly meeting on March 26 to review the progress of key projects, assess budget revenue and public investment disbursement, provide feedback on draft documents for submission to the provincial Party Committee's Standing Board, and discuss other important matters related to the committee's governance activities.
