(HBO) – To proactively cope with extreme weather, especially the recent prolonged heat waves, Lac Son district’s forest ranger force has coordinated with relevant agencies to well implement regulations on forest protection and management and prevention of forest fire.
In the first half of 2018, the district’s forests have been protected with no violations recorded.
Lac
Son district’s forest rangers and the forest guard team of the district’s Tu Do
commune have held regular patrols.
The district’s forest rangers have tightened monitoring of local
forests and paid special attention to protecting the core forest areas and
preventing forest fire.
They have also worked with local authorities and agencies to hold
educational activities to raise awareness of regulations on forest protection
and development among individuals and organisations.
During the first 6 months of this year, the Lac Son forest
protection bureau has provided training on forest and forestry-related
regulations for over 3,800 people in the district. In addition, they have
cooperated with local media agencies to publish news on local activities to
protect and expand forests and produce forestry products. The bureau also encouraged
local people to develop forest-based economic activities, thus reducing poverty
and contributing to local efforts of building new-style rural areas.
The local forest ranger force, police and military command have
together adopted a mechanism for coordination in maintaining social order and
security in the district. The forces also built a plan on conducting joint combat
drills combined with forest fire fighting across the district’s communes and
towns.
The forest rangers have conducted regular inspections of forestation
activities in the province and shared experience in forest management.
Furthermore, they have partnered with local judicial body to
promptly settle forest land-related disputes and complaints in the communes of
Lien Vu, Binh Hem and Yen Phu and cooperated with forest rangers of
Cuc
Phuong
National Park and Pu
Luong Nature Reserve in management and protection of forests in contiguous
areas.
Some 360 forest guard teams, comprising of 1,500 members, have
been set up at 29 communes and townships in Lad Son district. The forest
rangers have collaborated with the local administrations to guide local people
on how to proper clear land for farming and prevent fire from spreading to the
forest. They also regularly clean up dead plants and maintain anti-fire
corridor in high-risk areas. Local people have been also urged to keep fire
fighting equipment in their homes.
Currently, Luong Son district counts 905 business establishments operating in industry and handicraft, helping generate jobs and stable incomes for local labourers.
Hoa Binh scored the highest points in two out of the eight indicators of the Public Administrative Reform (PAR) Index ranking in 2023 that the Ministry of Home Affairs announced on April 17.
A working delegation from Hoa Binh province led by Deputy Secretary of the provincial Party Committee and Chairman of the provincial People’s Committee Bui Van Khanh is attending a programme to popularise Vietnamese products in the US and Canada on April 20-28.
Anyone found to be encroaching upon the forest, even if it is just one bamboo shoot, will face penalties. This commitment has been unanimously added into the covenant of Bua Cau hamlet, Hung Son commune in Kim Boi district, to protect the forest.
