(HBO) - Despite having a low starting point, in recent years, the Party Committee and administration of Tan Lac district have focused on directing and mobilising resources for new-style rural building, aiming to bring changes to the countryside and improve the quality of the lives of local residents
Rural roads in Thanh Hoi
commune (Tan Lac district) are upgraded to meet the requirement of
socio-economic development.
Thanh Hoi commune boasts a vast area and a dense population. In
the past, local people's lives faced a lot of difficulties. However, the
new-style rural area building has achieved positive results thanks to the
engagement of the whole political system. In 2019, the commune met standards
for new-style rural areas, and it is currently building advanced new-style
rural areas.
Bui Thi Bich, Deputy Secretary of the commune Party Committee, said Thanh Hoi
has mobilised all resources to build new-style rural areas, especially
promoting the role of cadres and party members and the people in calling on
local residents to donate land and work days to the construction of public
works.
The commune converts inefficient cultivation areas to grow fruit trees and
raise livestock, creating jobs for local people. Up to now, the income per
capita of the commune has reached 58 million VND (2,400 USD) and the rate of
poor households stood at 6.2%.
The new-style rural area building has created positive changes not only in
Thanh Hoi but also other communes along National Highway 12B as well as
disadvantaged ones including Phu Vinh, Phu Cuong, Van Son, Ngo Luong and Quyet
Chien. The quality of lives of local people has also been improved.
The district has effectively carried out new-style rural area building-related
work as planning, developing production and gradually exploiting the locality’s
potential.
The new-style rural area building has been associated with investment in
infrastructure to serve agricultural and rural development such as repairing
dams, lakes and canals and applyingscientific and technological advances
to animal husbandry and farming.
Over the past three years, the district has converted about
200ha of inefficient rice cultivation land to grow other crops.
The district has over 200 hectares of fruit trees certified with
VietGAP and organic standards and six units were granted planting area codes.
There are two cooperatives and a collective group participating in production
links with Tan Lac grapefruit, sugarcane and chili export products with Fusa
Organic Agriculture joint Stock Company.
According to Bui Duc Hien, head of the district’s Division of Agriculture and
Rural Development, by the end of July, Tan Lac district had nine out of 15
communes meeting new-style rural area standards. There were 13 outstanding
residential areas and 41 model gardens by the end of 2022.
The district is reviewing the new-style rural area criteria in line with the
2021 - 2025 criteria set. In the coming time, the district will mobilise
capital for infrastructure development to fulfill these criteria. It will also
promote restructuring of the agricultural sector towards improving production
value associated with building new-style rural areas.
Attention will be
paid to forestry development associated with sustainable poverty reduction,
enhancing the implementation of the One Commune One Product Programme,
expanding community-based tourism along with new-style rural building, aiming
to improve the quality of people's lives.
In recent years, the education and training sector of Hoa Binh province has achieved notable accomplishments, with a strong focus on spearhead education, which has yielded significant results.
With just over a month left until the school summer break, students are eagerly anticipating a period of rest and fun after a year of academic pressure. To provide a healthy environment for the physical development, in addition to the classes that foster talents and enhance the academic knowledge, sports and physical activities continue to attract a large number of children and teenagers.
On April 17th, Hoa Binh Provincial Museum organized a program to promote and introduce the outstanding values of "Hoa Binh Culture” at the Boarding Secondary and High School for ethnic minority students in Mai Chau District.
The Hoa Binh College of Technical Technology, in collaboration with the Hoa Binh Technical and Economic College and the provincial Association of Literature and Arts, hosted a gathering on April 15 to celebrate Laos’ traditional Bunpimay (New Year) Festival 2025 and debut the new book "Nguoi Muong o ban Don” (Muong people in Don village).
In the millennia-long history of national construction and safeguarding, people of all ethnic groups in Hoa Binh have been united and closely bound together to overcome all difficulties and challenges, standing alongside the entire Vietnamese people throughout the history of building and defending the country.
Living green is a healthy, positive, and sustainable lifestyle that not only helps protect
the environment and quality of life but also conserves natural resources and ecosystems.
Among the many ways to embrace this lifestyle, reducing plastic consumption is one of the most impactful.
