(HBO) – Hoa Binh province has been complimented by the Government Committee for Ethnic Minority Affairs for its effective support to poor communes. Despite modest material support, the responsibility shown by provincial authorities is considerable, reflecting the great attention of the Party and State, the cohesion among agencies and units as well as Party committees, administrations and people in difficult communes. Departments, agencies and units have implemented various practical activities to help communes facing extreme difficulties build and consolidate the political system, ensure defence and security and carry out many training and technology transfer activities, thus building production development, poverty reduction and new-style rural area building, and presenting gifts to the needy.
In the
2014-2017 period, the province had 6 communes and 4 villages completing the
Programme 135’s objective on support to poor localities. Of which, Dong Buoi
village in Truong Son commune, Luong Son district and Buc village in Tu Ne
commune, Tan Lac district finished the programme in 2015, while two villages of
Roi and Binh Tien in Dan Ha commune, Ky Son district and six communes of Yen
Hoa in Da Bac; Phuc San and Pa Co in Mai Chau district; An Binh and Yen Bong in
Lac Thuy district also concluded the programme in 2016. In 2017, the province
has had 99 communes and 99 villages supported by Programme 135 under the Prime
Minister’s Decision No. 900/QD-TTg dated June 20, 2017 and Decision 414
/QD-UBND dated 11/7/2017 of Minister-Chairman of the Committee for Ethnic
Minority Affairs.
Thanks to investment sources, the socio-economic
development in communes of special difficulty in Lac Son district has been
promoted.

was upgraded as part of the new-style rural area building programme.
Of the 99 poor communes, 15 have registered to
complete the new-style rural building programme’s criteria by 2020, which was
approved by the provincial People's Council. Therefore, it is necessary to
assign new-style rural area building tasks to agencies and units, especially
those who are responsible for the programme.
Meanwhile, it is a need to adjust the decision
to assign the tasks of helping poor communes in line with the plan approved by
the provincial People's Committee. Based on that, from now to 2020, the
agencies and units have to help the communes to develop detailed plans to
determine what need to be done to achieve the targets in building new-style
rural areas.
It requires a considerable amount of investment
for the support of poor communes from now to 2020. Under the Prime Minister’s
Decision No. 1865 dated January 23, 2017, the communes will receive a total of
712 billion VND, or 7 billion VND each.
Meanwhile, the provincial People's Council has
approved an investment of 4 billion VND per commune in 2020, raising total
investment for a poor commune to 12 billion VND. A detailed plan of action is
needed to make the investment effective. Based on the results of the actual
review, the commune should choose priority areas to invest to ensure the
efficient use of resources.
In addition, the annual budget of hundreds of
billions of VND is also added to the building of new-style rural areas. At the
same time, it is necessary to change production in a sustainable manner. Based
on the orientation and objectives given by the provincial People's Council,
People's Committee, departments and agencies, there should be a plan to support
difficult communes to solve the rural environmental problems. Coordination
should be made in the construction of model roads and residential areas, and
the implementation of the movement of keeping environmental sanitation. It can
be believed that by 2020, the province will complete with high quality the
new-style rural area building programme, resulting in fundamental changes in
supporting poor communes./.

Mutual love and support is a long-standing tradition of Vietnam. In any circumstance, the Vietnamese people always uphold the traditional spirit of staying united and supporting one another to surmount difficulties and adversities. Continuing this fine tradition, in the face of the 1945 famine, President Ho Chi Minh initiated the "Rice jar to save the hungry” movement and took the lead in implementing this campaign by abstaining from one meal each week to save rice for those without food. His example of morality and affection for people has been and is being followed by residents across Hoa Binh province.
