Nguyen Thi Cam Phuong, Permanent Vice Chairwoman of the Hoa Binh People’s, Council and leaders of the provincial Vietnam Fatherland Front Committee present flowers to Thung residential area on the occasion of the festival.

Thung residential area is home to 95 households with 457 people. Responding to the campaign of "all people stay united to build new-style rural areas and civilised urban areas”, local residents have helped one another to promote economic development, get out of poverty, and become rich, while donating land and working days to build infrastructure works. Currently, the local per capita income has reached 33 million VND (1,298 USD) per year, up 3% compared to 2023.

Over the years, 100% of the households in the residential area have adhered to the regulations on civilised lifestyle practices in weddings and funerals, and refrained from spreading superstitions or engaging in practices related to them. In 2024, the residential area has 76 out of the 95 households meeting the criteria for cultural families. It has raised funds to support the construction and repair of seven temporary or dilapidated houses for poor households.

Addressing the opening ceremony, Phuong congratulated Thung residential area for its achievements in implementing the campaign. She asked the Party Committees and administrations at all levels and the Vietnam Fatherland Front Committee and its member organisations in the locality to promote the spirit of great national solidarity, effectively implementing the Party and State's policies and laws. Each family should maintain and promote good traditions, building a happy family, upholding the bond of neighbours, working together to protect the environment, and preserving the cultural residential area title, thus contributing to the construction of a more civilised and prosperous homeland.

On this occasion, leaders of the provincial People’s Committee, VFF Committee, and the Party Committee and People’s Committee of Tan Lac district as well as departments, sectors, and organisations presented flowers and gifts to the residential area.

Within the festival’s framework, delegates attended a ground-breaking ceremony for the construction of a house presented to Bui Tien Mai, a local of the area.
