(HBO) - The People’s Committee of Mai Chau district and the GNI organization of the Republic of Korea on November 25 signed a Memorandum of Understanding on cooperating to implement the KIA Green Light Project in Vietnam.
Representatives
from the People’s Committee of Mai Chau district and the GNI sign the MoU.
It is estimated that 23.9 tonnes of waste are
discharged in Mai Chau district each day. The district already has a waste treatment
facility in Xam Khoe commune, which processes 6.8 tonnes of garbage collected
from six out of 17 communes and towns in the district. The facility cannot meet
the demand for waste sorting and treatment in the district due to the big
volume of waste. Therefore, the new project is hoped to improve the
environmental sanitation, create sustainable livelihood and enhance the quality
of life in the district.
The project focuses on four main contents, which
are upgrading the waste treatment facility in Xam Khoe, building a playground
for children using recycled materials, launching an environmental protection
awareness campaign, and setting up and running a group to develop recycling as
a livelihood.
The project is being implemented from September
this year to December 2021 at a total investment of 379,774 USD (8 billion
VND).
At the MoU signing ceremony, signing parties
pledged to ensure waste treatment, contributing to improving the environment,
protecting public health and creating green, clean and beautiful landscape in
residential areas in the district./.
The Standing Board of the Hoa Binh provincial Party Committee met on March 18 to review and guide major investment projects aimed at boosting local socio-economic development.
The air is thick with the hum of drills and the clatter of machinery as the Hoa Binh – Moc Chau expressway takes shape amid the rugged terrain. Welding sparks illuminate the faces of workers, and concrete mixers churn relentlessly, laying fresh pavement on the newly-carved road. The construction site buzzes with a palpable sense of urgency, particularly in Hoa Binh province where the expressway's future is being forged.
The northern province of Hoa Binh, with over 467,000 hectares of natural forest and more than 100,000 hectares of production forest, holds significant potential for carbon credit market development.
Replacing substandard houses with more sturdy ones by June 30 is the direction given by Nguyen Phi Long, alternate member of the Party Central Committee and Secretary of the Hoa Binh provincial Party Committee, at a meeting held in early March by the provincial Steering Committee for the programme to eliminate temporary and dilapidated houses for the needy.
Recognising digital transformation as an inevitable trend, authorities and agencies in Hoa Binh have made great efforts in the work by focusing on three core pillars - digital government, digital society, and digital economy, resulting in enhanced competitiveness, improved investment climate, and ensured economic and social welfare.
In recent years, Da Bac district has improved administrative reform with a one-stop shop mechanism, streamlined inter-agency procedures, and a shift to digital platforms. These efforts have enhanced public service efficiency and contributed to local socio-economic development.
