(HBO) – Local people in the mountainous commune of Van Son in Tan Lac district of Hoa Binh province for the last few years have developed tourism activities to improve their incomes besides traditional farming.
Improved roads in Ngo Luong commune, Tan Lac district, help boost local socio-economic development.
As the provincial Party Committee and People’s Committee
approved a resolution and programme on tourism development in mountainous
communes, residents are excited about the support that they will get to develop
community-based tourism models, and sustainable tourism, and increase their
incomes.
As one of the four ancient Muong regions and the cradle of the famous Hoa Binh
culture, the unique culture and peaceful landscape of Tan Lac district – former
known as Muong Bi - is an important resource to help the district develop
sustainable tourism.
Besides tourism, the district's authorities last year concretised the
resolutions of the Party Central Committee and the province, and issued
resolutions, schemes, plans, and action programmes to comprehensively implement
tasks in building the Party and political system.
Specifically, the district issued resolutions and directives on agricultural
and rural development, restructuring crops and livestock, attracting
investment, and supporting investors.
Production areas were planned associated with the new-style rural area, for
example, vegetable/fruit growing areas are developed in highland communes,
aquaculture growing areas in Suoi Hoa commune, pomelo-growing areas in communes
along road 12B, and urban areas in Man Duc town and Phong Phu commune.
In 2022, the district fulfilled or exceeded 14 out of 16 socio-economic goals
and saw total social investment of 2.54 trillion VND, and income per capital
reached 35.5 million VND.
In 2022, red-fleshed pomelo grown in Tan Lac district was first exported to the
UK, opening up opportunities to build a commodity production area linked to the
consumption market.Up to now, the district has 240 hectares of
red-fleshed pomelo meeting VietGap and organic farming standards.
The district is home to "Khai ha" (Summer opening) festival which was
recognised as a national cultural heritage. Meanwhile, Mo Muong is being
proposed for recognition as intangible cultural heritage of humanity. This is a
great potential and advantage for the district to develop tourism.
The district actively directed land clearance work for tourism projects.
Dinh Anh Tuan, Secretary of the Tan Lac District Party Committee, said that the
district is comprehensively implementing the Party and political system
building work, upholding the role of cadres and party members in performing
political tasks, strengthening land management, site clearance, and removing
difficulties for investment projects.
The district has also paid much attention to implementing solutions to preserve
and develop Muong Bi culture in association with building a new countryside,
improving the quality of people's lives./.
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.
