A working team from the Hoa Binh Party Committee led by Nguyen Phi Long, alternate member of the Party Central Committee and Secretary of the provincial Party Committee, inspected the preservation and promotion of the cultural values of the Muong culture and the making of planning for a reservation space for the Muong culture in Phong Phu commune of Tan Lac district on March 6.
Nguyen Phi Long, alternate member of the Party Central Committee and Secretary
of the Hoa Binh Party Committee and the working team, inspect the design of
planning for the Muong culture preservation space at Luy Ai village, Phong Phu
commune of Tan Lac district.
In order to preserve and promote the cultural identity of the Muong ethnic
minority community in the district, Tan Lac has issued many resolutions, plans
and projects aiming to enhance the awareness of local officials, Party members
and the community in the work.
Along with maintaining the values of traditional houses, costumes and
traditional practices of Muong people, the locality has paid great attention to
traditional Muong festivals such as Khai ha festival, Ke Pagoda festival, and
fishing festival.
However, the efforts have faced many difficulties, including the inefficient
use of resources in some projects and shortcomings in optimising mechanisms and
policies as well as cultural heritages for tourism development.
The district has asked for support from the province in building the Muong
cultural space project in Luy Ai commune, as well as support to artisans and
practitioners of typical cultural heritages of the Muong community.
Long and the working team visited Ai hamlet in Phong Phu district, in which
cultural values and living spaces of the Muong people are being maintained.
In 2008, Ai hamlet was recognised by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and
Tourism as a typical traditional village of ethnic minority groups and a
village representing the Muong group. In 2027, as part of a project to pilot
the merging and completion of residential areas of Hoa Binh, Ai and Luy
villages were merged into Luy Ai village with more than 200 households and 930
people, 97% of whom are from Muong ethnic minority group.
The former Ai village is home to 19 out of the 34 traditional tilt houses,
becoming a community-based tourism site.
The Muong culture preservation space is designed on 125 hectares with a tourism
service centre, hotels, farms, festival spaces, homestays, resorts, residential
areas, and nature exploring areas.
Long lauded the efforts of the Party Committee, administration, and people of
Tan Lac and relevant agencies in protecting and promoting traditional values of
Muong people.
He asked Tan Lac to coordinate closely with departments, sectors and agencies
to ensure the quality and long-term vision of the planning, with special
attention to maintaining the traditional culture of the Muong people and
preserving the landscape, architecture, customs, lifestyle, and cultural
heritage of the community in the former Ai hamlet, and expanding tourism
spaces. Alongside, the locality should design policies to mobilise resources
for the construction of infrastructure system and sustainable exploitation of
values of the Muong culture for sustainable tourism development and improving
locals’ livelihood, he stressed.
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.
