A leader of the Department of Home Affairs - the standing
body of the provincial Council for Emulation and Commendation - stressed that
patriotic emulation movements launched by central agencies and Hoa Binh
province have created strong changes to cadres, Party members and people’s
awareness and actions, encouraging them to make efforts to fulfill political
and socio-economic development tasks. Those campaigns have also provided
conditions for exemplary individuals to bring into play their role in promoting
emulation movements.
During 2016 - 2021 period, the province formed and
multiplied 125 exemplary models in different social aspects. Among them, 62
were introduced to central press agencies for popularisation.
At the conference, exemplary individuals shared their
experience in building effective livelihood models such as a cultivation model
applying VietGAP standards of Nguyen Trung Kien in Doc Lap commune and a plant
and livestock farming production model using high technology of Nguyen Thi Tam
in Tan Thinh ward (Hoa Binh city), a chicken farming model of Trinh Quang Tuan
in Phu Thanh commune (Lac Thuy district), a homestay tourism service model of
Sung Y Mua in Pa Co commune (Mai Chau district), an organic orange cultivation
model of 3T Farm Cooperative in Cao Phong town (Cao Phong district), and a
temperate vegetable production cooperative in Quyet Chien commune (Tan Lac
district).
On this occasion, the provincial Council for Emulation and
Commendation presented gifts to exemplary individuals and organised a
fact-finding trip to a guava farming model applying VietGAP standards in Yen
Mong commune of Hoa Binh city./.

Situated at the gateway to the Northwest, Hoa Binh province has a population of over 900,000, including about 540,000 of working age. It is home to 6,000 businesses and production facilities, providing employment for over 100,000 workers. The remaining workforce is engaged in informal jobs, works in enterprises outside the province, or contributes to agro-forestry-fisheries. Additionally, around 3,000 workers are employed abroad.
The Hoa Binh provincial People's Committee has issued Decision No. 2767/QD-UBND announcing the rankings of departments, agencies, districts and Hoa Binh city in the Public Administration Reform Index (PAR) and the Satisfaction Index of Public Administration Services (SIPAS) in 2024.
The cultivation of Dam Xanh fish (Bangana lemassoni), a unique fish species, has seen remarkable growth in Mai Chau district, thanks to its high economic value and effectiveness. Initially concentrated in Van Mai commune, farming has now extended to four other communes, namely Mai Hich, Mai Ha, Chieng Chau, and Son Thuy. These areas benefit from pristine underground water flowing from mountain crevices, providing ideal conditions for raising this specialty fish.
