(HBO) – President Ho Chi Minh used to say that: "Emulation is patriotic, patriots must emulate, those who emulate are the most ardent patriots.” Following the late leader’s teaching, Ky Son district of Hoa Binh province has promoted the patriotic emulation movement in a practical manner, thus receiving a warm response from local officials, civil servants, labourers and people.


Staff of the Public Administrative Centre of Ky Son district have improved the reception and handling of administrative procedures for local people and organisations.

 

In agro-forestry-fishery production, farmers across the district have stepped up intensive farming, production and business activities, and restructuring of crop and animal husbandry to develop advantageous products. Responding to emulation movements, they have enhanced the application of science and technology in agricultural production and sought new ways to raise productivity, output, and product quality and value.

Meanwhile, emulation movements associated with the building of new-style rural areas have expanded strongly, attracting the participation of local officials, Party members, people and other social forces. One of the typical examples is the drive to donate land, labour and construction materials for the construction of rural infrastructure facilities.

Residential areas have emulated one another in building civilized hamlets and villages with good security and order. Meanwhile, each family has made efforts to ensure clean homes, beautiful gardens, healthy environment and civilized hamlets meeting new-style rural area building standards.

Many role models in building new-style countryside have been popularized and multiplied, thus contributing to the successful implementation of political and socio-economic development tasks and accelerating new-style rural area building. In Ky Son district, four communes have fulfilled all 19 new-style countryside building criteria, one commune meeting 15 criteria, and four communes meeting from 10 to 14 criteria.

Administrative reforms have also been enhanced so as to strongly improve the work performance and attitude while serving people of officials, civil servants and public employees. The emulation campaign in this field has also helped increase the local State apparatus’s management efficiency towards satisfying people and businesses. In 2017, Ky Son took the lead in the administrative reform index among the district-level localities of Hoa Binh province, up two places from the previous year. Hop Thinh and Yen Quang communes and Ky Son town are outstanding examples of administrative reforms in the district.

In 2017, local per capita income reached 47.5 million VND (over 2,000 USD), surpassing the set target by 2.5 million VND. Nearly 56.47 billion VND (2.5 million USD) was collected for the State budget, up 53.4 percent from the planned revenue. While the household poverty rate decreased to 6.24 percent, the rate of near-poor families fell to 4.44 percent./.
