(HBO) – The armed forces of Hoa Binh province have always attached importance to caring for war veterans, revolution contributors and policy beneficiaries, said Sen. Lt. Col. Bui Dinh Hung, deputy head of the political department of the provincial Military High Command.
Officers and soldiers of
Hoa Binh’s armed forces help Dinh Thanh Tam, a resident in Doi hamlet of Hien
Luong commune (Da Bac district), build a house.
Sen. Lt. Col. Bui Dinh Hung said local armed
forces have stepped up activities to realise gratitude and care for policy
beneficiaries and revolution contributors. They have also accelerated the
implementation of the State’s benefits and policies for all those who devoted
themselves to national defence and international missions.
This can be seen in efforts by military units at
all levels in speeding up the consideration, compilation and verification of
dossiers for beneficiaries under Prime Minister’s Decision No. 62/2011/QD-TTg
on benefits and policies for those who took part in the national defence wars and
international missions in Cambodia and Laos but already returned from military
service.
In the first half of 2018, the province’s
Military High Command finalised dossiers and proposed the High Command of
Military Region 3 assess the injuries of 46 persons. As a result, 45 of these
have received decisions to enjoy war invalids’ benefits.
Apart from policy beneficiaries, military
agencies have regularly visited and presented relief to war invalids and
martyrs’ families.
They have also called for donation to the
Gratitude Fund. In 2017, officers and soldiers of the local armed forces
donated nearly 200 million VND (8,700 USD) to the fund. The Hoa Binh Party
Committee and Military High Command launched a donation campaign on the
occasion of 70 years of the province’s armed forces and the War Invalids and
Martyrs Day last year. The over 900 million VND (39,100 USD) collected in the
campaign was spent on building 13 houses for policy beneficiaries./.
After three years of implementing the Politburo’s Conclusion No. 01-KL/TW on continuing performing Directive 05-CT/TW on enhancing the learning and studying of President Ho Chi Minh’s thought, moral example and lifestyle, Lac Thuy district of Hoa Binh province has discovered many effective models and practices, creating a spillover effect in the local community, helping to develop a clean and strong Party Organisation meeting the requirements in the new situation.
The Hoa Binh Elderly Association and the provincial Department of Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs on May 7 held a working session with a visiting delegation from the Japanese Embassy and sponsors of a local project on reducing senior citizens’ income and health vulnerabilities in Vietnam (VIE071).
Seventy years have passed, but the memories of the Dien Bien Phu campaign in 1954 have never faded in the mind of veteran Ly Van Ngoan from Dong Tien hamlet, Phu Thanh commune, Lac Thuy district.
Over recent times, in Mai Chau district, there have been many typical examples of studying and following President Ho Chi Minh's ideology, ethics, and lifestyle in all aspects of the social life, contributing to successfully implementing the tasks of socio-economic development, and ensuring social welfare and defence and security in the locality.
Officials of Hoa Binh province led by Bui Van Khanh, Vice Secretary of the provincial Party Committee and Chairman of the provincial People’s Committee, along with others from the provinces also taking part in a programme on promoting Vietnamese localities in the US and Canada, visited and had a working session with the Consulate General of Vietnam in Houston on April 24 (local time). The delegation was welcomed by Hoang Thuy Duong, Consul General of Vietnam in the city, and staff members of the consulate.
