(HBO) – Considering socio-economic development and sustainable poverty reduction as key tasks, over the past years, Hoa Binh province has issued both short- and long-term resolutions and built detailed action plans to carry out those resolutions and central agencies’ directions, thereby greatly helping with poverty elimination.
Farmers in Cao Duong commune (Luong Son district) have
replaced inefficient crops with citrus trees to raise their income.
Hoa Binh has carried out the national target
programme on sustainable poverty reduction by using funding from the central
budget and its own. It has also made use of other resources and the public’s
contributions to programme implementation.
Since 2016, the province has mobilised over 1.18
trillion VND (50.6 million USD) for projects under the national target
programme on sustainable poverty reduction, of which almost 779 billion VND was
sourced from the central budget, 23.8 billion VND from the local budget, and
38.9 billion VND in non-refundable aid from Ireland. Besides, about 66 billion
VND, including contributions in the form of labour and land donation, was
provided by the local populace and organisations.
Organisations have also donated 35 billion VND
to localities and communities in Hoa Binh to equip themselves with cultural,
educational and medical facilities.
Based on the poverty standards for 2016-2020,
there were 50,959 poor households and 24,586 near-poor ones in Hoa Binh in
early 2016, respectively accounting for 24.38 percent and 11.76 percent of all
households in the province then.
Aside from objective causes like natural
disasters, accidents, illnesses or unexpected incidents, some households
suffered from poverty due to the shortage of land, skills, jobs, capital,
knowledge or experience.
Realising that fact, provincial authorities
built plans on poverty elimination for 2016-2020 right at the outset of the
period. During the implementation process, Hoa Binh has benefited from
ministries and central agencies’ directions, the responsible participation of
local departments, sectors and localities, as well as people’s support.
As a result, poverty reduction efforts have
proved fruitful. The implemented programmes and policies have helped improve
the material and spiritual lives of ethnic minorities. Infrastructure has been
developed; people’s demand for housing, residential and agricultural land, and
water satisfied; and education and health care improved.
Additionally, the local political system has
been consolidated thanks to more training provided for ethnic minority cadres.
Targets of the sustainable poverty reduction
programme have been basically achieved. In particular, the poverty rate has
been cut down by 3.16 percent annually on average between 2016 and 2020,
compared to the target rate of 3 percent./.
March 3 marked the first official working day for specialised agencies under the provincial People's Committee following the merger or transfer of functions and tasks from the previous agencies. On this day, the newly merged departments and agencies took proactive steps to arrange personnel, organise workflows, and implement tasks efficiently, ensuring that administrative procedures were carried out smoothly without interruption.
Kim Boi district of Hoa Binh province has thoroughly implemented and adhered to Resolution No. 18-NQ/TW on restructuring the organisational apparatus of the political system towards a streamlined, efficient, and effective direction, ensuring no disruption of work.
By mid-February, Da Bac district completed a plan to streamline its organisational apparatus and personnel work, marking a milestone in efforts to promote restructuring towards a leaner, more efficient organisational system, closely following directives from the Party Central Committee’s Resolution No. 18-NQ/TW, and Conclusion No. 121-KL/TW, and Resolution No. 27-NQ/TU of the provincial Party Committee and Conclusion No. 1103-KL/TU by the provincial Party Organisation’s standing board.
Imbued with President Ho Chi Minh's teaching "The Party cell are the Party’s grassroots foundations. A strong Party cell ensures the effective implementation of the Party’s policies and continuous progress in all tasks," the Party Committee of Kim Boi commune, Kim Boi District, has rolled out the "four-good Party cell" model. The initiative has created a positive change, enhancing the leadership capacity and fighting spirit of Party organisations and their members.
