More than 60 years ago, President Ho Chi Minh
launched the ‘tree-planting festival’. Luong Son authorities asked authorities
at all levels and socio-political organisations to raise public awareness of
the aim and meaning of the festival as well as forest planting and protection.
This year, the district aims to grow more than
30,000 dispersed trees, and ensure that forests fill over 80 percent of
assigned forestry land and forest coverage is kept stable at 42 percent.
The improvement of forest planting productivity, quality and efficiency must be
in line with the protection of current forest resources and prevention of
deforestation and illegal exploitation.
Efforts should be made to restructure the
forestry sector and increase share and value of the forest economy in a bid to
raise quality of people’s living conditions and sustainable development of
Luong Son.
After the launch ceremony, the leaders of the
province and Luong Son district planted trees at the relic.
Extending his Tet wishes to the standing board
of Luong Son’s Party Committee, Tuan highly valued outcomes obtained by the
district in the recent past, voicing his hope that it will pay due attention to
forest planting for economic and tourism development.
As a key region of Hoa Binh, Luong Son was
requested to tap on its strengths, focus on meeting requirements of 4-tier
urban area and strive to become a town by 2025 as planned./.
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.

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.
