(HBO) – In the recent past, rural and mountainous areas in Hien Luong commune of Da Bac district in Hoa Binh province has gained a facelift while local tourism, lake farming, agriculture, and forestry have also been growing, which has helped improve local people’s living conditions. These outcomes are attributable to the commune's Party Organisation’s leadership over the implementation of the Party’s resolutions on socio-economic development.
The Party Committee and administration of Hien Luong
commune (Da Bac district) have been working to grasp the local socio-economic
situation.
The Party Organisation of Hien Luong commune
consists of 10 Party cells with 174 members. For the past many years, it has
established its role in directing the implementation of measures for
capitalising on local potential and advantages to improve people’s life.
Apart from disseminating and seriously carrying
out the directives and resolutions issued by higher-level Party Committees, it
has promoted the implementation of different programmes, including those on
advanced new-style rural area building, poverty elimination, settlement of
pressing problems, and economic development. It has also organised regular
meetings and dialogues between Party Committee and administration leaders and local
residents.
As a result, from a disadvantaged commune, Hien
Luong has managed to identify its development orientations, boost connectivity
in aquaculture, expand community-based tourism, restructure crop and animal
farming, and develop auxiliary jobs for residents. In 2019, it was recognised
as a new-style rural area and is working to meet advanced criteria. Meanwhile,
aquaculture and community-based tourism have been thriving. Ke village has
become a popular community-based tourist site among visitors. Many villages
have moved to carry out crop restructuring, develop livestock farming, and
facilitate aquaculture, which have become stable sources of income for local
residents.
Per capita income currently stands at 38 million
VND (over 1,600 USD) per year, and the household poverty rate has been brought
down to 16.7 percent. In 2021, the commune built 13 roads to local villages,
with the State providing funding for material purchase and people donating land
and labour.
Nguyen Dang Giap, Secretary of the Hien Luong
Party Committee, said in the time ahead, the commune’s Party Organisation will
press on with making reforms, directing the implementation of socio-economic
development tasks, mobilising resources for agricultural, aquaculture, and
tourism development, preserving traditional cultural values of ethnic groups,
and building new-style rural areas, thereby helping to further improve people’s
life./.
