(HBO) – On June 11, 1948, President Ho Chi Minh called on the entire nation to join a patriotic emulation movement to overcome hunger and illiteracy, and fight against foreign invaders.

Workers of GGS garment company at Da River
Left-Bank Industrial Park in Hoa Binh city join an emulation campaign in
production to achieve the dual goal of COVID-19 pandemic prevention and
control, and economic development.
Hoa Binh has for years considered patriotic
emulation movements a driving force behind the province's socio-economic
development and the successful implementation of targets and resolutions by
Party congresses at all levels.
The provincial People’s Committee has worked to
make such movements suitable to the local conditions, attracting the great
participation of people from all walks of life.
As a result, the province's socio-economic
development and people's living standards have been improved, with its annual
average poverty rate decreasing by 2-3 percent. The quality of health and
education has increased, while cultural preservation and security-defence have
been ensured.
Particularly in the 2021-2022 period, the
province has been seriously affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.
According to Dang Mai Son, Director of the
provincial Department of Home Affairs, Hoa Binh has launched and directed the
implementation of a series of emulation campaigns, therefore realising the dual
goal of pandemic prevention and control, and economic development.
In 2021, the province’s Gross Regional Domestic
Product (GRDP) increased by 3.07 percent, while its per capita income reached
61.5 million VND (2,646 USD). Hoa Binh also added nine communes to its list of
new-style rural areas, bringing the total number to 65. It has so far raised
dozens of billions of VND for a fund for COVID-19 prevention and control, and
donated more than 300 tonnes of agricultural products, rice and food to support
southern provinces in the fight against the pandemic.
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.
