The People’s Committee of Hoa Binh province on May 16 held a conference to honour outstanding intellectuals for their contributions in 2025.
Bui Thi Minh, Permanent Deputy Secretary of the provincial Party Committee, Chairwoman of the provincial People's Council presents flowers to local intellectuals.
The event was attended by Professor Dang Vu Minh, former
Chairman of the National Assembly’s Committee for Science, Technology and
Environment, and Honorary President of the Vietnam Union of Science and
Technology Associations (VUSTA); Dr. Phan Xuan Dung, President of VUSTA; Bui
Thi Minh, Permanent Deputy Secretary of the provincial Party Committee and
Chairwoman of the provincial People’s Council; along with representatives from
VUSTA, local departments, agencies, and over 220 distinguished delegates
representing local intellectuals.
In recent years, the contingent of intellectuals of Hoa Binh have shown
remarkable proactiveness, creativity, and dedication in conducting research and
proposing solutions for local socio-economic development. They have played a pivotal
role in education, healthcare, science and technology, arts and culture,
helping to raise public awareness, develop human resources, and contribute
significantly to the province's social life, national defence, and security.
At the conference, delegates discussed several key topics, including enhancing
the role of intellectuals and science and technology in enterprises, the
implementation of the Politburo’s Resolution No. 57-NQ/TW, harnessing the
intellectual potential of retired experts in scientific consultancy and
policymaking, and promoting green, sustainable agriculture to boost Hoa Binh’s
socio-economic advancement.
In his address, Dung congratulated Hoa Binh’s intellectuals, noting that those
honoured serve as shining examples in scientific research and innovation,
making impactful contributions to both their respective fields and society at
large. He affirmed that VUSTA would continue to support and facilitate the
activities of its Hoa Binh chapter, contributing meaningfully to both provincial
and national development.
Speaking at the event, Minh extended congratulations and commendation to the
intellectuals for their valuable contributions. She emphasised that Hoa Binh
has maintained a strong tradition of unity and innovation in governance, achieving
notable success in political and socio-economic goals, particularly in
delivering on the strategic breakthroughs outlined by the 17th Provincial Party
Congress, especially in developing human resources, creating jobs, and
enhancing labour productivity.
The official underscored that these achievements reflect the concerted efforts
of the Party, administration, and people of Hoa Binh. Intellectuals, she added,
have played a crucial role in these successes through research, policy
proposals, and initiatives promoting sustainable development and preserving the
cultural identity of the Muong ethnic group while nurturing a healthy cultural
environment. Regardless of their fields, intellectuals remain a driving force
in the province’s progress.
Minh called on local intellectuals to continue fostering a spirit of
creativity, dedication, and responsibility, contributing ideas and efforts to
build a prosperous and sustainable homeland—one that harmoniously integrates
economic growth with cultural, social, scientific, technological, and
environmental development.
On this occasion, the provincial People’s Committee also launched a movement
encouraging intellectuals to actively engage in study, research, and innovation
in their professional and productive endeavours.
On May 15, the Hoa Binh Steering Committee for Science, Technology, Innovation, and Digital Transformation launched the "Digital Literacy for All” movement. The event was held both in-person and virtually, connecting provincial authorities with district-level Party committees and local communities across communes, wards, and townships.
The Standing Board of the Hoa Binh provincial Party Committee has held a conference to announce the provincial Party Committee’s decision about the merger of Hoa Binh Newspaper and the provincial Radio and Television Station, along with the Standing Board’s appointment decisions.
After the historic victory on April 30, 1975, which liberated the South and reunified the country, the whole Vietnam embarked on a new mission — promoting peace and reconstructing the nation with century-defining projects. On the fierce Da River, over 30,000 engineers, sappers, and construction workers battled against rocky mountains and raging floods to achieve a remarkable feat. The Hoa Binh Hydropower Plant, the largest of its kind in Southeast Asia at that time, officially began generating electricity, lighting up the North and ushering in a new era of industrialisation.
Muong Dong in Kim Boi district, one of the four major Muong regions in Hoa Binh province, is harnessing its revolutionary legacy and cultural heritage to drive socio-economic transformation.
Throughout April, the joyful atmosphere of the 50th anniversary of the Liberation of the South and National Reunification spread nationwide. Together with the whole country, residents in Hoa Binh city also expressed their patriotism through meaningful and practical actions.
When requesting personal document verification and certification service at the one-stop-shop service section of Dong Tam Commune in Lac Thuy district, Nguyen Thanh Long, a resident of Dong Bong village, was both surprised and pleased with the professionalism and attitude of civil servants working there.
