Bui Van Tinh visits and learns about the baking-free brick production of the
Nam Son Co. Ltd in Doan Ket commune, Yen Thuy district.
The stone carving village in Phu Thanh commune
was established in December 2016. Thirty local households have taken part in
stone carving activities. The craft creates stable jobs for more than 100
people who earn an average per capita income of 10 million VND (440 USD) each
month.
Meanwhile, the non-baked brick and floor tile
production line of the Nam Son Co. Ltd began operating in 2015 and has a designed
capacity of 1 million bricks per year, providing jobs for over 40 people with
monthly per capita income of 4.5 – 5 million VND (198 – 220 USD).
Secretary Bui Van Tinh highly valued activities
of the stone carving village in Phu Thanh commune, asking the administration of
Lac Thuy district and relevant departments and sectors to boost communication
activities to make the village and its products widely known.
Meanwhile, the banking-free brick and floor tile
production of the Nam Son Lo. Ltd, which also plans to make artificial sand, is
a new model that needs to be enhanced, he said, asking the firm to diversify
products, ensure occupational safety and health, prevent fire and explosion,
and protect the environment.
The provincial People’s Committee will issue
mechanisms to encourage the production and sale of artificial sand, he noted.
Regarding the production and consumption of
agricultural products, the official told Yen Thuy authorities to base on its
soil conditions to re-zone off farming areas in association with the preservation,
processing, sale and future export of local agricultural products. He also
requested stronger examination and management of contracts for production and
consumption cooperation to ensure legitimate interests of both businesses
Over recent years, the Farmers' Union of Mai Chau district has implemented numerous specific programmes and activities to support its members in developing products under the One Commune One (OCOP) programme. These efforts have contributed to enhancing local agricultural branding, increasing goods value, and improving incomes and living standards for residents.
Since 2022, the Hoa Binh Department of Education and Training has provided advice for the provincial People's Committee to issue Plan No. 219/KH-UBND on November 17, 2022, which outlines the implementation of a project titled "Enhancing the application of Information Technology (IT) and Digital Transformation in Education and Training for the 2022–2025 period, with a vision to 2030.” As of now, the local education sector has made significant progress in IT adoption and digital transformation.
Hoa Binh allocated over 30 trillion VND (nearly 1.18 billion USD) to develop infrastructure systems in ethnic minority and mountainous areas during 2019 - 2024. Priority was given to transport and irrigation infrastructure; markets; schools; medical stations; communal houses; and power grid, telecommunication, radio, and television systems.
The Hoa Binh provincial organising committee for anniversary activities on December 17 held a ceremony to unveil a ceramic mural on the local military-civilian ties and release a book on the Party and political work of the provincial armed forces during 1947 – 2024, in commemoration of the 80th anniversary of the Vietnam People’s Army (VPA) and 35th anniversary of the All-People Defence Festival.
In recent years, Hoa Binh has allocated significant resources to foster cooperative economy, helping ethnic minorities capitalise on their potential and advantages to escape poverty.
As a mountainous district still facing numerous challenges, Da Bac has made notable progress in advancing administrative reforms across various areas. The district has prioritised reorganising and streamlining its administrative apparatus, operating "one-stop-shop” units, and applying information technology (IT) in the handling of administrative procedures. Efforts have also been directed toward upgrading infrastructure and equipment to enhance service quality for residents and businesses.
