from all social strata.

billion VND (2.69 million USD), up 47 percent from the set target, while per
capita income reached 47.5 million VND (nearly 2,100 USD). The household

social affairs, as well as people’s living standards. It has also ensured
social welfares, maintained political security and social order and safety, and
paid attention to the Party and administration building.
Regarding the implementation of Directive
05-CT/TW, the district Party Committee’s standing board has focused on
promoting each unit leader’s sense of responsibility and enhancing officials,
Party members, public employees and civil servants’ devotion, incorruptibility
and respect for people.
On this occasion, the People’s Committee of Ky
Son commended 29 collectives and 33 persons for their excellent attainments in
patriotic emulation movements and the implementation of Directive 05-CT/TW./.
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.
