accounting for 99.5 percent, while 184 out of 210 communes had broadband
internet infrastructure.
The province has 743 thousand
mobile phone subscribers, and 50 percent of the local population using the

central and local radio and television broadcasting services, while 93 percent
of households have television sets, 80 percent of households watch digital TV

Regarding key tasks in the coming time, the provincial
Party Committee Secretary requested departments, agencies and press agencies
pay attention to promoting the image and socio-economic potential of the
locality, and organise events effectively.
He asked for more attention to cyber
security issues in order to prevent the abuse of Internet to commit law
violations, and urged the authorised agencies to consider issuing mechanisms
for information provision, improve the quality of press briefings, and hold
emergency press conferences when necessary.
The provincial leader also
suggested holding more meetings online, while improving the operation quality
of websites of sectors and localities, well implementing the regulations on spokesperson,
and re-evaluating the results of coordination with Nhan Dan (People) Newspaper.

activities to popularise the Law on Cyber Security, he said, adding that the
provincial authorities should design plans to enforce the law effectively./.

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.
