(HBO) – In the morning of August 21, Vice Secretary of the Hoa Binh Party Committee and Chairman of the provincial People’s Committee Nguyen Van Quang inspected the building of the Cun Pheo - Hang Kia - National High Way No.6 road.
Chairman of the provincial
People’s Committee Nguyen Van Quang examines the project.
The construction of the route began in October 2016 at a total
cost of 80 billion VND. Funding for the project is sourced from the national
budget earmarked for a programme on supporting local socio-economic development.
The project has to date completed its subgrade, with investment
and spending amounting to 25 billion VND. Due to capital difficulty, the main
investor – the Mai Chau district People’s Committee – asked relevant agencies
to reschedule the project into two phases.
Accordingly, the first phase is set to disburse a budget of 54
billion VND until 2020 to build a drainage system as well as different base levels
for the formation of a concrete surface. The second phase, with a funding worth
26 billion VND, completes the remaining subgrade of the road.
The construction of the road has encountered downpours, which caused
landslides and hindered traffic flow. The Mai Chau district People’s Committee
proposed the provincial authorities channel more capital into the project so
that the road will soon be fully operational.
Checking on the construction progress of the project and taking
note of proposals by the committee, Chairman of the provincial People’s
Committee Nguyen Van Quang directed relevant units to consider injecting an
addition of 26 billion VND into the project. The Mai Chau People’s Committee
was tasked with joining relevant agencies to direct the allocation of human
resources and equipment following regulations.
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.
