(HBO) – The rough and muddy roads have been gradually concretised, while the cultural houses in hamlets and villages have been built, serving as gathering, art and sport exchange places for residents in Kim Boi district, northern Hoa Binh province.
The once dry fields have now
become green with melon, chilly, gourd and maize plants. The farms raise from
several hundreds to thousands of chickens. Home gardens have been renovated
into orchards with high economic value.
They are the vivid illustration of changes in
the way of thinking and doing of locals in communes in areas benefitting from
the Programme 135 on Poverty Reduction in Kim Boi district.

Head of the ethnic affair department of Kim
Boi district Nguyen Thanh Trung said implementing Programme 135, the district
has carried out effectively ethnic policies and programmes via investment in
building infrastructure, maintaining construction works, supporting production
development, building water supply facilities, and providing direct support for
poor households.
These activities have positively contributed to
the local socio-economic development as well as security-defence and social
order and safety. In particular, the programmes and projects are carried out in
a democratic and transparent manner from the grassroots level, with investment
made for the right purposes and target beneficiaries, thus strengthening the
trust of people in the Party and State’s ethnic affair policies.
Implementing effectively tasks on the ethnic
work, infrastructure in rural areas of Kim Boi district has step by step
upgraded. Ethnic people have changed their way of thinking and actively worked
to develop the household economy. To date, the rate of poor households in the
district’s urban area has reduced to 20.17 percent. The average annual per
capita income is estimated at over 22.6 million VND (971.8 USD). These outcomes
have significantly contributed to political stability and security in ethnic
minority areas in Kim Boi district as well as promoting the great unity of the
nation in the process of building and development./.
Administrative reform has been identified as a key priority in enhancing state governance, improving the business environment, and facilitating services for citizens and enterprises.
The Standing Board of the Hoa Binh provincial Party Committee met on March 18 to review and guide major investment projects aimed at boosting local socio-economic development.
The air is thick with the hum of drills and the clatter of machinery as the Hoa Binh – Moc Chau expressway takes shape amid the rugged terrain. Welding sparks illuminate the faces of workers, and concrete mixers churn relentlessly, laying fresh pavement on the newly-carved road. The construction site buzzes with a palpable sense of urgency, particularly in Hoa Binh province where the expressway's future is being forged.
The northern province of Hoa Binh, with over 467,000 hectares of natural forest and more than 100,000 hectares of production forest, holds significant potential for carbon credit market development.
Replacing substandard houses with more sturdy ones by June 30 is the direction given by Nguyen Phi Long, alternate member of the Party Central Committee and Secretary of the Hoa Binh provincial Party Committee, at a meeting held in early March by the provincial Steering Committee for the programme to eliminate temporary and dilapidated houses for the needy.
Recognising digital transformation as an inevitable trend, authorities and agencies in Hoa Binh have made great efforts in the work by focusing on three core pillars - digital government, digital society, and digital economy, resulting in enhanced competitiveness, improved investment climate, and ensured economic and social welfare.
