(HBO) - The northern mountainous province of Hoa Binh has organised a meeting to review the 10-year implementation of the national target programme on new-style rural area building during the 2010-2020 period.
Bui Van Tinh, member of the Party Central Committee, Secretary of the Party Committee of Hoa Binh province, and other provincial leaders visit the booth of the agricultural cooperative of Dao hamlet, Thong Nhat commune, Hoa Binh city.
After ten years of implementing the programme, rural areas in Hoa Binh have
been given a facelift across spheres, from politics to socio-economic
development and environmental protection. Locals’ living standards have been
improved significantly. Annual per capita income in rural areas is estimated at
32 million VND in 2019, and the rate of poor households is expected to drop to
about 14.28 percent. Hoa Binh province has also paid attention to
socio-economic infrastructure construction in these areas.
By September 2019, 82 out of 191 communes (42.9 percent) in the province had
been recognised as new-style rural areas. Each commune fulfilled about 15.01
criteria on average and there are no communes completing less than 10 criteria.
Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc recognised Hoa Binh city’s fulfillment of its new-style
rural area building duty in 2018. Meanwhile, Luong Son district is completing a
dossier for the PM’s recognition in 2019.
During the 2009-2019 period, the province mobilised 21.21 trillion VND for the
programme, of which 6.3 percent was sourced from the central budget. The
locality has built and upgraded more than 4,000 km of rural roads, nearly 800
km of canals, more than 500 school facilities, over 700 cultural works, nearly
80 rural markets and 80 communal medical centres, with investment totaling 52.7
trillion VND, of which 14 percent came from the State treasury.
On this occasion, the provincial Confederation of Labour presented 1,100 tonnes
of cement to Hoa Binh city and 10 districts to support their new-style rural
area building. /.

During this Lunar New Year (Tet), residents of Vay Nua commune, Da Bac district are joyfully celebrating the arrival of spring with various festive activities. Along the main road of the commune, a newly installed solar-powered streetlight system stands out, completed just before Tet. Funded by Agribank Hoa Binh with a total investment of approximately 80 million VND (over 3,100 USD), the project has already proven beneficial. Not only does it enhance the rural landscape, but it also improves road safety and security, adding to the New Year’s cheer for the people of Vay Nua.
Nestled in Tan Lac district, Van Son commune boasts a breathtaking landscape reminiscent of a serene, poetic painting. Winding roads gracefully embrace the hillsides, enhancing the commune’s natural charm. As spring spreads its vibrant colours, the lives of local people continue to improve day by day.
The trade union of Hoa Binh province’s industrial parks has presented meaningful gifts to workers with difficulties, ensuring that they will have a warm Lunar New Year (Tet) holiday.
According to the Department of Agriculture and Rural Development's report, in 2024, the appropriate authorities regularly propagated and disseminated forest protection management, forest development, and forest fire prevention and fighting.
