(HBO) - Moi Mit hamlet in Yen Mong commune, Hoa Binh province, was selected as the "village of culture and national defence” model in 2016, which has created important momentum for the locality to move forward and given a facelift to the hamlet.
All of the major
roads and routes in the hamlet have been cemented, facilitating travel of local
residents.
Over
the past seven years, the model has proven effective. Local authorities,
especially the military sector, have helped people in economic development,
environmental protection and cultural life building.
Ha
Ngoc Huyen, head of Moi Mit, said Hoa Binh city’s Military Command has
coordinated with departments, agencies and organisations to help the hamlet
build 300m of cemented road and 110m of canals, and repair and upgrade the
local cultural house and houses for two families in difficult circumstances.
They
have also mobilised more than 1,200 working days and over 300 million VND for
the construction of the hamlet gate, he said.
Competent
agencies have also popularised laws and provided consultations in agriculture
and forestry for local residents, contributing to the formation of successful
economic models in the locality.
The
communal military command and militiamen have played an important role in
helping local residents deal with consequences of natural disasters.
Moi
Mit has also stepped up the campaign on building the cultural life, as
reflected through the establishment of art clubs and the development of sports,
particularly volleyball.
At
the same time, the locality has preserved its traditional culture and customs. More
than 90 percent of local households have been recognised as cultural
families./.
