(HBO) – The youth union of Mobifone Company Zone 4 on October 15 coordinated with Mobifone Hoa Binh in organising a programme entitled "Mobifone youth join hands with people in flood-hit areas” in two communes of Suoi Nanh and Dong Nghe (Da Bac district), with the participation of 30 members. These are two communes hardest hit by recent downpours and floods.
The historic flood since
October 9 caused serious damage in Suoi Nanh and Dong Nghe communes and made
them isolated. In Dong Nghe commune, one person was missing and nine houses
were swept away while mud, land and rocks flooded into 38 houses and destroyed about
30ha of farming land. Electric wires were severely damaged, together with interrupted
transportation and water shortages.
Meanwhile in Suoi Nanh
commune, four people were missing, 10 houses collapsed, 30 families had to move
while their domestic animals were killed or swept away and farming land was
heavily damaged.

With the motto "the good
leaves protect ripped ones”, Mobifone Company Zone 4 called for support of all
grassroots-level youth organisations nationwide to help ease difficulties faced
by people in flood-hit areas in Da Bac and give them motivations to overcome this
difficult time. It also raised young people’s awareness of helping other people
in the community. Mobifone presented 160 gift packages, each worth 300,000 VND,
to residents of the two communes. Each package includes instant noodles,
provisions, drinking water, antibiotic, flashlights, candles and lighters.
Besides the gifts, members of the delegation also guided local people to
sterilise water and participated in clean-ups of road, schools and local houses
that affected by floods.

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.
