(HBO) - The Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee has issued Directive No. 02/CT-UBND on launching the "Tet tree-planting Festival" movement and strengthening the forest protection and development in 2021. Authorities of all levels, sectors, agencies, units and localities are requested to join the festival. The number of the trees to be planted this spring is expected to be 1.5 times higher than that in 2020, and double in the 2022-2025 period. The movement will be started on February 17, 2021 (the sixth day of the first lunar month of the year of the Buffalo).
In 2021, the province
aims to plant 5,620 ha of concentrated forest; take a good care of the
previously-planted trees and well manage
and protect the existing natural forest area. Localities and organisations are
to build their plans to implement the Governent’s One Billion Tree Programme for
the 2021 – 2025 period and turn it into an emulation movement at all levels, sectors
and residential areas with the participation of all people. Trees will be mainly
planted in urban areas, industrial parks, export processing zones, residential
areas, cultural-historical zones, memorial areas, traffic corridors, as well as
the protective areas for agricultural cultivation. Large, perennial and
multi-purpose timber trees will be selected for planting, thus contributing to
the province's sustainable development goals.
Supervision, evaluation and experience learning will be annually conducted
to solve shortcomings and replicate good models, ensuring the effective implementation
of the programme. Units involved will also timely evaluate, praise and give
rewards to outstanding organisations and individuals while reporting the
results to the provincial Department of Agriculture and Rural Development for
synthesising and reporting to the Provincial People's Committee.
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.
