Union committee and Women’s Union of Hoa Binh province signed a cooperation
programme to support the sales of agricultural products in the 2021-2025
period.
Under the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and
the instability of the agricultural product market, farmers are facing many
difficulties in finding buyers for their agricultural products, causing great
damage to the economy and people's lives. Therefore, the above-mentioned
organizations agreed to sign a cooperation programme to timely support their
members in selling the products as well as get used to promotion and sales
methods which are relevant to the current situation and the market instability.
The programme will focus on developing and
implementing communications activities about the province’s agricultural
products, and building support plans for the sales of agricultural products for
each specific period.
A network of agricultural products trading will
be developed to expand the distribution market. Union members will be
encouraged to prioritise using agricultural products produced and processed in
the province. An e-commerce platform will also be formed to facilitate the
connection of supply and demand for agricultural products in Hoa Binh province.
Under the signed programme, the provincial
Farmers’Association is assigned to be the coordinator. It will work with the
other organisations in developing the annual plan to assist the sales of
agricultural produce.
The organisations will alternately host meetings
to evaluate the results and adjust the programme’s content to make it relevant
to the actual situation./.
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.
