Since its inception 15 years ago, the Fund for
Natural Disaster Prevention and Control has implemented many programmes and
projects to help people nationwide improve their disaster resilience and ease
losses caused by natural disasters.
It has mobilised more than 609 billion VND
(24.04 million USD) so far, and supported 55 cities and provinces across the
country with 122 disaster prevention facilities. In Hoa Binh, the fund has
carried out multiple activities with a total funding of 8.3 billion VND.
At the working session, Hoa Binh suggested the
fund continue its support for the locality in disaster prevention and control,
especially its areas prone to floods and landslides, and further fund
infrastructure construction there.
In reply, Dien promised that the fund will
continue mobilising resources to help Hoa Binh raise its disaster resilience
and ease damage and risks of natural disasters in the province.
On May 15, the Hoa Binh Steering Committee for Science, Technology, Innovation, and Digital Transformation launched the "Digital Literacy for All” movement. The event was held both in-person and virtually, connecting provincial authorities with district-level Party committees and local communities across communes, wards, and townships.
The People’s Committee of Hoa Binh province on May 16 held a conference to honour outstanding intellectuals for their contributions in 2025.
The Standing Board of the Hoa Binh provincial Party Committee has held a conference to announce the provincial Party Committee’s decision about the merger of Hoa Binh Newspaper and the provincial Radio and Television Station, along with the Standing Board’s appointment decisions.
After the historic victory on April 30, 1975, which liberated the South and reunified the country, the whole Vietnam embarked on a new mission — promoting peace and reconstructing the nation with century-defining projects. On the fierce Da River, over 30,000 engineers, sappers, and construction workers battled against rocky mountains and raging floods to achieve a remarkable feat. The Hoa Binh Hydropower Plant, the largest of its kind in Southeast Asia at that time, officially began generating electricity, lighting up the North and ushering in a new era of industrialisation.
Muong Dong in Kim Boi district, one of the four major Muong regions in Hoa Binh province, is harnessing its revolutionary legacy and cultural heritage to drive socio-economic transformation.
Throughout April, the joyful atmosphere of the 50th anniversary of the Liberation of the South and National Reunification spread nationwide. Together with the whole country, residents in Hoa Binh city also expressed their patriotism through meaningful and practical actions.
