(HBO) – Local residents living along provincial Road 435 (Binh Thanh - Thung Nai - Ngoi Hoa, Tan Lac district) have agreed to facilitate land clearance in service of the road construction.
Bui Thi Hanh’s family in Ne
hamlet, Ngoi Hoa commune hands over land to the authority.
Road 435 has nearly 9 km running through Mu, Ne, Buong, Ngoi and
Liem hamlets in Ngoi Hoa commune. About 200 local households have to relocate their
assets and crops due to the construction. The land clearance work has basically
been completed, even ahead of the schedule set by the Chairman of the
provincial People’s Committee, under which at least half of the site in Tan Lac
district must be cleared by the end of September 2018. Although local residents
have yet to get compensation, they have handed over space to the project’s
investor and constructor.
Ngoi Hoa has well performed the communication work to encourage
officials, Party members and residents to support and abide by policies and
guidelines of the province, and move their assets, crops and houses in order to
create favourable conditions for the constructor to implement the project.
Apart from publicising compensation methods, commune authorities have also
followed measurement regulations in land clearance. Ngoi Hoa decided to ratify
the compensation estimate at about 16 billion VND.
The project on upgrading Road 435 was approved by the provincial
People’s Committee under Decision No. 1644/QD-UBND dated August 30, 2017, with
a total investment capital of 756 billion VND through Government bonds during
the 2016-2020 period. Of the sum, the province’s capital is 56 billion VND.
A total 21.18km of the road have been upgraded under Level-3
standards which are set for mountainous areas with a designed speed of 60km/h.
It starts from the Binh Thanh intersection to Thung Nai in Cao Phong district,
and ends in Liem hamlet, Ngoi Hoa commune, Tan Lac district. The project has
received 630 billion VND, of which 150 billion VND in 2017.

The cultivation of Dam Xanh fish (Bangana lemassoni), a unique fish species, has seen remarkable growth in Mai Chau district, thanks to its high economic value and effectiveness. Initially concentrated in Van Mai commune, farming has now extended to four other communes, namely Mai Hich, Mai Ha, Chieng Chau, and Son Thuy. These areas benefit from pristine underground water flowing from mountain crevices, providing ideal conditions for raising this specialty fish.
