(HBO) – A delegation of Hoa Binh province on November 21 made a working trip to Luong Son district to assess the district’s performance in implementing criteria for new-style rural area in 2019.

The delegation visits an orchid growing model in Nhuan Trach commune, Luong Son district.

After the ten-year implementation of the new-style rural area building programme, all 19 communes in Luong Son have been recognised as new-style rural areas. The district has invested in infrastructure to better serve local socio-economic development and residents’ daily life.

Luong Son has also paid attention to restructuring the agricultural sector and improving the material and spiritual life of locals. The locality’s poverty rate is expected to drop to 3.41 percent by the end of this year, and per capita income to reach 38 million VND.

According to the People’s Committee of the district, Luong Son has met all nine criteria set for a new-style rural district. After touring some communes, the delegation had a working session with the district’s People’s Committee to evaluate the implementation of the national target programme on new-style rural area building in the locality.

They agreed with the committee’s assessment and suggested it supplement relevant documents, review data in the dossier and attached documents, and send the dossier to competent agencies on November 25 to submit it to the provincial People’s Committee for voting.

At the working session, Luong Son’s leaders pledged to instruct relevant agencies to soon complete the dossier while continuing with the building of new-style rural areas, focusing on improving the quality of all criteria./.

From just 16 certified products in its inaugural year to 158 by early 2025, the One Commune One Product (OCOP) programme in Hoa Binh province has followed a steady and strategic path. But beyond the numbers, it has reawakened local heritage, turning oranges, bamboo shoots, brocade, and herbal remedies into branded, market-ready goods - and, more profoundly, transformed how local communities value and present their own cultural identity.
