(HBO) – Every Saturday morning, Phang A Song and his wife join other residents in Pa Co Con hamlet of Pa Co commune, Mai Chau district, in cleaning up the local environment and dredging ditches along roads.
Residents in Pa Khom hamlet of Pa Co
commune, Mai Chau district, have actively taken part in the paving of rural
roads.
Chairman of the Pa Co communal People’s Committee
Sung A Mang said it is a disadvantaged commune, the life of many residents
remains unstable, while people’s educational level is still limited, posing
challenges to new-style rural area building efforts. Therefore, the commune has
faced numerous difficulties in mobilising people’s resources for infrastructure
construction.
Recently, residents in Pa Khom hamlet joined in
the concreting of over 500m of road and the construction of other facilities.
Aside from the State’s financial support, locals donated hundreds of square
metres of land, helped ready the construction site, and directly participated
in the building. As a result, in a short period of time, the road was completed
and put into use, helping to give a facelift to this rural area.
Thanks to the capitalisation of public support,
all 4.64km of roads linking hamlets across Pa Co commune have been paved, and
4.62km or 68 percent of the 7.62km of local roads cleaned up and protected from
flooding in the rainy season.
Residents have also actively joined hands in
building cultural facilities. The Sung, Trang and Mua families, among others,
have helped schools in Xa Linh I, Pa Hang Lon and Cha Day hamlets to upgrade
their infrastructure.
In 2018, people in Pa Co donated nearly 400sq.m.
of land to building school infrastructure. They include residents Trang A Pua
in Xa Linh hamlet (195sq.m. of land), Mua A Chenh in Cha Day hamlet (81sq.m.)
and Mua A Pua in Pa Hang Lon hamlet (110sq.m.). That has helped complete the
network of schools at different levels here./.
The women's unions at all levels in Kim Boi district have been making significant contributions to the movement of building cultural life in the local community.
The movement helps improve rural look and the spiritual and material lives of local residents.
The Hoa Binh provincial People’s Committee has issued an action plan to ensure food safety, promote processing, and develop the market for agricultural, forestry, and fishery products in 2025.
In recent years, the development of rural handicrafts has not only helped preserve and promote the traditional values but it has also created jobs and improved incomes for the local residents.
By harmoniously combining traditional medicine with modern medical practices, the Hoa Binh Traditional Medicine Hospital is strengthening its role in the province’s healthcare system.
