(HBO) – This year, Bui Thi Bem and her family in Lai hamlet of Tay Phong commune (Cao Phong district, Hoa Binh province) no longer have to live in a dilapidated house. Her aspiration for a solid house has now come true.
Dang Viet Toan, a resident in the same hamlet, was also
assisted to build a house. Both families now have new and cozy homes to welcome
the traditional Lunar New Year (Tet) festival.
The Vietnam Fatherland Front Committee of Mai Chau
district hands over a new house to Bui Van Khiem, a resident in Not hamlet of
Phuc San commune (now Son Thuy commune).
In the recent past, the Vietnam Fatherland Front
(VFF) committees at all levels have worked to call for donations to the Fund
for the Poor, receiving strong support from the public. In 2019, more than 14.3
billion VND was donated to the funds at the communal, district and provincial
levels. Thanks to this source of funding, Hoa Binh province had 170 houses
worth over 3.77 billion VND built and another 73 repaired at a total cost of
nearly 344 million VND for poor people. Low-income households were assisted to
develop production activities and receive health examination and treatment.
Support was also given to students from these households.
Dang Thi Bich Ngoc, Vice President of the
provincial VFF Committee, said during the Peak Month for the Poor in 2019, the
provincial VFF Committee’s Standing Board launched a campaign to call for
support to the provincial Fund for the Poor, which received more than 16.2
billion VND donated by 115 collectives and individuals. This was one of the
practical activities in response to the emulation movement "Hoa Binh province
joins hands for the poor – Leaving no one behind”.
Last year, member organisations of the provincial
VFF also carried out practical activities to care for low-income earners and
disadvantaged people. For example, the association of war veterans helped its
members to build and repair 32 houses, the provincial women’s union handed over
34 new houses to disadvantaged members, and the farmers’ union mobilised
funding to build 16 houses. Thanks to the public’s assistance, many deprived
households in Hoa Binh have had new homes to welcome the New Year.
Aside from support for house construction, on
January 8, the provincial VFF Committee issued a plan to visit and present Tet
gifts to the poor with a view to ensuring that all families, especially policy
beneficiaries, will have a happy Tet. Relevant sides visited and presented the
gifts from January 13 to 21 (from the 19th to the 26th day of the 12th lunar
month). Additionally, six businesses also plan to present thousands of gift
packages worth 400,000 – 1 million VND each to poor households in the
province./.
In the spirit of "Party members go first, the people follow”, all households of Party members in the Doan Ket sub-region in Da Bac town, Da Bac district, voluntarily removed gates and fences, and donated land when the road expansion project passed through their properties. Inspired by their example, 68 households in the sub-region quickly followed suit, contributing over 1,400 sq.m of residential and perennial cropland to widen the main road through the residential area. The exemplary role of Party members in Doan Ket stands as a shining example of studying and following President Ho Chi Minh’s thought, morality, and lifestyle.
The Hoa Binh provincial People's Committee held a monthly meeting on May 29 to assess the implementation of socio-economic development tasks in the first six months of 2025, the progress of key projects, and some other important issues.
During his lifetime, President Ho Chi Minh always expressed his deep affection and special concern for children and youth. He once emphasized: "Caring for and educating children well is the responsibility of the entire Party and the entire people”; "First of all, the family (i.e. grandparents, parents, siblings) must do this job well”. "the Party Committees…, the Children’s Committee, the Youth Union, the education sector, and all related organizations must have specific plans to ensure children grow healthier and more progressive”. His teachings has been remaining valuable and serving as the guiding principles in the work of protecting, caring for, and educating children. In line with this ideology, Hoa Binh Province has continuously been prioritizing and investing resources in the well-being of children in recent years.
