Trac village in Lac Thinh commune of Yen Thuy district organised the National Great Solidarity Festival 2023 on November 4, which was attended by Bui Van Khanh, Deputy Secretary of the Hoa Binh Party Committee and Chairman of the provincial People’s Committee, and Nguyen Tien Sinh, member of the provincial Party Committee and Chairman of the Committee’s Inspection Commission.
Bùi Văn Khánh, Deputy Secretary of the Hoa Binh Party Committee and Chairman of the provincial People’s Committee, presents flowers and gifts to representatives of Trac village of Lac Tinh commune, Yen Thuy district.
Trac village is home to 194 households with 910 people who are mostly from the Muong ethnic minority group. This year, local officials and residents have actively responded to movements and campaigns, especially the campaign of "all-people foster solidarity in building new-style rural areas and civilised urban areas".
Local residents have shown strong solidarity to overcome difficulties and promote socio-economic development, boosting the growth of their residential areas in all fields. The annual per capita income of the village is estimated at 50 million VND (2,053 USD), while the rate of poor households has been reduced to 3.09, and 95% of local families have been recognised as cultural families. No law violation or denunciation has been reported in the locality.
Addressing the festival, Bui Van Khanh, Deputy Secretary of the Hoa Binh Party Committee and Chairman of the provincial People’s Committee, hailed the achievements that the village has gained. He asked the Party Committees and administration as well as the Vietnam Fatherland Front (VFF) Committees and its members at all levels to continue to promote the strength from people’s great solidarity as well as the people’s will, aspirations and creativity in protecting and building the homeland in the new situation.
At the same time, it is necessary to continue to encourage locals to implement the Party and State’s policies and laws, while mobilising resources to speed up the implementation of the resolutions of the Party Congresses at all levels, he said.
Khanh also underlined the need for more specific actions to care for locals’ life, along with the implementation of the democracy rules and the settlement of problems right from the grassroots level, and the strengthening of people’s trust in the Party, State and local administration.
On the occasion, the provincial Party Committee, People’s Council, People’s Committee, and VFF Committee as well as sectors presented gifts to locals and officials of the village. Outstanding collectives, individuals, families, and students of the village were also honoured.
With an increasingly vibrant and widespread emulation movement aimed at building cultured residential areas and cultured families, Yen Thuy District has been making steady progress toward improving both the material and spiritual well-being of its people, while fostering a civilized, prosperous, beautiful, and progressive community.
Once lacking recreational spaces and community facilities, Residential Group 2 in Quynh Lam Ward (Hoa Binh City) has recently received attention for the construction of a new, spacious, and fully equipped cultural house. The project followed the model of state support combined with public contributions in both labor and funding.
The "All people unite to build cultural life" movement, which has been effectively integrated with Kim Boi district’s socio-economic development goals, is fostering a lively spirit of emulation across local residential areas, hamlets, villages, public agencies, and enterprises. In addition, through the initiative, traditional cultural values are being preserved and promoted, while community solidarity and mutual support in poverty reduction and economic development are being strengthened.
A working delegation of the Hoa Binh provincial People’s Committee led by its Permanent Vice Chairman Nguyen Van Toan on June 11 inspected the progress of a project to build the Mo Muong Cultural Heritage Conservation Space linked to tourism services in Hop Phong commune, Cao Phong district.
Born and growing in the heroic land of Muong Dong, Dinh Thi Kieu Dung, a resident in Bo town of Kim Boi district, in her childhood was nurtured by the sweet lullabies of her grandmother and mother. These melodies deeply imprinted on her soul, becoming an inseparable part of her love for her ethnic group's culture. For over 20 years, this love for her hometown has driven Dung to research, collect, and pass down the cultural values of the Muong people to future generations.
In the final days of May, the Ethnic Art Troupe of Hoa Binh Province organized performances to serve the people in remote, mountainous, and particularly disadvantaged areas within the province. These were not just ordinary artistic shows, but they were the meaningful journeys aimed at spreading cultural values, enhancing the spiritual life of the people and contributing to the preservation of ethnic minority cultural identities.
