(HBO) – Hoa Binh province had not recorded any COVID-19 infection cases as of March 22. However, the provincial steering board for COVID-19 prevention and control has still taken drastic actions in the face of the pandemic’s complex and unpredictable developments in the world and Vietnam.
Members
of the steering boards for COVID-19 prevention and control of Hoa Binh province
and Mai Chau district examine the preparations for quarantine at Mai Chau Ecolodge
on March 17, 2020.
The provincial steering board ordered local
media agencies, sectors, organisations and authorities to step up
communications to provide the public with knowledge about preventive measures
and organise disease prevention and control activities well.
In particular, it requested authorised forces to
manage and monitor all suspected cases who have close contact with confirmed
COVID-19 patients; seriously carry out check-up, quarantine and treatment for
patients; and prevent cross infection for medical workers and other patients at
healthcare establishments.
They were also asked to monitor people returning from
coronavirus-hit countries and regions, make a list of people having close
contact with those persons and needing quarantine, take samples for testing,
and provide self-quarantine guidance.
At present, 171 people are currently kept in
quarantine in Hoa Binh. They include two persons quarantined at the medical
centres of Mai Chau and Lac Thuy districts, 42 at concentrated quarantine
facilities, and 127 others at home./.
In Hoa Binh province, 11 traditional craft villages with more than 400 small-scaled production households have put in place a clean and green production model, establishing new standards for sustainable development. Waste collection sites and wastewater treatment facilities have been meticulously managed by local residents.
To make it easier for the residents to handle administrative procedures, Yen Bong Commune (Lac Thuy District) has identified the administrative reform as one of its key tasks. By implementing a range of synchronized solutions, the commune has seen the positive changes in the administrative reform, meeting the needs of its people.
Mai Chau district has firmly established itself as a standout destination on Vietnam’s tourism map, attracting both domestic and international visitors with its breathtaking landscapes, rich ethnic culture, and warm hospitality. However, beyond its natural and cultural charm, a secure and well-managed tourism environment has added to Mai Chau’s appeal.
As Vietnam enters a new phase of economic and administrative reform in 2025, Hoa Binh province is stepping up its efforts to streamline governance, boost economic growth, and attract investment.
The Hoa Binh provincial People's Committee held its monthly meeting on March 26 to review the progress of key projects, assess budget revenue and public investment disbursement, provide feedback on draft documents for submission to the provincial Party Committee's Standing Board, and discuss other important matters related to the committee's governance activities.
Playing a key role in Hoa Binh province’s economic development, Luong Son district has been focusing on science and technology development, innovation, and digital transformation.
