(HBO) - Criteria No. 17 related to the environment was identified by Lac Son district as important content, especially for communes striving to meet new rural standards. To achieve the target, it is necessary to mobilise the participation of the whole political system, agencies, business community and the people.
The Women's Union of Van Son commune
(Lac Son District) calls on its members of Loi Muong hamlet to collect and
treat domestic waste at the right place.
This year, the district will continue to promote dissemination to enhance
awareness of the people, authorities and mass organisations.
People are encouraged to take measures to clean the environment in their
residential areas, along with the mobilization of the private sector in
environmental protection and investing in the construction of a centralised
waste treatment area among communes. The "All people unite to build a
cultural life" movement is carried out along with the realisation of
village conventions on rural environmental protection. People are
encouraged to lead a civilised life and cultural family as well as develop
production and animal husbandry in association with environmental protection.
Bui Thanh Tung, Vice Chairman of the district People's Committee, said the
district focuses on disseminating legal documents to fulfil criteria No 17 and
new rural buildings in the management of environmental protection. Businesses,
production and business establishments in the area are facilitated in the
observation of environmental protection regulations.
Up to now, the rate of households using hygienic and clean water has reached 98
percent. The percentage of businesses, aquatic farms and craft villages that
meet regulations on environmental protection is 65 percent. Solid waste and
wastewater in residential areas, production and business establishments have
been collected and treated in line with regulations.
Implementing environmental criteria No. 17, the district has 75 percent of
households with hygienic toilets. Seven out of 24 communes are assessed to
satisfy the criteria for waste treatment. Seven communes have fulfilled the
criteria set for new-style rural areas. The district is striving to have
two more communes meeting the criteria by the end of this year, namely Tan Lap
and Yen Phu.
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.
