(HBO) – Since the year’s beginning, the Hoa Binh provincial Committee of the Vietnam Fatherland Front (VFF) has allocated part of the province’s Fund for the Poor to district-level VFF committees and its members organisations to build and repair 145 houses for low-income earners, costing 4.35 billion VND (189,000 USD) in total. Every new construction was supported with 30 million VND while each house needing repairs 20 million VND.
Officials of the VFF Committee of Lac Son district hand over
a new house to a poor family in Tan My commune.
Specifically, authorities of Lac Son district
built 23 new houses, Tan Lac district 15, Da Bac district 19 and repaired one,
Mai Chau district built 12, Kim Boi district 18, Lac Thuy district eight, Cao
Phong district nine, Luong Son district five, Yen Thuy district eight, and Hoa
Binh city another four.
Meanwhile, the provincial Farmers’ Union helped
construct five houses in Lac Son, the provincial War Veteran’s Association five
houses in Kim Boi, the provincial Committee of the Ho Chi Minh Communist Youth
Union five houses in Da Bac, the provincial Confederation of Labour two houses
in Tan Lac, and the provincial Women’s Union five houses in Yen Thuy district
and Hoa Binh city.
Besides the funding from the Fund for the Poor,
VFF committees have also encouraged local residents and philanthropists to
support in the form of cash and labour. As a result, many houses were worth up
to 70 – 100 million VND when completed.
The raising, management and use of the
provincial Fund for the Poor have been carried out in line with regulations,
thus assisting many local deprived households to settle down and escape from
poverty./.
The people in Hoa Binh province are aware of the need to build and preserve the cultural traditions and unique customs of their communities, especially those related to ethnic identities and family values which serve as foundation for a vibrant, tradition-rich Hoa Binh, enriching community life. In recent years, the province’s Party Committee, authorities, and residents have paid heed to building and developing family values and fostering human standards in the new era.
The festival of great national solidarity and culture in 2024 was held at the communal house of Da Bac district on November 5. Vice Chairman of the provincial People’s Committee Nguyen Van Toan and leaders of departments and sectors attended the event.

In recent years, the Women's Union of Yen Thuy district has actively contributed to the implementation of the National Target Program on building new the rural areas. The Union's activities not only help raise awareness of environmental protection for the members, the women, and the people but they also contribute to improving the appearance of rural areas and improving the quality of life.
The model of intergenerational self-help club (ISC) has been expanded in Mai Chau district over recent times, contributing to sharing and motivating the disadvantaged people, especially the elderly, to improve their lives.
Following President Ho Chi Minh’s teachings that emulation is patriotism, patriotism requires emulation, the trade union at all levels in Hoa Binh has effectively implemented patriotism emulation movements, especially the "effective, creative working” movement. Responding to the movement, local workers, public servants, and officials have proposed many creative and applicable ideas, helping spread the movement to all agencies, units, and businesses.
