More than 60 years ago, President Ho Chi Minh
launched the ‘tree-planting festival’. Luong Son authorities asked authorities
at all levels and socio-political organisations to raise public awareness of
the aim and meaning of the festival as well as forest planting and protection.
This year, the district aims to grow more than
30,000 dispersed trees, and ensure that forests fill over 80 percent of
assigned forestry land and forest coverage is kept stable at 42 percent.
The improvement of forest planting productivity, quality and efficiency must be
in line with the protection of current forest resources and prevention of
deforestation and illegal exploitation.
Efforts should be made to restructure the
forestry sector and increase share and value of the forest economy in a bid to
raise quality of people’s living conditions and sustainable development of
Luong Son.
After the launch ceremony, the leaders of the
province and Luong Son district planted trees at the relic.
Extending his Tet wishes to the standing board
of Luong Son’s Party Committee, Tuan highly valued outcomes obtained by the
district in the recent past, voicing his hope that it will pay due attention to
forest planting for economic and tourism development.
As a key region of Hoa Binh, Luong Son was
requested to tap on its strengths, focus on meeting requirements of 4-tier
urban area and strive to become a town by 2025 as planned./.
In mid-May, the provincial Museum organised an exhibition named "Duoi la co Dang Cong san Viet Nam quang vinh” (Under the flag of the glorious Communist Party of Vietnam). This meaningful activity took place in the joyful atmosphere to celebrate the country's major holidays and the Party congresses at all levels for the 2025-2030 term, towards the 14th National Party Congress.
A delegation from Hoa Binh province led by Colonel Trinh Duc Thiem, Commander of the provincial Military Command, completed a mission to visit and encourage officers and soldiers stationed on Truong Sa and a DK1 platform from May 20 to 26 as part of activities of the Vietnam People’s Navy. The delegation included 12 senior officials from various provincial agencies and units.
Storytelling and painting contests honouring President Ho Chi Minh have been held at the Hoa Binh provincial Youth Activity Centre.
The Hoa Binh provincial People's Committee held a gathering at the provincial Military Command headquarters on May 20 to commend the armed forces that took part in a military parade celebrating the 50th anniversary of the Liberation of the South and National Reunification on April 30.
Throughout his revolutionary life, Uncle Ho visited Hoa Binh province four times. He also sent dozens of letters, telegrams, greeting cards, and heartfelt messages to local officials, Party members, and people of all ethnic groups, urging them to remain united, support one another, strive for progress, and actively engage in both production and resistance efforts to build a prosperous homeland.
To unlock the full potential of its forest resources, the standing board of the provincial Party Committee on July 30, 2020 issued a Resolution on the sustainable development of production forests through 2025, with a vision toward 2030.
