(HBO) – Within the framework of his working visit to Hoa Binh province, Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh had a meeting with top leaders of the locality. Attending the working session were Minister of Finance Ho Duc Phoc, Secretary of Hoa Binh provincial Party Committee Nguyen Phi Long, Permanent Vice Secretary of the Party Committee and Chairman of the People’s Council Bui Duc Hinh, and Vice Secretary of the Party Committee and Chairman of the People’s Committee Bui Van Khanh, among others.
Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh speaks at the working
session.
Khanh said that in 2022, under the comprehensive leadership
of the Party Committee and authorities, Hoa Binh fulfilled 18 out of the 19
socio-economic development criteria.
He proposed the Government allow Hoa Binh to compile
dossiers towards the recognition of Trai hamlet cave and ‘Mai da lang Vanh’
(Vanh village’s stone shelter) relic sites in Lac Son district as special
national relic sites, and allow the province to make a dossier to submit to
UNESCO for the recognition of the Hoa Binh civilisation as a world heritage of
humanity. He also suggested the Government have mechanisms and policies to
invest in socio-economic development of communes in specific regions.
Speaking at the meeting, Secretary Long stated that with its
advantages, the provincial Party Committee has identified four strategic
breakthroughs of planning, administrative reform, human resources development
associated with digital transformation, and modern infrastructure development;
and four sustainable growth pillars of tourism, manufacturing, agriculture, and
satellite housing.
Prime Minister Chinh said that Hoa Binh holds many potential
and advantages for economic development and investment attraction, and has
adequate opportunities and conditions to become a more civilised, richer, and
more beautiful locality.
However, the province's economic development has not been
commensurate with its potential and advantages, he noted, adding that the
reason is that Hoa Binh has not been able to connect with the key economic
regions in the north.
He asked the province to bring into full play its potential
and competitiveness advantages, ensure harmony between economic growth and
culture development, social welfare, environmental protection and defence – security
assurance.
The Government leader assigned ministries, sectors, and the
province to take drastic measures to soon complete three regional connectivity
routes: Hoa Binh-Hanoi, Hoa Binh-Moc Chau, and a road connecting Hoa Binh and
Hanoi and Son La expressway.
Nguyen Phi Long, alternate member of the Party Central Committee and Secretary of the Hoa Binh provincial Party Committee, and other officials on April 8 examined some key transport projects, namely the road connecting Tran Hung Dao Road and Dan Chu ward with National Highway 6, the regional connectivity road linking Hoa Binh and Hanoi with Son La Expressway (Hoa Binh - Moc Chau), and the first phase of a road from Luong Son township of Hoa Binh to Xuan Mai township of Hanoi.
Hoa Binh province recorded nearly 20 cases of religion-related wrongdoings in 2023 and the first two months of 2024. However, thanks to their active and effective engagement, relevant agencies and religious organisations have helped the provincial and district-level People’s Committees deal with those cases in a timely manner and in line with legal regulations, thus ensuring religious freedom.
The Hoa Binh provincial People’s Committee held its monthly conference in virtual form on April 2 to review draft documents to be submitted to the standing board of the provincial Party Committee and others under its management along with some other important issues. Vice Secretary of the provincial Party Committee and Chairman of the provincial People’s Committee Bui Van Khanh chaired the event, which was connected with the people's committees of districts and cities in Hoa Binh.
Smokeless 'Hoang Cam' kitchen was a small yet extremely significant initiative of a soldier chef named Hoang Cam in the Hoa Binh campaign in 1951 – 1952. This legendary stove, later named after him, accompanied the nation in the 1954 Dien Bien Phu Campaign, and during the resistance war against the US.
The 15th meeting of Hoa Binh province’s 17th-tenure Party organisation was held on March 26. Secretary of the provincial Party Committee Nguyen Phi Long, Permanent Deputy Secretary of the Party Committee and Chairman of the provincial People's Council Bui Duc Hinh, and Deputy Secretary of the Party Committee and Chairman of the provincial People’s Committee Bui Van Khanh co-chaired the event.
Nguyen Phi Long, alternate member of the Party Central Committee and Secretary of the Hoa Binh provincial Party Committee, chaired a meeting of the provincial Party Committee’s Standing Board on March 21 to review the leadership over the implementation of tasks in the first quarter, identify focal tasks and solutions for the second quarter, and discuss some important draft reports.
