The emulation block of social, occupational, and financial organisations in Hoa Binh province on December 13 held a conference to review emulation and reward work in 2023 and roll out tasks for 2024.
Representatives from the organisations at the conference.
The bloc has nine member units, namely the Hoa Binh province’s Union of provincial
Science and Technology Associations, the Forest Protection and Development
Fund, the Hoa Binh Cooperative Alliance, the Hoa Binh Bar Association, the Hoa
Binh Investment and Development Fund, the Hoa Binh Arts and Literature
Association, the Hoa Binh Oriental Medicine Association, the Hoa Binh
Journalists' Association, and the Hoa Binh Business Association.
In 2023, the block has boosted patriotic emulation movements, completed
assigned tasks, and made important contributions to the socio-economic
development of the province.
Notably, it promoted the 9th Technical Innovation Contest and
the 19th Youth Creativity Contest with the number of entries reaching 129 and
33 solutions, respectively.
The Forest Protection and Development Fund organised two training
courses on applying digital technology with smartphones and electronic devices
and on implementing payment for forest environmental services for cadastral
officers and commune-level firefighting officers.
The provincial Cooperative Alliance admitted 28 new members,
bringing the total to 299. The provincial Bar Association provided legal advice
for over 850 cases and mobile legal aid for over 50 others. The Oriental
Medicine Association provided medical examination and treatment to nearly
320,000 people, and exploited and purchased over 1,200 tonnes of medicinal
herbs of all kinds.
During the year, the provincial Journalists' Association
organised many practical and effective activities including training courses
and field trips.
Meanwhile, the provincial Business Association served as a
bridge connecting businesses in the province, supporting local businesses for a
better understanding of the Party, the State and the Government’s guidelines,
policies, and laws. It also organised conferences, regularly listened to its
members' feedback and proposed provincial leaders to remove difficulties for
the business community.
Units in the block proposed 14 key tasks and solutions for its emulation
activities in 2024.
At the conference, they proposed the provincial Emulation and Reward Council to
present the Emulation Flag to the Forest Investment and Development Fund and
award certificates of merit to three units, namely the Union of Science and
Technology Associations, the Cooperative Alliance and the Literature and Arts
Association. The Forest Protection and Development Fund was elected as head of
the emulation block in 2024 and the Oriental Medicine Association the deputy
head.
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.
