Ngai hamlet is home to 89 households with 428
people, 95% of them Muong ethnic minority people. Residents in the hamlet
always actively respond to emulation movements and campaigns, especially the
one "All people unite to build new rural areas and promote urban
civilization". They stay united and work hard to overcome difficulties,
contributing to promoting socio-economic development, and building the
residential areas with development in all aspects.
The per capita income in the hamlet is 35
million VND (1,381 USD) per year. The rate of poor households decreased to
9.8%. Up to 92% of the households in the residential area obtained
the title of "Family of culture”.
Speaking at the event, Khanh praised the
residential area for its achievements, expressing his hope that local people
will continue to promote solidarity, will, aspiration, and creative emulation
spirit to join efforts to build the homeland.
He requested the local Party Committee,
administration, and Vietnam Fatherland Front Committee to continue popularising
and calling on people to well implement the Party's guidelines and policies,
and the State's laws; and mobilising all resources to promote the
implementation of the Party Congress resolutions at all levels.
On the occasion, the residential area of the
hamlet received gifts of the provincial Party Committee, People’s Committee,
and Vietnam Fatherland Front Committee of Hoa Binh province, and local sectors.
Phong Phu commune, Tan Lac district of Hoa Binh province, is widely regarded as the cultural heartland of the Muong ethnic group. Among its many traditional communities, Luy Ai hamlet (formerly Ai hamlet) stands out as a rare location where the customs and way of life of the Muong Bi people remain largely intact.
The Truong Kha temple festival, a distinctive cultural event held every three years in Vu Ban township, Lac Son district, returned recently with vibrant rituals and folk traditions of the Muong people. Located next to the Buoi River in the Muong Trao fields, the Truong Kha Temple is dedicated to the three Kun Dol deities, revered for teaching farming techniques, irrigation, weaving, and protecting the harvest.
The demand for spaces serving community activities of residents in various areas across Hoa Binh city has been satisfied as local cultural houses now feature modern, spacious facilities thanks to the effective implementation of Resolution No. 49/NQ-HDND issued on December 28, 2021 by the city People's Council, which approved the plan for reorganising, converting, and allocating land for the construction, repair, and expansion of cultural houses in Hoa Binh’s villages and residential areas until 2025.
At the end of May, the Hoa Binh Provincial Ethnic Arts Troupe organized a series of performances for residents in Region 2 and Region 3 communes across the province. Bringing art to ethnic communities in remote, isolated, and especially disadvantaged areas has become a meaningful activity. These are not merely artistic performances but also journeys to disseminate cultural values, enrich spiritual life, and contribute to preserving the cultural identity of ethnic minorities.
