A working team from the Hoa Binh Party Committee led by Nguyen Phi Long, alternate member of the Party Central Committee and Secretary of the provincial Party Committee, inspected the preservation and promotion of the cultural values of the Muong culture and the making of planning for a reservation space for the Muong culture in Phong Phu commune of Tan Lac district on March 6.
Nguyen Phi Long, alternate member of the Party Central Committee and Secretary
of the Hoa Binh Party Committee and the working team, inspect the design of
planning for the Muong culture preservation space at Luy Ai village, Phong Phu
commune of Tan Lac district.
In order to preserve and promote the cultural identity of the Muong ethnic
minority community in the district, Tan Lac has issued many resolutions, plans
and projects aiming to enhance the awareness of local officials, Party members
and the community in the work.
Along with maintaining the values of traditional houses, costumes and
traditional practices of Muong people, the locality has paid great attention to
traditional Muong festivals such as Khai ha festival, Ke Pagoda festival, and
fishing festival.
However, the efforts have faced many difficulties, including the inefficient
use of resources in some projects and shortcomings in optimising mechanisms and
policies as well as cultural heritages for tourism development.
The district has asked for support from the province in building the Muong
cultural space project in Luy Ai commune, as well as support to artisans and
practitioners of typical cultural heritages of the Muong community.
Long and the working team visited Ai hamlet in Phong Phu district, in which
cultural values and living spaces of the Muong people are being maintained.
In 2008, Ai hamlet was recognised by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and
Tourism as a typical traditional village of ethnic minority groups and a
village representing the Muong group. In 2027, as part of a project to pilot
the merging and completion of residential areas of Hoa Binh, Ai and Luy
villages were merged into Luy Ai village with more than 200 households and 930
people, 97% of whom are from Muong ethnic minority group.
The former Ai village is home to 19 out of the 34 traditional tilt houses,
becoming a community-based tourism site.
The Muong culture preservation space is designed on 125 hectares with a tourism
service centre, hotels, farms, festival spaces, homestays, resorts, residential
areas, and nature exploring areas.
Long lauded the efforts of the Party Committee, administration, and people of
Tan Lac and relevant agencies in protecting and promoting traditional values of
Muong people.
He asked Tan Lac to coordinate closely with departments, sectors and agencies
to ensure the quality and long-term vision of the planning, with special
attention to maintaining the traditional culture of the Muong people and
preserving the landscape, architecture, customs, lifestyle, and cultural
heritage of the community in the former Ai hamlet, and expanding tourism
spaces. Alongside, the locality should design policies to mobilise resources
for the construction of infrastructure system and sustainable exploitation of
values of the Muong culture for sustainable tourism development and improving
locals’ livelihood, he stressed.
The Standing Board of the Hoa Binh provincial Party Committee has agreed in principle on a proposal by the Standing Board of the Party Committee of Hoa Binh city to gather feedback on the city’s 1:2000 zoning plan, which forms part of its broader urban development strategy.
Hoa Binh province has made notable progress in public administration reform and digital government development, with the satisfaction index among citizens and businesses reaching over 84%, according to recent government evaluations.
Thanks to great efforts by local authorities in recent times, the governance and public administration performance of Mai Chau district has been significantly improved.
In the afternoon of June 6, the Party Committee, the People's Council, the People's Committee and the Fatherland Front of Lac Son district solemnly held a meeting to celebrate the 139th anniversary of the district's founding (1886–2025) and the 79th anniversary of the establishment of the district's Party Committee (1946–2025). There was the attendance of Mr. Bui Van Thang, the Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Council; Mr. Quach Tat Liem, the Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee; Ms. Dang Bich Ngoc, the Deputy Head of the National Assembly Delegation of the province; as well as the former leaders of the province and district through various periods, who are the natives of the district.
Implementing the Politburo’s Resolution No. 57-NQ/TW on breakthroughs in science – technology, innovation, and digital transformation is a golden opportunity for the northern mountainous province of Hoa Binh to renew growth model, improve competitive edge and shorten digital gap.

In Hoa Binh province, this spirit is not just a slogan, it’s being put into action through concrete initiatives that form a "new development triangle”: digital citizenship, digital economy, and digital administration.
