(HBO) – Capitalising on local socio-economic strengths, the Party organisation, authorities and people of Thach Yen commune, which is home to Cao Phong – Thach Yen revolutionary base, have made efforts to promote the building of new-style rural areas, helping create a facelift to the locality.
Investments have been made to develop
socio-economic infrastructure in Thach Yen commune, Cao Phong district.
According to Bui Minh Anh, former Secretary of
the Party organisation of Thach Yen commune, Cao Phong – Thach Yen is one of
the four revolutionary bases of Hoa Binh province, which belongs to the
Hoa-Ninh-Thanh revolutionary zone. It was recognised as a national historical
relic site by the Ministry of Culture and Information in 1996.
In late 1944, the regional Party Committee of
Bac Ky assigned Vu Tho to the region to popularise the nation’s revolution
among local ethnic communities, which paved the way for the establishment of
the Cao Phong – Thach Yen revolutionary base. In July 1945, Tho selected 30
young, tough and enthusiastic militiamen for military training courses in Cao
Phong – Thach Yen region.
On August 23, 1945, the delegation of the Cao
Phong – Thach Yen base coordinated with the army in Lac Son to enter Phuong
Lam, joining revolutionary forces in the whole province to seize power from the
enemy.
Over the years, upholding the revolutionary
tradition, the Party organisation, administration and locals of Thach Yen and
Hop Phong communes have bolstered solidarity to optimise the localities’
potentials and advantages to boost socio-economic development, improve locals’
living conditions, and ensure security and order.
Travel has been made easier for local residents
as roads have been concretised, while farmers are enjoying bumper crops of
fruits.
The commune has paid due heed to developing
culture, education and health care, with three out of the four schools meeting
the national standard at the first level, local medical station meeting
national standard, and more than 70% of households granted the title "cultured
families”.
Vice Chairman of the communal People’s Committee
Bui Van Hau said local livelihoods have been improved, and social security
maintained over the past time.
Thach Yen sees its economy grow 13.85%, and per
capita income reach 26 million VND (1,078 USD) a year. As the commune has met
15 out of the 19 new style rural area criteria, it is working to complete the
task of the new-style rural area building by 2024.
Speaking at a meeting with businesses, investors, and cooperatives on the occasion of the lunar new year, Chairman of the provincial People's Committee Bui Van Khanh affirmed that with the motto of the administration accompanying businesses, Hoa Binh always determines that the success of businesses is also that of the province; and their difficulties and problems are the responsibility of the Party Committees and authorities at all levels. That motto has created a landmark in the development process of the province as well as the local business community.
The Government Office has just issued Notice No. 179/TB-VPCP, dated April 23, 2024, on the conclusions of Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh at his meeting with the Standing Board of the Hoa Binh provincial Party Committee on April 13.
