(HBO) – When arriving in Luc 3 village, Yen Nghiep commune, Lac Son district of Bac Giang province and asking about Bui Van Vi, you can get the answer from anyone with admiration. Not only being a dynamic secretary of the local chapter of the Ho Chi Minh Communist Youth Union (HCM CYU), he is also a role model for young people in doing business, reaping success in his hometown.
After spending time researching and
learning from effective household economic models, in 2010, with the support of
the local HCM CYU chapter, he borrowed money to build a farm growing wood trees,
sugar cane and cassava combining with raising fish and pigs.
Bui Van Vi said he met many difficulties
at the start, due to a lack of experience and technique, and limited market. However,
he was undaunted and continued to learn by joining training courses on new
scientific and technological advances, and participating
in programmes organized by the HCM CYU to
visit effective economic models.
At present, his farm has expanded to
more than 3 hectares of fish pond, 7 hectares of ironwood forest, 2 hectares of
cassava, more than 1 hectare of purple sugarcane and a pig breeding farm.
According to Vi, his farm creates jobs for 10 young people in the village with
an income of 2.5 to 3 million VND per person per month. Subtracting the cost,
each year, he earns from 300 to 400 million VND.
At the end of 2017, Bui Van Vi from Yen Nghiep commune
of Lac Son (first, left) expanded the scale of the farm by growing native
chickens, increasing income for his family.
In order to persuade local youngsters to settle
down in the home village, over the past years, the provincial HCM CYU chapter has implemented many activities,
focusing on providing vocational guidance and training as well as job
introduction, thus helping young people to rise out of poverty and improve the
living conditions for their families, contributing to local economic
development. In addition, being aware that the biggest difficulty for young
people when starting a business is capital, during 2012- 2017, the HCM CYU chapters at all levels in the province
cooperated with the Vietnam Bank for Social Policies to help young households access
preferential loans.
Pham Thi Ngoc Anh, deputy head of the Committee
for Youth Solidarity and Assembling said that currently, HCM CYU chapters in the province have helped 24,000 young families access loans worth nearly
562 billion VND through 667 credit groups. The provincial HCM CYU chapter also lent over 1.1 billion VND from the HCM CYU Central Committee’s job creation
fund to 32 business projects of local young people./.
In recent years, Thung Nai commune on has undergone significant changes in its appearance, landscape, and lives of local residents. Road 435 from Hoa Binh City to Tan Lac district’s Suoi Hoa commune, passing through the Thung Nai commune, has helped attract many tourists to the area.
A seminar on promoting the startup movement among high school students has been held recently by the provincial Department of Education and Training and the Vietnam National University of Agriculture at Tan Lac High School in Tan Lac district of Hoa Binh province.
In the morning of April 24th, at Uncle Ho’s Monument on Hoa Binh Hydroelectric Project, Vietnam Youth Federation coordinated with Hoa Binh Youth Federation to organize the journey "I love my Fatherland” to celebrate the 70th anniversary of Dien Bien Phu Victory.
From the fact that the market takes place only every Tuesday, Bo market in Van Son commune (Tan Lac) officially takes place every Sunday from March 24. Thereby, the aim is to turn the market into a place promoting the cultural identity of Muong people in Hoa Binh and the consumption of goods and products of the neighboring communes, meeting the needs of tourists for the local products when travelling to Van Son at weekends.
Nguyen Van Toan, Vice Chairman of the provincial People's Committee, chaired a meeting of the Steering Committee on Population and Development.
