(HBO) - Programme 135, one of the component projects of the National Target Programme on Sustainable Poverty Reduction, is a proof of the sound policies of the Party and State for remote and disadvantaged areas. Its implementation over the past years has brought practical benefits to ethnic minority groups in Hoa Binh province.
In
2019, poor households in Huu Loi commue (Yen Thuy district) were provided with chicken under a project to support production
and diversify livelihood in the locality.
Hoa Binh was allocated 170.2 trillion VND from the State budget for
implementing the programme in 2019. The capital was used for constructing infrastructure
systems, supporting production activities, diversifying livelihoods, expanding effective
poverty reduction models, maintaining infrastructure works after construction,
and improving capacity of grassroots officials and the community.
Accordingly, as many as 288 infrastructure works for transport, irrigation,
health, school and water supply were constructed.
Meanwhile, the programme provided 12,500 poor and near households, and target
groups in Hoa Binh with over 299,750 young trees, 3,546 kg of food crop seeds,
over 122,400 young cattle and poultry, 46,369 tonnes of fertilizers, 17,466
doses of veterinary medicine, along with materials and tools for agricultural
production.
The programme also helped develop eight agricultural production
models in the locality.
In 2020, over 118 trillion VND has been allocated to the locality under
Programme 135 to implement 30 unfinished projects and 170 new ones. Meanwhile,
an estimated 7.43 trillion VND will be disbursed for repairing and upgrading completed
infrastructure works; 26.85 trillion VND for supporting production activities, and
7 billion VND for improving the capacity of grassroots officials and the
community.
These investments are quite important for promoting development in
disadvantaged communes.
In the 2018-2019 period, the agencies and organisations assigned to implement
Programme 135 conducted many practical and effective activities to promote socio-economic
development and poverty reduction in disadvantaged communes and villages. As
many as six communes with 73 villages completed targets of the programme.
Accordingly, the provincial People’s Committee requested agencies and units to help
communes effectively implement the support for disadvantaged villages and hamlets;
and continue to provide assistance for areas that had already realised
objectives of the programme for the period 2017-2020./.

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.
