Sunday, February 18, 2024

YBO - The People’s Committee of Tran Yen district held a ceremony in Quy Mong commune to launch the tree planting festival in commemoration of President Ho Chi Minh on the occasion of the Lunar New Year (Tet) on the morning of February 15, or the sixth day of the first lunar month.

In Spring 1960, the late leader initiated a movement calling on all people to participate in a tree planting festival. Since then, it has truly brought great benefits to the country and become a good custom of Vietnamese people during Tet and Spring.

For many years, Tran Yen has well organised tree planting and afforestation movements with the participation of the entire political system, and the active engagement of local people. The annual planted forest area is nearly 3,000 hectares, exceeding the assigned plan. The district's forest coverage has reached 70%.

The achievements have created a green, clean, and beautiful living environment for the locality, and affirmed its policy of not focusing on economic development at the expense of environment, in accordance with the spirit of the Resolution of the 19th provincial Party Congress in the 2020-2025 term.

In 2024, the province is striving to plant 15,000 hectares of forest and 4.72 million scattered trees, and maintain its forest coverage rate at 63%.
