Over the years, the Vietnam - Russia Friendship Association of Hung Yen province has not only contributed to fostering the traditional friendship between the two countries but also been an important support to accompany its members in economic development. The Association has implemented many practical activities to connect markets and support product consumption for its members who are entrepreneurs. With the spirit of solidarity, innovation and community orientation, the Association is actively contributing to the local socio-economic development.
After many years of living and working in Russia, in April 2001, Mr. Pham Xuan Pha, Thai Binh ward returned to his hometown and decided to start a business. He established Phuong Thanh Production, Import-Export Company Limited, creating jobs for thousands of local workers. Each year, the company achieves a total revenue of over 1 million USD, becoming one of the prestigious flower pot production and export establishments in the market.
Sharing about the idea of starting a business, Mr. Pha said: Grasping the consumer demand and development trends of capitalist countries, in Vietnam, there are many products that can be exported if properly invested. However, choosing to produce flower pots at that time was a very new direction because the number of businesses pursuing this industry was still small. Pioneering is always difficult, but the road is open and can develop long-term. After more than 24 years of construction and development, the Company has continuously innovated materials for producing flower pots, from reinforced cement, composite, granito grinding stone, lightweight cement, rubber to product lines made from wood to be safe for human health and environmentally friendly. Currently, Phuong Thanh Production, Import-Export Company Limited is focusing on investing in expanding an additional production line of items such as shelves, cabinets, tables, and chairs to increase productivity, create jobs for local workers and contribute to the economic development of the province.
Unlike Mr. Pham Xuan Pha, after returning from Russia, Mr. Nguyen Van Dung, Tran Hung Dao ward continued to work in a state agency. In 2014, when he retired, he decided to invest in opening 3 clean water supply factories, stably serving more than 8,000 households in Tan Thuan, Van Xuan and Vu Tien communes. With the desire to make a practical contribution to the community, he spent all his accumulated capital and borrowed from the bank to equip a system of machinery, pipes and water treatment technology that met the standards of the Ministry of Health .
Mr. Dung shared: The implementation of clean water plants in rural areas at that time faced many difficulties due to limited infrastructure, scattered people's needs, and complicated legal procedures. However, with the determination to bring quality water to every household, I persistently surveyed, selected a reasonable construction location, and directly supervised each construction stage. After being put into operation, the 3 plants have shown remarkable effectiveness, providing a stable and safe water source, contributing to improving the living standards and health of the community.
Not stopping there, in 2022, Mr. Nguyen Van Dung's family received and managed Hoa Thuy Tien Private Kindergarten, Tran Lam ward, expanding its contribution to local education and life, demonstrating a spirit of persistent social responsibility and attachment to the homeland.
Currently, the Vietnam - Russia Friendship Association of the province has 364 members operating in 14 branches. Mr. Vu Van Chien, Chairman of the Association, said: Every year, the Association has coordinated with the Central Vietnam - Russia Friendship Association to be provided with information and documents to learn, research, and update on Russian culture, the socio-economic situation and foreign relations, cooperation policies of the Russian Federation, especially the Russia - Vietnam relationship and the relationship between Russia and countries closely related to Vietnam, as a basis for propaganda and mobilizing members to participate. At the same time, introduce, connect, and help members who are businessmen annually export hundreds of containers of fine arts and handicrafts to American and European countries, including the Russian Federation, earning hundreds of millions of USD.
Along with that, actively participating in charity and humanitarian activities, giving Tet gifts to households that are relatives, families of martyrs, victims of Agent Orange/dioxin, poor households and near-poor households launched by the Provincial People's Committee and the Provincial Vietnam Fatherland Front Committee with a total amount of over 500 million VND per year. Thanks to the connection of the Vietnam - Russia Friendship Association of the province, many products of Thang Lien General Production and Trading Company Limited have been introduced and participated in exhibitions in Russia. This activity not only helps promote the brand, expand export markets but also promotes the improvement of production and business efficiency, creates opportunities for international cooperation, contributing to improving the competitiveness of enterprises.
Together with the efforts of the members - businessmen, it shows the important role of the Vietnam - Russia Friendship Association in accompanying members in economic development. Thanks to the support, connection and correct orientation, businesses not only improve production capacity, expand markets but also contribute positively to the socio-economic development of the locality, affirming the practical value of the spirit of cooperation and friendship.
