Exercise of Human Rights among H’Mong Ethnic Compatriots in the Northwest Region: Realities and Solutions (Part 2 and end)

5/9/18
In order to address the aforementioned limitations and better ensure human rights of the H’Mong compatriots in the Northwest region, it is important to realize synchronous measures as follows.
1. Promoting education and propaganda to raise people’s awareness of the Party’s standpoint and State’s policies and law on human rights, rights and obligations of citizens, and fine nature of our regime, thus providing knowledge and skills, consolidating belief, and helping compatriots to be cognisant of their rights, the significance and value of these rights, and know how to protect their interests. Education and propaganda also serve to enable compatriots to recognize their sense of obligation to comply with the law, gradually get rid of erroneous understanding and be sufficiently self-aware to adjust their behaviour with the aim of minimizing violations of human rights; respect other people’s dignity, rights and freedom; and be capable of recognizing and countering the hostile forces’ plots and artifices to incite hatred and division within society. Being one of the peoples whose traditional cultural identity less fall to oblivion, localities should pay attention to preserving cultural values of the H’Mong and creating favourable conditions for the compatriots to bring into play fine features in terms of culture, art, customs, and habits, particularly in festivals such as Nao Song, Gau Tao or Sapa love market. This is both a channel of propaganda and activities to realize human rights of the H’Mong effectively.
2. Ministries and branches need to continue to amend and supplement mechanisms and policies on sustainable poverty reduction for the Northwest region. Localities in the region should work out plans to effectively use resources provided by the programme of rapid and sustainable poverty alleviation according to the spirit of the Government’s Resolution 30a/2008/NQ-CP, dated 27 December 2008, on the Programme of Rapid and Sustainable Poverty Reduction for 61 poor districts; Programme to Implement Decision 167/2008/QD-TTg, dated 12 December 2008, of the Prime Minister on the Policy on Assisting Poor Households with Housing; and other programmes and investment projects in this area. At the same time, they need to step up agricultural transformation from self-supply to commercial production; exploit every potential and advantage of the Northwest region in terms of agriculture, forestry, processing industry, tourism, and services; and actively apply science and technologies to production  and work, especially vocational training. Apart from developing suitable manufacturing models and aiding compatriots in breeds of crops and domestic animals, production materials, and techniques, it is important to advertise the H’Mong people’s products, including fruits, cuisine, utensils, etc., to attract tourists and enable compatriots to sell their products and commodities, thus helping compatriots to achieve hunger alleviation and poverty reduction by themselves, get rich in a sustainable way, and become masters of their own life.
3. Strengthening population management and countering free migration. Free migration represents a factor that has ill effects on the implementation of human rights. Therefore, it needs to be restricted and stopped completely. The H’Mong people’s free migration is attributed to many causes, which may include their inherent habit of living temporarily, lack of cultivated land or plots of reactionary organizations in exile to incite insecurity, socio-political instability and forth. Consequently, localities should closely monitor changes in the numbers of household members and inhabitants to timely detect, classify and deal with free migration. Also, it is important to bring into play the integrated strength of the whole political system and communities, especially the role of village patriarchs, village chiefs, prestigious men in localities, and former migrants in propagandizing people to overcome short-term difficulties and work actively to have a better life in their own land. Besides, it is necessary to closely combine with economic, administrative measures to return free migrants to planned areas; and escalate inspection to timely discover, prevent and deal with organizations and individuals who exploit ethnic, religious issues and compatriots’ difficulties to embroil, incite and broker free migration. Moreover, the Government needs to check the system of legal normative acts to remove conflicting, overlapping or unsuitable legal documents; propose amendment to the system of policies and law on human rights to ensure its consonance with geographical, cultural characteristics and understanding of minority ethnic people.
The aforementioned solutions are basic issues that levels, branches and localities may consult and apply to contribute to improving quality and effectiveness of ensuring human rights of the H’Mong’ ethnic compatriots in the Northwest provinces at the present time. They are both objectives and drivers to promote socioeconomic development and play vital role in firmly preserving political stability and strengthening national defence and security in the areas.
