Although she has just taken on the position of President of the Investment and Startup Club of Tien Yen district, Ms. Le Thi Bich Hanh (born in 1985), CEO of Tien Yen Golden Flower Tea, has become a role model, an inspiration, and a motivation for young people in the district to start a business for many years with her own dynamic, creative, daring to think and dare to do spirit.
Before becoming an entrepreneur, Ms. Le Thi Bich Hanh was known as a dedicated preschool teacher, passionate about many generations of students. Having been in the teaching profession for 18 years, including 10 years working in highland schools and disadvantaged villages of the district, witnessing the difficult and arduous lives of the villagers, and the lack of children going to school, Ms. Hanh has been inspired to nurture her own business plans.
Ms. Hanh shared: 10 years working in the highland communes is the time when I have experienced many things. From Yen Than commune to Dai Duc, during the days working here, I had the opportunity to travel a lot, know a lot and see the natural beauty and traditional culture of the people of my hometown. Being a person who is passionate about traveling and exploring, I cherish the idea of developing a community tourism model in the scenic area of Pac Sui waterfall (Yen Than commune) and producing Tien Yen's golden flower tea grown and harvested by the people from the natural forest. Through that, I hope to exploit the potential and advantages of my hometown, help local youth learn, boldly develop the economy, strive to build a prosperous life and, most of all, have more resources to help people in difficult circumstances, children in the highland communes to be cared for more fully.
Thinking is doing, in 2021, Ms. Hanh started to establish Tien Yen Agricultural Products Processing and Consumption Cooperative - Tien Yen Golden Flower Tea Production. Along with purchasing tea to help people have a stable consumption output, Ms. Hanh invested in machinery, self-study, researched methods of drying camellias, promoted product introduction through district and provincial OCOP fairs, trade promotion programs, direct sales and online channels. On average, each year, the cooperative produces nearly 2 quintals of dried camellias, bringing in a profit of about 1 billion VND, gradually creating a foothold in the golden flower tea market of Quang Ninh.
Also in 2021, while stabilizing the operations of the newly established cooperative, with her acumen, Ms. Hanh continued to research and determined to develop a community tourism model, building Pac Sui homestay to be able to put it into operation immediately after the Covid-19 epidemic situation was under control.
Up to now, after 3 years of operation, Pac Sui homestay has become a favorite stop for tourists when coming to Tien Yen. Coming to Pac Sui homestay, visitors will be immersed in the fresh, open space of the mountains and forests, immersed in the cool water of Pac Sui waterfall on hot summer days, feeling peaceful and serene moments, leaving behind all the worries and concerns of life. At the same time, enjoy unique cuisine from local agricultural products such as Tien Yen chicken, khau nhuc, nodding cake, yellow flower tea...; soak your feet in Dao medicinal leaves; light a campfire, rent traditional costumes to take photos and check-in, learn about ethnic culture with the locals...
Not only passionate about her work, Ms. Hanh also actively participates in charity activities as Vice President of Tien Yen Charity Club. With the desire to help poor children, those in difficult circumstances who are less fortunate in life continue to rise up, from 2015 to now, Ms. Hanh has become a bridge connecting businesses, units, and philanthropists to regularly maintain activities of sponsoring poor children, supporting house construction and repair for especially disadvantaged households, visiting and giving gifts to poor households in the district on holidays and Tet...
In particular, after the recent impacts of storm No. 3, she and the club members quickly mobilized resources to support and help a family repair their house worth 30 million VND; donated 6 tons of rice, 600 boxes of instant noodles and 400 gifts including necessities and necessary household items to households that suffered heavy damage to their housing and production and business activities.
Being dedicated to doing a good job as a teacher every day, being quick and dynamic in the role of a young entrepreneur as well as spending time taking good care of the family, certainly no matter who it is, it will be difficult and hard. However, for Ms. Hanh, being able to live, strive and try to do what she loves is the joy and motivation for her to continue to move forward and inspire and give positive energy to young people to be more confident on the path of establishing themselves, starting a business, contributing and dedicating more to the community, homeland and country. She was honored to receive a certificate of merit from the Quang Ninh Provincial Party Committee in the emulation movement "Young Party members doing good economics" in 2023 and many certificates of merit from the province and district for her achievements in work and emulation movements in school years...
