Hang Kia and Pa Co are two communes with significant defense and security position of Hoa Binh province and the Northwestern region at large. Over 6,000 people, 98.6 % of which are of the Hmong ethnic minority, live in the mountainous and remote areas of the two communes.

Over the past time, the police of Hoa Binh province and Mai Chau district made a list of families in the two communes in need of housing support. Meanwhile, house designs were drawn and the total funding for the housing project was estimated.
