In autumn 76 years ago, following the call of the Party and President Ho Chi
Minh, people in Hoa Binh rose up to overthrow the colonial and feudal
administration and regain the ownership of the country and their destiny.
Since the National Day of that year, in many localities across the province,
people have made the National Day their Independence Festival.
The landscape in Hoa Binh and the living conditions of locals have seen great
changes through the years. From a low starting point, Hoa Binh has risen
up to catch up with the country's reform cause. The province has completed the
majority of targets set in the resolution of the 16th provincial Party
Congress. The infrastructure system has been developed, while locals have
gained increasing benefits from policies from the Party and State.
The average per capita income of locals has been higher than the average level
in the northern mountainous region. Hoa Binh has been leading the region in
new-style rural area building. In recent years, the province has drawn billions
of USD in investment in projects in tourism, ecological urban and industrial
areas.
The standing board of the provincial Party Committee has reformed its
operations for higher efficiency in implementing the dual targets in preventing
the spreading of COVID-19 and boosting socio-economic development at the same
time with fruitful results.
The province has recorded positive achievements socio-economic development in
the first six months of this year with gross regional domestic product (GRDP)
hitting about 16.1 percent. Of which, contributions of agro-forestry-fisheries
were 19.92 percent, industry-construction 44.45 percent, services 30.55
percent, tax collection 5.08 percent.
The development planning of province as well as sectors is in the making, while
e-commerce activities and postal and insurance services have seen big leaps,
optimising the advantages of the province amid the pandemic situation which
hindered traditional trade activities.
Meanwhile, trade promotion activities have been strengthened in a more
effective and practical manner. Many policies have been designed to support
investors and businesses. Many investors have shown interest in Hoa Binh’s
urban development and tourism sectors. At the same time, progress has also been
seen in socio-cultural activities, while defence and security have been ensured
and social security, order and safety has been maintained.
