foreign-funded ones worth about 616.32 million USD and 616 domestic-invested
projects valued at some 109.545 trillion VND (4.78 billion USD).
According to the provincial Department of Planning and Investment, overall, the
operations of completed projects have significantly promoted the province’s
socio-economic development; improved the value of its industrial production,
commerce, services and agriculture; contributed to the provincial budget; and
created jobs for local workers.
In the 2021-2025 period, the province targets an average annual economic growth
rate of 9 percent and higher as well as the attraction of approximately 80
trillion VND worth of domestic investment and about 1 billion USD of foreign
capital. By 2025, industrial zones and clusters are expected to cover about 1
percent of the province's natural area.

2022 as a pivotal year to accelerate the local efforts. It is necessary to
further improve Hoa Binh’s business climate and to drastically direct the
construction of eight large projects, the body noted.

departments and sectors need to coordinate with local authorities to well solve
resettlement problems for households whose lands are acquired, Liem requested.

Investment, informed that his department has actively advised the provincial
People's Committee to issue a plan on business climate improvement for 2022. It
