On May 15, the Hoa Binh Steering Committee for Science, Technology, Innovation, and Digital Transformation launched the "Digital Literacy for All” movement. The event was held both in-person and virtually, connecting provincial authorities with district-level Party committees and local communities across communes, wards, and townships.

press the buttons to launch the "Digital Literacy for All” movement.
The event drew Bui The Duy, alternate Member of
the Party Central Committee and Deputy Minister of Science and Technology, as
well as senior officials from the National Authority of Digital Transformation.
Delegates at the provincial levels included Nguyen Phi Long, alternate Member
of the Party Central Committee and Secretary of the provincial Party Committee,
Bui Thi Minh, Permanent Deputy Secretary of the provincial Party Committee, and
Bui Duc Hinh, Deputy Secretary of the provincial Party Committee and Chairman
of the provincial People’s Committee.
Also present were provincial department leaders,
National Assembly deputies of Hoa Binh, business representatives, technology
experts, and local students and residents.
Attendees explored an exhibition featuring "Make
in Vietnam” technologies aimed at promoting digital government, economy, and
society. Companies such as VNPT Group, Viettel Group, FPT Corporation,
MobiFone, MISA, MedCAT JSC, Thánh Gióng Media & Computer Company, and Dell
Vietnam showcased technologies contributing to national and local digital
transformation, improving public services, governance, and economic
development.
The event reinforced Hoa Binh’s commitment to
the objectives outlined in Politburo Resolution No. 57-NQ/TW issued on December
22, 2024 by the Politburo on accelerating science, technology, innovation, and
digital transformation. By bringing together government leaders, businesses,
and experts, the festival aimed to ensure digital services are practical and
accessible to all citizens.
In his speech, Nguyen Phi Long, alternate Member
of the Party Central Committee and Secretary of the provincial Party Committee,
emphasised the role of science and technology in economic growth. He
highlighted the province's achievements, such as the 40% Total Factor
Productivity (TFP) in 2024 and the expansion of broadband internet, with 100%
of communes now connected to high-speed fibre-optic networks and 4G coverage
reaching 96% of areas.
Hoa Binh also deployed digital platforms across
all levels of government, improving service efficiency and accessibility. More
than 85% of administrative documents are now submitted online, and the province
consistently ranks in the top 10 for service quality.
Despite progress, Long acknowledged barriers to
digital transformation and stressed the need for continued awareness-raising
and training to make digital tools accessible to everyone, especially
vulnerable groups.
Bui The Duy, Deputy Minister of Science and
Technology, praised Hoa Binh’s implementation of Resolution 57-NQ/TW and
highlighted the importance of digital transformation in the province’s growth.
He noted that as the province continues to restructure and develop its economy,
digital tools will be crucial for progress.
Digital transformation is not about complex
technology but about practical solutions that improve daily life, Duy said,
calling for ongoing engagement from all sectors.
At the event, Hoa Binh’s police introduced the
VNeID app, which simplifies online public services. Youth volunteers, in
collaboration with local police and telecom companies, assisted residents at
Phuong Lam Market in using digital services.
Experts shared solutions for Hoa Binh’s digital
transformation. VNPT presented AI and big data applications for governance and
economic development. MISA showcased a "Make in Vietnam” platform to drive innovation.
FPT demonstrated smart cameras using AI and IoT
for security, while Viettel discussed a proactive e-governance platform for
smarter public services, MobiFone shared AI-driven tools for digital
transformation, and MedCAT introduced a platform to digitise unstructured data.
The Standing Board of the Hoa Binh provincial Party Committee has held a conference to announce the provincial Party Committee’s decision about the merger of Hoa Binh Newspaper and the provincial Radio and Television Station, along with the Standing Board’s appointment decisions.
After the historic victory on April 30, 1975, which liberated the South and reunified the country, the whole Vietnam embarked on a new mission — promoting peace and reconstructing the nation with century-defining projects. On the fierce Da River, over 30,000 engineers, sappers, and construction workers battled against rocky mountains and raging floods to achieve a remarkable feat. The Hoa Binh Hydropower Plant, the largest of its kind in Southeast Asia at that time, officially began generating electricity, lighting up the North and ushering in a new era of industrialisation.
Muong Dong in Kim Boi district, one of the four major Muong regions in Hoa Binh province, is harnessing its revolutionary legacy and cultural heritage to drive socio-economic transformation.
Throughout April, the joyful atmosphere of the 50th anniversary of the Liberation of the South and National Reunification spread nationwide. Together with the whole country, residents in Hoa Binh city also expressed their patriotism through meaningful and practical actions.
When requesting personal document verification and certification service at the one-stop-shop service section of Dong Tam Commune in Lac Thuy district, Nguyen Thanh Long, a resident of Dong Bong village, was both surprised and pleased with the professionalism and attitude of civil servants working there.
Hoa Binh province has harnessed its rich cultural heritage and human potential to forge the path towards sustainable development in the new era.
