(HBO) – If Luong Son district is considered the core of Hoa Binh province’s economic momentum zone, Luong Son township is expected to be the district’s development engine, as it gathers all the quintessence of the new-style rural district of Luong Son.


Infrastructure in downtown Luong Son township, Luong Son district, has been built synchronously to meet trade and service development demand in the 2020 – 2025 period.

In the 2015 – 2020 tenure, an outstanding achievement of Luong Son township’s Party organisation, administration, and people was that the locality and its expanded area was recognised as a fourth-tier city in late 2019. This has created more momentum for it to develop on par with its status as the political, economic and social centre of Luong Son district while forming a solid foundation for the establishment of the district-level Luong Son town in the near future as targeted by the provincial Party Committee’s Standing Board in Resolution No 06-NQ/TU.

During the eight years of implementing this resolution, Luong Son district has mobilised resources for developing its central area, whose core is Luong Son township. Thanks to different capital sources, infrastructure in the township has gradually gained a facelift and met criteria of a fourth-tier city.

Serving as the eastern gateway of Hoa Binh province, Luong Son district is traversed by National Highway 6 and 21 as well as Ho Chi Minh Road, thus becoming a link between the Red River Delta and northwestern Vietnam. It is also directly adjacent to the Capital Region and classified as one of the important satellite cities in the region’s development strategy. These are outstanding advantages in the industrialisation and modernisation-oriented development strategy of the district.

Following the district’s common strategy, Luong Son township, as the development engine, and its expanded area is geared towards an urban area with industrialised and modernised agriculture and countryside, thereby helping Luong Son district become a district-level town in the time ahead.

Hoang Viet Hai, Secretary of the Luong Son township Party Committee, said in the 2020 – 2025 tenure, the local Party organisation will continue working hard to realise the set targets and be determined to turn the township into a dynamic economic zone of the district.

The resolution of the township’s 9th Party Congress targets that by 2025, industry and craft industry will account for 35 percent of the local economy, services and trade 55 percent, and agriculture – forestry – fisheries 10 percent. Besides, the budget revenue is hoped to grow by 15 percent each year and annual per capita income to reach 83 million VND (3,600 USD).

Luong Son township will also push ahead with concertedly implementing infrastructure investment solutions in its central area along with socio-economic plans so as to deserve its role as the development engine of Luong Son district./.
