According to Chairman of the provincial Business Association Nguyen Cao Son, in
recent years, the province has focused on developing a synchronous transport
system; attracting investment in many important and potential areas such as the
national tourist area of the Da River, and eco-resorts and hot mineral water
springs in Lac Son and Kim Boi districts.
Last year, the local authorities approved and granted investment certificates
to 44 projects with a total registered capital of about 34.24 trillion VND,
surging by 208.4% compared to the amount of investment capital recorded in
2020.
Due to the sudden increase in investment projects, while the qualifications of
local officials and civil servants remained limited, so the settlement of
administrative documents and procedures has not yet met requirements of
investors, Son said.
In 2022, under the drastic direction of the provincial Party Committee and
People's Committee, since the beginning of the year, directive documents on
improving the investment and business environment and improving the PCI have
been issued.
Departments, sectors, districts and Hoa Binh city have developed plans and
carried out activities to improve component indicators.
The province has attracted many big investors such as Vingroup, Sun Group, Hoa
Phat, Geleximco, La Vong, Phu My Hung, Phu My, Lac Hong and Ho
Guom.
Many transport projects have been developed, including regional transport
projects approved by the National Assembly, contributing to promoting
socio-economic development of the province.
To further improve the PCI, the provincial People’s Council has proposed a
series of solutions, focusing on strengthening coordination in handling
procedures and documents between departments, sectors and localities;
elaborating master plans, and zoning and detailed plans as the basis for
implementing and proposing investment projects; supporting digital
transformation in businesses; and promoting the operation of investment and
development funds, and credit guarantee funds for small and medium-sized
enterprises.
With the motto of "polite, dedicated, professional, and lawful,” over the years, Phu Cuong commune in Tan Lac district has gradually improved the quality of processing administrative procedures, winning high satisfaction from local people and businesses.
Stretching over 300 meters, valued at hundreds of million dong and built to the new-style rural standards, a concrete road in De hamlet, Bac Phong commune, Cao Phong district, was completed by the end of 2023 thanks to the collective contributions of armed forces at provincial and district levels coupled with the active participation of military units stationed throughout the district.
Over the years, the People’s Committee of Lac Thuy district has issued many plans and programmes to speed up the administrative reform, aiming to better serve local people and businesses.
Kim Boi district is drafting 23 planning projects which are expected to help boost the local socio-economic development, attract investors, and mobilise resources for development, said Vice chairman of the district People’s Committee Tran Tuan Son.
They include the one on Bo urban area development until 2045, 20 zoning, and 12 on rural residential areas in communes.
This year, Hoa Binh province strives to have eight communes recognised as meeting new-style rural area standards and five communes satisfying exemplary new-style rural area standards. Since the beginning of the year, the provincial People's Committee has drastically directed the implementation of the national target programme on new-style rural area building to fulfil the set target.
Cao Phong district achieved positive socio-economic development results last year as drastic comprehensive measures were implemented with high determination of its whole political system, said the Secretary of the district Party Committee Ha Van Di.
