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.
Road in Mo Da hamlet, Bo town in Kim Boi district, upgraded and expanded to serve local tourism development.
According to the spatial development orientation of Hoa Binh province by 2020 with a vision to 2030, Kim Boi is located in Sub-Region 2 in the east and south of the province. It’s the province’s sub-region for industry - tourism - trade - agriculture - forestry development. The district connects to important national economic corridors such as Ho Chi Minh Highway, National Highway 21, and National Highway 12B and adjacent to Hanoi and the provinces of Ha Nam, Thanh Hoa, and Ninh Binh. In addition, the district is located on the main economic corridor Luong Son - Kim Boi - Lac Thuy which borders Hanoi.
Planning is identified as one of the strategic breakthroughs to successfully implement the targets set by the Resolution of the 17th provincial Party Congress. It is expected to help attract investment and boost local socioeconomic development. Therefore, the Kim Boi district People's Committee continues to allocate resources to soon complete the appraisal dossier. However, according to the committee, to increase their efficiency, general planning and zoning need to be integrated with other specialised plans. This requires further coordination between localities, departments, and agencies to promptly remove difficulties and obstacles.
Planning is an important legal tool to manage and mobilise resources and ensure long-term development. It will be a basis to build medium-term public investment plans, construction plans, urban–rural development plans, and specialised technical plans in the district.
Son affirmed that the district will prioritise resources to complete the planning work which is considered one of its key tasks now.
Hoa Binh province currently has 134 non-agricultural cooperatives, accounting for representing 26.8% of the local total cooperatives. Of them, 42 are in industry and handicrafts, 10 in construction, 13 in electricity, 20 in trade and services, 6 in environmental sanitation services, 14 in transportation, 10 in tourism, and 19 in other fields.
Digital transformation in building new-style rural areas aims to gradually establish smart rural areas, enhance community activity efficiency, and contribute to making the National Target Programme on Building New-style Rural Areas more effective and sustainable. Hoa Binh province has implemented many models and programmes on digital transformation in rural areas, gradually meeting the requirements of comprehensive digital transformation.
Lac Thuy district made a breakthrough in the land redistribution work during 2020-2023 to develop large-scale fields, creating favourable conditions for businesses, cooperatives, and other economic sectors to invest in the production of agricultural commodities, and helping improve productivity and income for farmers.
In 2016, Yen Tri commune in Yen Thuy district was recognised as a new-style rural area in 2016, an advanced new-style rural area in 2020 and a model new-style rural area in 2021, respectively. It is the first and only commune in the province meeting the criteria for model new-style rural areas.
Aside from engaging in agricultural sector, there still some non-agricultural occupations that are suitable for women, especially ethnic minority women in rural areas. Based on the demand of learners, agencies and units in Yen Thuy district have implemented vocational training programmes that associate with employment opportunities and meet demand of labour market.
Over recent years, the People's Committee of Lac Son district has implemented various policies to support vocational training in traditional industry cooperatives, especially in ethnic minority areas. As a result, many households have get rid of poverty. Vocational training and startup support projects have also helped create numerous new jobs, increase income for workers, improve living conditions, and create conditions for sustainable development in the ethnic minority areas of the district.
