Quach Tat Liem, Vice Chairman of the provincial
People’s Committee concludes the working session.
According to a report
by the Yen Thuy People’s Committee, over the years, industry and handicraft
production of Yen Thuy has seen progress, but growth in production value is
still low at about 6 percent per year in the 2016-2020 period.
In the first quarter
of 2021, the value of the district’s industry sector reached 317 billion VND,
up 7.1 percent year on year. So far, Yen Thuy has 15 companies, three
cooperatives and 560 facilities operating in industry-handicraft sector.
As of April 19, total State
budget collection in the district was 31.61 billion VND, fulfilling 24 percent
of the target. Collection from taxes, fees and other sources was 16.25 billion
VND, while that from land use fee was over 15 billion VND.
The People’s Committee
of Yen Thuy proposed that the provincial People’s Committee of Hoa Binh and
departments and sectors support the district in attracting investment in Lac
Thinh industrial park, while excluding unfeasible projects such as the Hang
Tram industrial cluster out of the industrial park planning.
The district asked for
permission to expand the acreage of Lac Thinh IP from 220 hectares to about 830
hectares in 2030, along with adding the 550-hectare Bao Hieu IP to the IP
planning.
It also asked for early
allocation of funding for the district to implement a project to upgrade the
power supply system in remote and extremely difficult areas in the province.
Concluding the session,
Liem lauded the achievements that Yen Thuy has gained in implementing
socio-economic development goals, with a number of targets exceeding the set
goals. However, he pointed out that the district has yet to optimise its
potential and advantages in geographical location and transport.
He asked the district
to direct relevant agencies to coordinate with departments and sectors to
improve planning work, with special attention paid to major transport projects,
thus creating motivation for development.
