(HBO) - The People’s Committee of Hoa Binh province has recently hosted a conference to discuss measures to improve the provincial Competitiveness Index (PCI) in 2022.
Secretary of the provincial Party Committee Ngo Van Tuan speaks at the conference.
In his
speech at the event, Chairman of the provincial People’s Committee Bui Van
Khanh asked leaders of departments, sectors, and localities to make more
efforts to further improve the locality’s PCI in the coming time.
In 2021 and the first six months of 2022, the provincial authorities issued
many documents on measures to improve the business environment and
competitiveness of the locality.
Working groups have been also established to support investors in speeding up
the progress of investment projects.
A series of meetings have been regularly organised to seek solutions to remove
obstacles and difficulties facing businesses and investors, especially
production and business establishments affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.
At the conference, experts said there remains a large room for Hoa Binh to
better its PCI, adding that the local authorities should pay more attention to
improving the Public Administration Reform (PAR) Index and the Provincial
Governance and Public Administration PerformanceIndex(PAPI), and
effectively apply the set of indicators to evaluate the competitiveness of departments,
sectors, People's Committees of districts and Hoa Binh city.
Hoa Binh should further promote digital transformation to handle issues related
to inclusive development, especially improving the quality of planning, they
added./.

Hoa Binh province’s economy posted an impressive Gross Regional Domestic Product (GRDP) growth rate of 12.67% in the first quarter of 2025, representing a 12.76% year-on-year increase, the highest rate recorded since the beginning of the current tenure, according to the provincial Statistics Office. This robust growth reflects years of strategic groundwork and sets a strong foundation for the province’s annual growth target of over 10%.
With a focus on cash crop farming with science - technology application and brand building, Lac Thuy district is gradually increasing production value, improving people's life quality, and laying the foundation for sustainable socio-economic development.
In recent years, the economic development model "Hoa Binh Earthworm Farm” run by Mr. Bui Van Dang in Co Giua Hamlet, My Thanh Commune (Lac Son district) has not only brought stable economic value but it is also environmentally friendly, helping to protect and reduce pollution, contributing to the construction of a green and sustainable agriculture.
Dao Village’s honey – a product certified with a 3-star OCOP (One Commune One Product) rating by Thong Nhat Agricultural Cooperative in Dao Village (Hoa Binh City) – is highly regarded by consumers for its quality, richness, and variety in packaging. The distinctively sweet taste of Dao Village’s honey leaves a lasting impression on anyone who has tried it.
In alignment with Project No. 07-DA/TU, issued by the Hoa Binh provincial Party Committee on November 1, 2021, Lac Thuy district has actively promoted investment and supported the sustainable development of its industrial and handicraft sectors during the 2021–2025 period. Alongside this, the district has remained committed to preserving and revitalising traditional craft villages.
Located in the northern part of Lac Thuy district, with a temperate climate and fertile soil, Phu Thanh commune has great potential and advantages in growing tea. The long-standing experience, combined with strict adherence to organic farming practices in the tea gardens, ensures that the dried tea products from Phu Thanh and Lac Thuy as a whole are sold out immediately upon production, providing a stable and prosperous life for the local people.
