(HBO) – Hoa Binh province has taken drastic, strong solutions to push ahead with the disbursement of public investment, and speed up the implementation of important projects, especially those on infrastructure.
The road linking National Highway 6 with
Chi Lang Road in Hoa Binh city opens up new urban development space and helps
to spur local socio-economic development.
The investment capital sourced from the State
budget and assigned by the Prime Minister to Hoa Binh this year stands at 4.48
trillion VND (190.17 million USD). Meanwhile, the amount approved by the
provincial People’s Council is 5.24 trillion VND, which has been allocated to
projects.
As of October 31, 2022, some 2.25 trillion VND
in public investment had been disbursed, completing 51% of the target set by
the PM.
Apart from effectively using the State budget,
the province has mobilised capital sources for key infrastructure projects,
with priorities given to major areas, inte-regional transport infrastructure,
rural transport, infrastructure at industrial parks and clusters, urban areas
and tourist destinations.
Under the strategy on the development of
industrial parks and clusters in Hoa Binh province for 2021-2030 with a vision
towards 2050, the locality will have eight industrial parks with a total area
of over 1,507 hectares.
There will be four new industrial parks in Cao
Phong, Yen Thuy, Lac Son and Da Bac districts, covering 1,493 hectares, raising
the total number to 12 with a combined area of around 3,000 hectares.
Since the beginning of this year, Hoa Binh has
counted 722 valid projects that do not use the State budget, of which 37 are
foreign-invested worth 608 million USD, and 685 are invested by domestic firms
with 180.58 trillion VND./.
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.
