HBO) – Hoa Binh city witnessed an important development milestone right at the beginning of 2020 when the Party Organisation of Hoa Binh province decided to set up the city’s Party Organisation in accordance with Resolution 830, dated December 17, 2019, of the National Assembly Standing Committee. The first session of the city’s People’s Council elected key officials so as to swiftly embark on their political tasks to help Hoa Binh city deserve the trust of the local Party committee, administration and people.

Work on Chi Lang Road linking with National Highway 6 has begun, expected to expand the space for Hoa Binh city’s development.

2020 is the first year since the merger of the former Hoa Binh city and Ky Son district, which is believed to match the development trend and requirements. The former Hoa Binh city and Ky Son district boast an over-120-year history with glorious revolutionary traditions. Both were among the province’s top localities in terms of investment attraction, infrastructure development, economic restructuring, per capita income and poverty alleviation. They also had good transport infrastructure, enabling them to be well-connected with other localities via waterways and road.

In 2018, Hoa Lac – Hoa Binh Road was officially put into use, reducing the travel time from Hoa Binh city’s centre to Hanoi to only one hour. This has helped enhance the investment attractiveness of the province, in which Hoa Binh city and Ky Son district benefited most. The number of investors exploring investment chances here rose strongly. Statistics show that in 2019, more than 130 investment projects worth 60 trillion VND (2.5 billion USD) were registered in the former Ky Son district. Among them, many tourism, service and residential development projects are underway, promising strong changes in the local economic structure.

Over the past years, Hoa Binh city has also effectively mobilised resources to make breakthroughs in infrastructure and socio-economic development. A number of works worth trillions of VND in total and critical to urban, service and industrial development have been under construction. They are hoped to give a facelift to Hoa Binh city and help it become a second-tier city in the near future.

According to the construction planning, there will be four bridges spanning the Da River. Three of them have been put into use, helping to boost balanced development on both banks of the river. Besides, other transport infrastructure facilities have also been built and upgraded such as Road 435 and Chi Lang Road that connects with National Highway 6.

Land in Hoa Binh city has been used effectively. The trading centre on the left bank of the Da River has been filled with projects for residential and commercial purposes. More restaurants, hotels and office buildings have also been built. Local living standards have been improved. As a result, the city now has great development chances.

The merger of Ky Son district and Hoa Binh city is an important political task, requiring unanimity in terms of both thought and actions.

Secretary of the municipal Party Committee Quach Tung Duong affirmed that the Party Organisation of Hoa Binh city will uphold traditions, promote democracy, enhance unity and assign concrete tasks to all-level authorities and sectors so as to grasp new development opportunities and capitalise on every resource to fulfill the criteria of a second-tier city to seek the recognition for Hoa Binh city and help it deserve its status as the political, economic, cultural and social centre of the province./.
