An overview of the teleconference.
In his opening remarks, Bui Van Khanh, Vice Secretary of the provincial Party Committee and Chairman of the provincial People's Committee, emphasised that last year, the province basically completed the set socio-economic development targets and plans. On the basis of the Government's orientations, the People's Committee built a draft Directive on key tasks and solutions to direct and monitor the implementation of the socio-economic development plan in 2023.
Specifically, Hoa Binh set out 19 key targets, including an economic growth rate of 9%; GRDP per capita of 70.9 million VND (3,020 USD); State budget revenue of 7.28 trillion VND; an urbanisation rate of 33.45%; a health insurance coverage rate of 92.5%; and a forest coverage rate of 51.5%.
To achieve the set goals and targets, the provincial People's Committee set forth 12 groups of solutions and 160 specific tasks for each department, sector and locality, with focus on continuing economic restructuring; innovating the growth model; improving productivity, quality and efficiency to create a driving force for economic growth; improving the business and investment environment; and boosting economic growth in association with comprehensive and concerted development of socio-cultural fields, ensuring social security, improving locals' living standards, and maintaining defence security.
Nguyen Phi Long, alternate member of the Party Central Committee and Secretary of the provincial Party Committee, emphasised that despite many difficulties, the province made efforts to basically complete the set targets in 2022.
This year is the pivotal year to implement the Resolutions of the Party Congresses at all levels. However, difficulties remain, requiring a great political determination, and joint efforts to create a responsible and effective working environment, for the development of the province.
Chairman of the provincial People's Committee Bui Van Khanh explained several recommendations of localities, and suggested departments and sectors closely follow the province’s plans and programmes to fulfil the set tasks./.
