Son La, Lai Chau, Lao Cai, Tuyen Quang, Dien Bien Phu, Yen Bai and Viet Tri;

chance for urban areas to exchange information, share experience, seek
cooperation opportunities, address difficulties in urban management, and
especially tighten sustainable solidarity among the areas.
Based on the emulation movement of building green, clean and beautiful urban
areas launched by the Association of Cities of Vietnam, the conference selected
five outstanding green, clean and beautiful urban areas in 2018, including Hoa
Binh, Lao Cai, Son La, Ha Giang cities and Nghia Lo town (Yen Bai) and proposed
the ACVN commend and reward these urban
areas.
The conference also discussed and agreed on the theme of action for 2019:
"Improving State management of land use in combination with urban development”,
as well as nominated Hoa Binh as the head of the cluster in 2019 and Nghia Lo
town of Yen Bai province as host of the next conference./.

The air is thick with the hum of drills and the clatter of machinery as the Hoa Binh – Moc Chau expressway takes shape amid the rugged terrain. Welding sparks illuminate the faces of workers, and concrete mixers churn relentlessly, laying fresh pavement on the newly-carved road. The construction site buzzes with a palpable sense of urgency, particularly in Hoa Binh province where the expressway's future is being forged.
The northern province of Hoa Binh, with over 467,000 hectares of natural forest and more than 100,000 hectares of production forest, holds significant potential for carbon credit market development.
Replacing substandard houses with more sturdy ones by June 30 is the direction given by Nguyen Phi Long, alternate member of the Party Central Committee and Secretary of the Hoa Binh provincial Party Committee, at a meeting held in early March by the provincial Steering Committee for the programme to eliminate temporary and dilapidated houses for the needy.
Recognising digital transformation as an inevitable trend, authorities and agencies in Hoa Binh have made great efforts in the work by focusing on three core pillars - digital government, digital society, and digital economy, resulting in enhanced competitiveness, improved investment climate, and ensured economic and social welfare.
In recent years, Da Bac district has improved administrative reform with a one-stop shop mechanism, streamlined inter-agency procedures, and a shift to digital platforms. These efforts have enhanced public service efficiency and contributed to local socio-economic development.
