far been terminated and revoked, including 19 FDI ones.
As of the late December 2018, 270 projects were put into
operation, 44 underway, 137 dealing with land procedures, site clearance and
other procedures, 35 delayed, 20 shut down production and trade, and 19 suspended.

Vice Chairman of the
provincial People’s Council Hoang Van Tu speaks at the event.
Vice Chairman of the provincial People’s Council Hoang
Van Tu suggested that the council should promptly study and issue a resolution
on the issue. The provincial People’s Committee will continue directing
investment attraction, earmarking local State budget to attract investment,
build infrastructure at industrial zones and complexes, prepare clean land sites
to draw investment, review delayed projects and offer all possible support to
investors. The provincial Department of Planning and Investment will advise the
provincial People’s Committee to issue decentralised management regulations for
projects using non-State budget, work more closely with State management
agencies to deal with administrative procedures, provide online public
administration services, especially in investment, construction, land, taxation
and finance, and improve the efficiency of choosing and evaluating projects.
The Standing Board of the Hoa Binh provincial Party Committee met on March 18 to review and guide major investment projects aimed at boosting local socio-economic development.
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.
