(HBO) – The Hoa Binh People’s Committee has held a conference to review the five-year socio-economic situation in 2016-2020 and define a five-year socio-economic development plan for 2021-2025.
Between
2016 and 2020, the average annual gross regional domestic product (GRDP) of the
province has reached 9.15 percent. By 2020, agriculture, forestry and fishery sector
is expected to account for 19 percent of the GRDP, industry-construction 47
percent, services 29.2 percent, and product taxes 4.8 percent.
Meanwhile, the per capita GRDP is expected to
reach 64 million VND, State budget collection to come to 5 trillion VND, and
the number of effectively operating businesses and cooperatives to amount to 2,470
businesses, doubling that of 2015.
The
total export turnover will exceed 1.9 billion USD, 3.5 times over the figure in
2015. The rate of urbanisation will reach 25 percent, and 45 percent of
communes along with three districts will be recognised as new rural areas.
Participants agreed on the overall targets for the
2021-2025 period, with the province to mobilise all resources to promote rapid
and sustainable economic growth, with industry being the driving force, tourism
as the spearhead and agriculture moving towards commercial scale production.
The material and spiritual life of people will be improved remarkably, and ethnic
cultural identities preserved and developed.
The province will also enhance the management
capacity and efficiency of authorities at all levels and proactively cope with
climate change, make reasonable use of natural resources, well control
environmental pollution, and ensure defence-security.
Hoa Binh will strive to become a middle-range province
by 2025 with all economic indications and most social indices ranked in the
middle-range group among all localities in the country.
Some
specific targets for 2021-2025 are: average economic growth of 9.5-10 percent,
per capita GRDP of about 100 million VND, and annual State budget collection
increase of 17 percent. The total import-export turnover in 2025 is expected to
rise by 3.5 times compared to 2020. The rate of urbanisation will surpass 35
percent./.
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.
