The event was attended by leaders of the Vietnam National Administration of Tourism and its Tourism Marketing Department and Hotel Department.

Representatives of some organisations and businesses in partnership with Hoa Binh were also present at the event.
Vice Chairman of the provincial People’s Committee
Nguyen Van Toan and central and local officials mark the start of the 2022
travel stimulus programme of Hoa Binh.
Themed "Hoa Binh, safe tourism destination -
full experience”, the programme aims to assist enterprises in the industry to
recover their operations. It also looks to introduce Hoa Binh as a safe
destination with a wide range of attractive experiences to the public and
visitors.
With enhanced communications, event
organisation, and destination introduction, the programme is expected to create
conditions for units, localities, and travel companies to cooperate with one
another to revive and develop the sector while safe adapting to and effectively
controlling the COVID-19, thereby helping welcome 2.5 million visitors and earn
over 2.4 trillion VND (104.7 million USD) in revenue this year as targeted by
Hoa Binh.
As part of the conference, businesses also
announced their travel stimulus packages.
Addressing the event, Vice Chairman of the
provincial People’s Committee Nguyen Van Toan asked departments, sectors,
members of the Hoa Binh tourism steering committee, and district-level People’s
Committees to press on with implementing the province’s tourism development
project for 2021 - 2025 with a vision to 2030, as well as Plan No. 44/KH-UBND,
issued by the provincial People’s Committee on March 9 this year, on travel
stimulation.
Tourism businesses should realise their
announced commitments by reducing prices but not quality and developing new
products so as to meet tourists’ growing demand. It is also necessary to step
up communications to introduce promotional programmes and new services while
encouraging civilised behaviours and the adherence to the 5K principle (khau
trang - wearing face masks, khu khuan - disinfection, khoang cach - keeping
distance, khai bao - making health declaration, khong tu tap - no gathering).
The Vietnam Tourism Association, travel firms, along with central and local
media outlets should also support stimulus programmes of local businesses, he
added./.
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.
