(HBO) – Urbanisation is a motivation for the socio-economic development and the improvement of the living conditions for locals, according to Nguyen Ngoc Diep, Secretary of the Party Committee of Lac Son district.
Thuong Coc commune attracts investment in industrial development, contributing to developing rural areas in association with the formation of Khang Vat residential area.
As a locality with the lowest urbanisation rate, Lac Son's only urban area is Vu Ban township. After being merged, the township has a population of over 9,500, with the urbanisation rate of 8,65%.
The district has made a development planning for Muong Vo township which covers the whole area of Nhan Nghia commune with about 1,400 hectares. At the same time, Lac Son has a number of rural areas that can be developed into urban areas such as Cho Oc in Thuong Coc commune, Cho Re in An Nghia commune, Nga Ba Xua in Xuat Hoa commune, Lam Hoa area in Vu Binh commune, and Cho Chieng in Tan Lap commune.
The district has faced many difficulties in urban development, including a large population and poor transport infrastructure system.
Amid the situation, the district Party Committee has issued a resolution on urban development, which sets a target of 15% in urbanisation rate in 2025 and 25% in 2030.
At the same time, the locality will apply comprehensive measures to boost socio-economic development, transform the economic, labour and employment structure towards increasing the rate of industry, service and reducing that of agriculture.
It will make a plan to urbanise Vu Ban, Muong Vo and Muong Khoi townships, while developing a new-style rural development planning in association with the formation of rural residential areas.
Alongside, the district will work to develop urban and rural infrastructure system, and mobilise resources to complete the power, water supply, park and entertainment system in urban areas.
The urbanisation will be implemented in parallel with the preservation of cultural values of the Muong ethnic minority people./.
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.
