The Socio-economic Development Strategy for the 2021 - 2030 period affirms that science - technology and innovation are one of the important strategic breakthroughs. Accordingly, developing science, technology and innovation is a top national policy, and a main driving force to promote growth, and create breakthroughs in productivity, quality and efficiency.
Developing science, technology and innovation contributes to creating many high-quality products for Hoa Binh.
In Hoa Binh province, after three years of implementing Project No. 04-DA/TU, dated October 11, 2021, of the provincial Party Committee’s Standing Board on developing science, technology and innovation associated with innovating and improving the quality of education and human resources development in the 2021 – 2025 period, the project's goals have been basically achieved and some of them have been surpassed.
In recent years, the provincial Party Committee, the provincial People's Council, and the provincial People's Committee have issued resolutions, plans, and documents to perfect policies, and directed the implementation of tasks on science, technology and innovation development, associated with the innovation and improvement of the quality of education and high-quality human resources development. A typical example is the provincial Party Committee's Resolution on increasing resources for education and training development to meet innovation requirements in Hoa Binh province in the 2023-2030 period.
In addition, the provincial People's Committee has approved a provincial-level science and technology task on developing and implementing policies to attract high-quality human resources to work at industrial parks in the province, and carrying out the provincial Party Committee's project on agricultural development, and promotion of product consumption associated with new-style rural area building in the 2021-2025 period.
The province has implemented four public investment projects in the science and technology sector for the 2021-2025 period, focusing on increasing investment in modern facilities and equipment.
In addition, the province has stepped up incubation activities and increased support for the establishment of businesses and science and technology organisations. To date, Hoa Binh has 25 organisations and 11 enterprises operating in the field of science and technology.
It can be said that the results achieved in recent times have contributed positively to the province's overall socio-economic development, and are an important foundation to create sustainable development momentum in the new period.
In the coming time, to speed up the implementation of the strategy on science-technology and innovation development, the province will continue to strengthen the leadership and direction of Party committees and authorities at all levels, the coordination of the Fatherland Front and socio-political organisations, and the supervision of local people.
It will uphold the responsibility of heads of agencies and units in directing and organising the implementation of tasks and plans to implement Project No. 04 -DA/TU, and step up dissemination of information to raise awareness of businesses about the role of investment in science and technology development in their sustainable development.
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.
