A meeting to review the province’s socio-economic development in the first half of 2024 took place on July 3 under the chair of Standing Vice Chairman of the provincial People’s Committee Nguyen Van Toan. Participants discussed and gave opinions on draft documents that will be submitted to the standing board of the provincial Party Committee, documents under the promulgation authority of the provincial People's Committee, and other matters serving the management, direction, and administration of the People's Committee.
The meeting also discussed and gave opinions on a draft scenario for growth,
and tasks and solutions to promote growth in the remaining months of 2024.
According to the provincial Department of Planning and Investment, in the last
six months, the province’s GRDP expanded by 1.81%. Localities in the province
encountered various problems in the disbursement of public investment capital,
land management, land clearance, and infrastructure construction.
The provincial People's Committee has set out five groups of tasks and
solutions to promote growth in the second half, asking departments and sectors
to concentrate on attracting investment, improving the investment and business
environment, enhancing competitiveness, and increasing the budget revenue to
ensure sufficient funding for projects and compensate for revenue shortfalls
from previous years.
Attention must be paid to speeding up public investment disbursement, which is
a critical task to build comprehensive infrastructure, facilitate goods
circulation, attract investment, and stimulate production, thus contributing to
economic growth, participants said.
They also underlined the necessity to address difficulties facing enterprises’
production and business activities, accelerate the implementation of key
projects, stipulate consumption demand, and expand export markets.
Delegates suggested the provincial People's Committee direct the provincial
Department of Planning and Investment to provide further details in the growth
scenario in order to realise the annual GRDP growth target of 9%. They said
that it is necessary to analyse each economic sector contributing to the
province's economic growth, and propose measures to compensate for those that
may not meet set targets.
Vice Chairman Toan asked the department to consult more opinions of relevant
agencies to continue to detail the growth scenario in the remaining months of
the year.
Sectors and localities were required to review key tasks, develop plans and
implementation roadmaps, promote decentralisation of state management for
assigned tasks, strengthen coordination between departments and sectors, and
establish an inter-sectoral working group to promptly remove difficulties for
projects.
Toan requested departments, sectors and localities to pay heed to completely
resolving the issues that voters raised at the last regular meeting of the
provincial People's Council.
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.
