society. Companies such as VNPT Group, Viettel Group, FPT Corporation,
MobiFone, MISA, MedCAT JSC, Thánh Gióng Media & Computer Company, and Dell
Vietnam showcased technologies contributing to national and local digital
transformation, improving public services, governance, and economic
development.
The event reinforced Hoa Binh’s commitment to
the objectives outlined in Politburo Resolution No. 57-NQ/TW issued on December
22, 2024 by the Politburo on accelerating science, technology, innovation, and
digital transformation. By bringing together government leaders, businesses,
and experts, the festival aimed to ensure digital services are practical and
accessible to all citizens.
In his speech, Nguyen Phi Long, alternate Member
of the Party Central Committee and Secretary of the provincial Party Committee,
emphasised the role of science and technology in economic growth. He
highlighted the province's achievements, such as the 40% Total Factor
Productivity (TFP) in 2024 and the expansion of broadband internet, with 100%
of communes now connected to high-speed fibre-optic networks and 4G coverage
reaching 96% of areas.
Hoa Binh also deployed digital platforms across
all levels of government, improving service efficiency and accessibility. More
than 85% of administrative documents are now submitted online, and the province
consistently ranks in the top 10 for service quality.
Despite progress, Long acknowledged barriers to
digital transformation and stressed the need for continued awareness-raising
and training to make digital tools accessible to everyone, especially
vulnerable groups.
Bui The Duy, Deputy Minister of Science and
Technology, praised Hoa Binh’s implementation of Resolution 57-NQ/TW and
highlighted the importance of digital transformation in the province’s growth.
He noted that as the province continues to restructure and develop its economy,
digital tools will be crucial for progress.
Digital transformation is not about complex
technology but about practical solutions that improve daily life, Duy said,
calling for ongoing engagement from all sectors.
At the event, Hoa Binh’s police introduced the
VNeID app, which simplifies online public services. Youth volunteers, in
collaboration with local police and telecom companies, assisted residents at
Phuong Lam Market in using digital services.
