According to Chairman of the provincial Business Association Nguyen Cao Son, in
recent years, the province has focused on developing a synchronous transport
system; attracting investment in many important and potential areas such as the
national tourist area of the Da River, and eco-resorts and hot mineral water
springs in Lac Son and Kim Boi districts.
Last year, the local authorities approved and granted investment certificates
to 44 projects with a total registered capital of about 34.24 trillion VND,
surging by 208.4% compared to the amount of investment capital recorded in
2020.
Due to the sudden increase in investment projects, while the qualifications of
local officials and civil servants remained limited, so the settlement of
administrative documents and procedures has not yet met requirements of
investors, Son said.
In 2022, under the drastic direction of the provincial Party Committee and
People's Committee, since the beginning of the year, directive documents on
improving the investment and business environment and improving the PCI have
been issued.
Departments, sectors, districts and Hoa Binh city have developed plans and
carried out activities to improve component indicators.
The province has attracted many big investors such as Vingroup, Sun Group, Hoa
Phat, Geleximco, La Vong, Phu My Hung, Phu My, Lac Hong and Ho
Guom.
Many transport projects have been developed, including regional transport
projects approved by the National Assembly, contributing to promoting
socio-economic development of the province.
To further improve the PCI, the provincial People’s Council has proposed a
series of solutions, focusing on strengthening coordination in handling
procedures and documents between departments, sectors and localities;
elaborating master plans, and zoning and detailed plans as the basis for
implementing and proposing investment projects; supporting digital
transformation in businesses; and promoting the operation of investment and
development funds, and credit guarantee funds for small and medium-sized
enterprises.
Local people across Hoa Binh province enjoyed the festive spirit of the 2025 Lunar New Year (Tet) with joy, cultural traditions, and heartfelt family gatherings.
During this Lunar New Year (Tet), residents of Vay Nua commune, Da Bac district are joyfully celebrating the arrival of spring with various festive activities. Along the main road of the commune, a newly installed solar-powered streetlight system stands out, completed just before Tet. Funded by Agribank Hoa Binh with a total investment of approximately 80 million VND (over 3,100 USD), the project has already proven beneficial. Not only does it enhance the rural landscape, but it also improves road safety and security, adding to the New Year’s cheer for the people of Vay Nua.
Nestled in Tan Lac district, Van Son commune boasts a breathtaking landscape reminiscent of a serene, poetic painting. Winding roads gracefully embrace the hillsides, enhancing the commune’s natural charm. As spring spreads its vibrant colours, the lives of local people continue to improve day by day.
The trade union of Hoa Binh province’s industrial parks has presented meaningful gifts to workers with difficulties, ensuring that they will have a warm Lunar New Year (Tet) holiday.
According to the Department of Agriculture and Rural Development's report, in 2024, the appropriate authorities regularly propagated and disseminated forest protection management, forest development, and forest fire prevention and fighting.
The Lunar New Year, At Ty, 2025 is approaching. The gardeners in the peach growing area of Toan Son commune (Da Bac) are busy transporting, bringing spring to every home. Throughout the villages, peaches are grown everywhere, gradually becoming an effective economic model to help the people have a warm and full spring with their families.
