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.
On May 15, the Hoa Binh Steering Committee for Science, Technology, Innovation, and Digital Transformation launched the "Digital Literacy for All” movement.

After the historic victory on April 30, 1975, which liberated the South and reunified the country, the whole Vietnam embarked on a new mission — promoting peace and reconstructing the nation with century-defining projects. On the fierce Da River, over 30,000 engineers, sappers, and construction workers battled against rocky mountains and raging floods to achieve a remarkable feat. The Hoa Binh Hydropower Plant, the largest of its kind in Southeast Asia at that time, officially began generating electricity, lighting up the North and ushering in a new era of industrialisation.
