(HBO) - Vice Chairman of the People’s Committee of Hoa Binh province Bui Van Khanh and representatives of provincial departments and agencies have recently held a working session with the People’s Committee of Luong Son district on the implementation of a plan to improve its business environment and competitiveness capacity.
Vice Chairman of the provincial People’s
Committee Bui Van Khanh chaired the working session.
In
recent years, Luong Son district has directed administrations at all levels and
sectors to well implement administrative procedure reform, thus creating favourable
conditions for enterprises and local people to invest in business and
production.
A report delivered at the working session showed
that in 2016 and the first half of 2017, the local "one-stop-shop” unit
processed 636 administrative procedure documents of firms and investors. All of
the documents were handled on schedule, of which 44 percent were processed
ahead of schedule.
Administrative
procedures, investment and businesses policy regulations and planning
information were uploaded onto the district’s e-portal and publicly posted at
the "one-stop-shop” unit to help businesses, investors and local residents get
easy access to the necessary information.
In
2016, Luong Son district welcomed 33 projects and carried out site clearance
for 19 projects with the total compensation mounting up to 16.4 billion VND.
In the first six months of 2017, the district continued with site clearance
for the 19 projects and had completed the work for six projects by June 30 with
compensation of 12 billion VND. It also received eight new projects, of which seven
projects have seen site clearance implemented.
Concluding the working session, Vice Chairman of
the provincial People’s Committee Bui Van Khanh spoke highly of the district’s
efforts in improving its business environment and competitiveness capacity,
especially promptly handling administrative procedures for individuals and
organisations.
However,
the district should speed up site clearance so that the projects could be deployed
as scheduled, he stressed.
Regarding the task in
the coming time, Khanh asked Luong Son district
to soon put the Public Administration Centre in operation while continuing the acceleration
of administrative reform.
The district was also requested to make greater efforts to attract
more investment with careful selection and assessment, improve the quality of
human resources and mobilise investment to develop local socio-economic
infrastructure systems.
Once a mountainous province facing many challenges, Hoa Binh has, after more than a decade of implementing the national target programme on new-style rural area development, emerged as a bright spot in Vietnam’s northern midland and mountainous region. In the first quarter of 2025, the province recorded positive results, paving the way for Hoa Binh to enter a phase of accelerated growth with a proactive and confident mindset.
Hoa Binh province is steadily advancing its agricultural sector through the adoption of high-tech solutions, seen as a sustainable path for long-term development.
The steering committee for key projects of Hoa Binh province convened on May 14 to assess the progress of major ongoing developments
A delegation of Hoa Binh province has attended the "Meet Korea 2025" event, recently held by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Embassy of the Republic of Korea (RoK) in Vietnam, the Korea Trade-Investment Promotion Agency, and the People's Committee of Hung Yen province.
Hoa Binh province joined Vietnam’s national "One Commune, One Product” (OCOP) programme in 2019, not simply as a mountainous region following central policy, but with a clear vision to revive the cultural and agricultural values in its villages and crops.
From just 16 certified products in its inaugural year to 158 by early 2025, the One Commune One Product (OCOP) programme in Hoa Binh province has followed a steady and strategic path. But beyond the numbers, it has reawakened local heritage, turning oranges, bamboo shoots, brocade, and herbal remedies into branded, market-ready goods - and, more profoundly, transformed how local communities value and present their own cultural identity.
