(HBO) – The Hoa Binh provincial People’s Committee has held a meeting to verify Hoa Binh city’s new-style rural area status. Vice Chairman of the committee Nguyen Van Dung chaired the event.
The province’s verification team examines the cow farming
model of the agricultural services cooperative of Dan Chu commune, Hoa Binh
city.
By October 3, all the seven communes of Hoa Binh
city had been recognised as new-style rural areas.
Over the last eight years, authorities and
agencies at all levels have mobilised resources and effectively integrated
capital sources to upgrade local infrastructure, thus giving a facelift to
rural areas. They have also moved to restructure agriculture so as to boost
mass production, form concentrated production zones, and apply scientific and
technological advances to improve product quality and value.
To raise residents’ income, the communes have
built production development projects basing on local potential and advantages
to gradually form specialised farming zones, promote specialties and create
products typical for them. These projects include farming cows, fish,
vegetables, lingzhi mushroom, guava and longan.
Hoa Binh city houses one industrial park on the left
bank of the Da River and two industrial clusters which have employed a number
of locals, thus raising the rate of people with jobs in the seven communes to
95.7 percent. The rate of trained labourers is 40.06 percent.
Average per capita income in rural areas has
risen from 15.8 million VND (676.5 USD) in 2011 to 38.84 million VND (nearly
1,700 USD) in 2017. The multidimensional household poverty rate has fallen to
1.31 percent in the city.
About 90.3 percent of the seven communes’
population has been covered by health insurance, while 98.5 percent of local
families have accessed clean water. Hoa Binh city has also ensured security and
order and does not have debt in basic construction projects./.
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 People's Committee of Hoa Binh Province has issued Plan No. 93 on supporting small and medium -sized enterprises (SMEs) in the province in 2025. Accordingly, it has decided to allocate VND 3.5 billion from the central budget to support these businesses.
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.
