(HBO) – Local residents living along provincial Road 435 (Binh Thanh - Thung Nai - Ngoi Hoa, Tan Lac district) have agreed to facilitate land clearance in service of the road construction.
Bui Thi Hanh’s family in Ne
hamlet, Ngoi Hoa commune hands over land to the authority.
Road 435 has nearly 9 km running through Mu, Ne, Buong, Ngoi and
Liem hamlets in Ngoi Hoa commune. About 200 local households have to relocate their
assets and crops due to the construction. The land clearance work has basically
been completed, even ahead of the schedule set by the Chairman of the
provincial People’s Committee, under which at least half of the site in Tan Lac
district must be cleared by the end of September 2018. Although local residents
have yet to get compensation, they have handed over space to the project’s
investor and constructor.
Ngoi Hoa has well performed the communication work to encourage
officials, Party members and residents to support and abide by policies and
guidelines of the province, and move their assets, crops and houses in order to
create favourable conditions for the constructor to implement the project.
Apart from publicising compensation methods, commune authorities have also
followed measurement regulations in land clearance. Ngoi Hoa decided to ratify
the compensation estimate at about 16 billion VND.
The project on upgrading Road 435 was approved by the provincial
People’s Committee under Decision No. 1644/QD-UBND dated August 30, 2017, with
a total investment capital of 756 billion VND through Government bonds during
the 2016-2020 period. Of the sum, the province’s capital is 56 billion VND.
A total 21.18km of the road have been upgraded under Level-3
standards which are set for mountainous areas with a designed speed of 60km/h.
It starts from the Binh Thanh intersection to Thung Nai in Cao Phong district,
and ends in Liem hamlet, Ngoi Hoa commune, Tan Lac district. The project has
received 630 billion VND, of which 150 billion VND in 2017.
Dao Village’s honey – a product certified with a 3-star OCOP (One Commune One Product) rating by Thong Nhat Agricultural Cooperative in Dao Village (Hoa Binh City) – is highly regarded by consumers for its quality, richness, and variety in packaging. The distinctively sweet taste of Dao Village’s honey leaves a lasting impression on anyone who has tried it.
In alignment with Project No. 07-DA/TU, issued by the Hoa Binh provincial Party Committee on November 1, 2021, Lac Thuy district has actively promoted investment and supported the sustainable development of its industrial and handicraft sectors during the 2021–2025 period. Alongside this, the district has remained committed to preserving and revitalising traditional craft villages.
Located in the northern part of Lac Thuy district, with a temperate climate and fertile soil, Phu Thanh commune has great potential and advantages in growing tea. The long-standing experience, combined with strict adherence to organic farming practices in the tea gardens, ensures that the dried tea products from Phu Thanh and Lac Thuy as a whole are sold out immediately upon production, providing a stable and prosperous life for the local people.
Amid efforts to streamline the administrative apparatus, Hoa Binh province has intensified measures to address challenges in land clearance, resettlement support, and infrastructure investment, aiming to speed up the progress of key projects.
Hoa Binh province has posted an unprecedented economic growth rate of 12.76% in the first quarter of 2025, marking its highest quarterly performance to date and positioning it as the second fastest-growing locality in the country, trailing only Bac Giang province.
Under current regulations, products in the One Commune – One Product (OCOP) programme that are rated three stars or higher must undergo re-evaluation every three months. However, in reality, some of these products fail to consistently meet the required standards, raising concerns about the sustainability of their OCOP certification. This underscores the urgent need for producers to enhance product quality and gradually develop their OCOP products into strong, marketable brands.
