HBO – The People’s Committee of Da Bac district held a ceremony to announce Tu Ly commune’s fulfillment of all new-style rural building criteria in 2018. Attending the event was Hoang Van Duc, member of the provincial Party Committee’s Standing Board and head of the committee’s Inspection Commission.
Tu Ly is the first commune to be
recognized as a new-style rural area in Da Bac district. During eight years
(2011-2018) implementing the new-style rural area building programme, Tu Ly
commune has mobilised more than 173 billion VND to invest in infrastructure
construction and production development. Currently, the commune's transport and
irrigation systems have basically meet standards, 100 percent of local households
have regular and safe access to electricity; 92 percent of people in the working
age have regular jobs; over 70 percent of families meet cultural family criteria.
Three out of four schools in the commune have reached national standards. It
also has a cultural house and a stadium which have been newly built to serve
the commune's events.
Over the past years, locals
have actively shifted the agricultural structure towards plants and animals
with high economic value and applied science advances into production. Many
effective farming models have been duplicated, such as models of citrus and
safe vegetable growing. In addition, the commune has attached special
importance to the development of services and trade, so locals' incomes have improved
significantly. In 2018, the average per capita income reached 29 million VND
while the poverty rate of the commune reduced to 10.7 percent. Social welfare
was ensured, the material and spiritual life of local was improved, and the
political security and social order and safety stayed stable.
The provincial People's
Committee granted a certificate recognising the commune as a new-style rural
area in 2018 and awarded it with a welfare project worth 400 million VND.
At the ceremony, on behalf of
the province’s leaders, Hoang Van Duc, member of the provincial Party Committee’s
Standing Board and head of its Inspection Commission handed over the

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.
