(HBO) - A delegation of Japanese businesses led by Yuseke Shimojima from the Tokyo Chamber of Commerce and Industry came to Hoa Binh province on March 5 to learn about investment opportunities.
The working session with the delegation was attended by member of the Party Central Committee and Secretary of the provincial Party Committee Bui Van Tinh, Vice Secretary of the provincial Party Committee and Chairman of the provincial People’s Council Tran Dang Ninh, and Vice Secretary of the provincial Party Committee and Chairman of the provincial People’s Committee Nguyen Van Quang.
Through the meeting, the Japanese side aimed to gain an insight into the local situation and seek investment chances. They expressed their interest in such fields as real estate, electronic component production, and other industrial areas.
An overview of the meeting.
At the event, the two sides discussed the province’s potential and advantages, along with its investment attraction policy and opportunities. The Japanese firms studied investment incentives, prioritised fields, and human resources for investment projects.
Secretary of the provincial Party Committee Bui Van Tinh spoke highly of their interest in Hoa Binh. He suggested them consider investing in potential and strong areas of his province such as eco-tourism, cultural tourism, leisure tourism; hi-tech agriculture; industrial park infrastructure; supporting industries; new material production; and ecological residential areas.
Hoa Binh is pushing ahead with reforming its business environment. It pledges to assist businesses and investors to successfully implement their projects for the sake of sustainable development of both the province and enterprises, he added.
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.

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.
