(HBO) - In 2018, Hoa Binh province ranked 48th out of the 63 cities and provinces nationwide in the ranking of the provincial competitiveness index, up four places compared to 2017. The land access index is one of the seven component indexes that contribute to higher ranking. Although there are improvements, firms still meet difficulties in land access.

The provincial People’s Committee is directing departments, agencies and localities to step up administrative reform, help remove obstacles faced by enterprises and investors in site clearance, access to land, and improve business climate and the provincial competitiveness.

The provincial People’s Committee also asked the Department of Natural Resources and Environment to adopt measures to improve the land access index and reform administrative procedures, cutting time for land use licensing.

At the same time, it requested serious dealing with projects without planning and land-use plans, substantially improving business environment, enhancing open and thematic dialogues with firms to thoroughly address their difficulties, maintain hotlines to promptly update and deal with legitimate suggestions by companies and the public, resolutely discipline officials and cadres who show a poor sense of responsibility and cause difficulties in processing procedures involving firms and the public./.
