(HBO) - The provincial People’s Committee on April 23 held a working session with the People’s Committee of Yen Thuy district on measures to ensure budget collection and develop industry-handicraft and a number of other issues.

According to a report by the Yen Thuy People’s Committee, over the years, industry and handicraft production of Yen Thuy has seen progress, but growth in production value is still low at about 6 percent per year in the 2016-2020 period.

In the first quarter of 2021, the value of the district’s industry sector reached 317 billion VND, up 7.1 percent year on year. So far, Yen Thuy has 15 companies, three cooperatives and 560 facilities operating in industry-handicraft sector.

As of April 19, total State budget collection in the district was 31.61 billion VND, fulfilling 24 percent of the target. Collection from taxes, fees and other sources was 16.25 billion VND, while that from land use fee was over 15 billion VND.

The People’s Committee of Yen Thuy proposed that the provincial People’s Committee of Hoa Binh and departments and sectors support the district in attracting investment in Lac Thinh industrial park, while excluding unfeasible projects such as the Hang Tram industrial cluster out of the industrial park planning.

The district asked for permission to expand the acreage of Lac Thinh IP from 220 hectares to about 830 hectares in 2030, along with adding the 550-hectare Bao Hieu IP to the IP planning.

It also asked for early allocation of funding for the district to implement a project to upgrade the power supply system in remote and extremely difficult areas in the province.

Concluding the session, Liem lauded the achievements that Yen Thuy has gained in implementing socio-economic development goals, with a number of targets exceeding the set goals. However, he pointed out that the district has yet to optimise its potential and advantages in geographical location and transport.

He asked the district to direct relevant agencies to coordinate with departments and sectors to improve planning work, with special attention paid to major transport projects, thus creating motivation for development.

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 revives local heritage through OCOP programme

OCOP Hoa Binh: Awakening local excellence - Journey from tradition to market

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.
