Emulation campaigns were
launched by all relevant authorities in accordance
with local conditions to maintain safety and growth in the ‘new normal’
situation.
Pursuant to the Resolution No.
01/NQ-CP of the Government, the Resolution of Provincial Committee and
Provincial People’s Council on socio-economic development and budget plan in
2021, agencies, organizations and localities have effectively set up,
implemented plans with timely guidance and instructions to enhance emulation
for fulfilling fundamental socio-economic goals and targets set for 2021.
The role of the entire political
system has been deployed in full force. Agencies, organizations of all levels
have taken part in educating, mobilizing people to enhance pandemic prevention,
to ensure mutual support, uniting and sharing to overcome challenges and
contain the pandemic. Frontline forces in the Covid-19 fight – medical workers,
army and police forces members, local officials – maintain close collaboration and preparedness
to combat the pandemic with the highest determination under the guideline of "4
on the spot”.
The emulation campaigns have brought positive achievements despite
the pandemic. As per November 2021, revenue collection reached 4,209.7 billion
VND, equivalent to 97% of the target set by
the Prime Minister and 83% of that set by the People's Council. Annual revenue collection is estimated to reach
5,070 billion VND, equivalent to 116% of the target set by the Prime Minister
and 100% of that set by the People’s Council,
scoring a year-on-year growth of 23%. Gross regional domestic product in 2021,
excluding that of Hoa Binh Hydropower Plant, is projected to increase by 5.48
percent, with GRDP per capita of VND 61.5 million.
Investment promotion, business environment and development
continued to be improved in 2021. In 11 months, 33 projects were approved with
registered investment totaling 3,636.3 billion VND./.
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.
