(HBO) – Hoa Binh City, Luong Son district and the northern part of Lac Thuy district have been set as urban, industrial and dynamic zone of Hoa Binh province.
Hoa Binh City’s transportation and urban
infrastructure basically meet development demand.
The provincial Party Committee and People’s
Committee directed effectively performing the Party and State’s policies and
guidelines on planning work, improving planning quality and management in line
with the law, and completing the provincial planning for the 2021-2030 period
with a vision to 2050.
Located in the dynamic zone, Hoa Binh City
considered it a favourable condition for development. Over the past years, the
city has attached importance to improving the efficiency of using, managing and
upholding resources of the economy, especially socio-economic infrastructure.
At present, the dynamic zone is home to almost
local industrial parks (IPs) and industrial park clusterswith 7 IPs, or
87.5 percent, and 10 IP clusters, or over 60 percent of the total in the
province. Luong Son IP and IP on the left bank of Da River have basically
completed technical infrastructure. Four IP clusters have been put into
operation. Among 635 valid projects in the province, Hoa Binh City accounted
for the most with 203 projects, followed by Luong Son with 198 projects and Lac
Thuy 64. As many as 92.5 percent of projects by forest investors are based in
the dynamic zone, mostly in the fields of processing, electronic spare parts,
construction materials, electricity and water production and distribution.
There are service and tourism projects like Phuong Hoang and Hilltop Valley
golf courses, Thang Thien waterfall tourism area, resorts and garden houses.
The urbanisation rates of Hoa Binh City, Luong
Son district and Lac Thuy district hit nearly 78 percent, 45 percent and 25.45
percent, respectively.
The province estimated that the dynamic zone
contributed about 70 percent of the local State budget revenue, over 90 percent
of export revenue and 70 percent of economic scale of the province. The zone
also recorded the highest income per capita and the lowest rate of poor
households. In Hoa Binh City alone, average income per capita reached 75
million VND in 2021 while the rate of poor households was reduced to 0.97
percent./.
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.
The steering committee for key projects of Hoa Binh province convened on May 14 to assess the progress of major ongoing developments
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.
