(HBO) - The resolution of the 17th Provincial Party Congress for the 2020-2025 tenure has set an average growth target of 9 percent over five years. By 2025, the per capita gross regional domestic product (GRDP) will reach about 100 million VND (4,350 USD) and the State budget revenue, 10 trillion VND.

housing project in Hoa Binh city. Raising the attractiveness and early
implementing investment projects are identified as one of the solutions to
promote the province's sustainable economic growth.
The province's economic growth model has developed mainly extensively and the
quality of growth, unsustainable in recent years. The total factor productivity
(TFP) reached only 25.77 percent in 2020. The number of newly-established
enterprises and cooperatives per year is still modest. The allocation of
investment is not adequate and the collection of state budget unstable.
The provincial People's Committee blamed the problems on the limited capacity
in renovating its growth model in association with economic restructuring,
saying that the investment environment is not attractive enough and the quality
of human resources has not yet met the development’s demands.
2022 is an important year that lays the foundation for implementing the goals
of the 5-year Socio-Economic Development Plan for 2021-2025. Thus, a growth
rate of 9 percent should be obtained this year, according to the provincial
People's Committee.
To achieve the goal, it is necessary to continue restructuring the economy,
renovating the growth model and improve productivity, and creating momentum for
rapid and sustainable development.
Ngo Van Tuan, Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, said challenges lie
ahead as its gross regional domestic product grew 2.66 percent last year.
He said agencies are authorised to finalise plans aimed at
achieving an economic growth of 9 percent right at the beginning of this year,
adding that individuals have to bear the responsibilities in management
relating to projects that are at a standstill or the resettlement for residents
whose land are revoked during the land clearance process.
Attention will be paid to the disbursement of public investment
to ensure economic growth, he said. The focus will be on the implementation of
key projects as well as state budget collection.
Department, agencies and districts were asked to carry out a project on
restructuring the economy in association with renovating growth models. It is
anticipated that the province will reach the national average growth rate by
2025.
Bui Van Khanh, Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee, said that
investment is a must to achieve the growth targets, and that is why the
province will concentrate on creating breakthroughs in infrastructure, human
resources and investment attraction areas./.
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.
