(HBO) - The People’s Committee of Hoa Binh province has recently hosted a conference to discuss measures to improve the provincial Competitiveness Index (PCI) in 2022.
Secretary of the provincial Party Committee Ngo Van Tuan speaks at the conference.
In his
speech at the event, Chairman of the provincial People’s Committee Bui Van
Khanh asked leaders of departments, sectors, and localities to make more
efforts to further improve the locality’s PCI in the coming time.
In 2021 and the first six months of 2022, the provincial authorities issued
many documents on measures to improve the business environment and
competitiveness of the locality.
Working groups have been also established to support investors in speeding up
the progress of investment projects.
A series of meetings have been regularly organised to seek solutions to remove
obstacles and difficulties facing businesses and investors, especially
production and business establishments affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.
At the conference, experts said there remains a large room for Hoa Binh to
better its PCI, adding that the local authorities should pay more attention to
improving the Public Administration Reform (PAR) Index and the Provincial
Governance and Public Administration PerformanceIndex(PAPI), and
effectively apply the set of indicators to evaluate the competitiveness of departments,
sectors, People's Committees of districts and Hoa Binh city.
Hoa Binh should further promote digital transformation to handle issues related
to inclusive development, especially improving the quality of planning, they
added./.

Hoang Quang Phong, Vice Chairman of the Vietnam Chamber of Commerce and
Industry, speaks at the event.
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.
