(HBO) – The Hoa Binh provincial People’s Committee has held a conference to announce results of the District and Department Competitiveness Index (DDCI) 2022.
Bui Van Khanh, Vice Secretary of the provincial Party
Committee and Chairman of the provincial People’s Committee; and Nguyen Van
Toan, Standing Vice Chairman of the provincial People’s Committee, present
certificates to the outstanding districts and departments in 2022.
In the 2022 DDCI survey, Economica Vietnam and
the Hoa Binh Business Association collected opinions on the performance of
district-level localities from 893 production and business establishments
(mainly business households and some enterprises and cooperatives), and on the
performance of departments from 641 enterprises, cooperatives, and some
business households.
Among the 26 departments and sectors that cover
28 management areas, the provincial Management Board of Industrial Parks ranked
first with 80.04 out of the 100 points, followed by the Hoa Binh branch of the
Vietnam Social Security with 78.58 points and the provincial Department of
Planning and Investment with 77.94 points.
Compared to 2021, the average score of
departments and sectors increased by 2.26 points to 77.8. However, such
improvement was not enough to give a strong impetus to reforms. The score
difference between the best and worst performers is 10.04 points while it was
7.64 last year.
Of the 10 district-level localities, Yen Thuy
district with 85.54 points topped the list. Eight others recorded scores of
between 70 and under 80, namely Hoa Binh city and the districts of Mai Chau,
Luong Son, Kim Boi, Lac Thuy, Tan Lac, Lac Son, and Da Bac. The last is Cao
Phong district with 69.19 points.
Across Hoa Binh province, the sub-index on
informal charges posted the highest score – 8.1 points, up from 7.94 points in
2021. The worst-performing one is market entry, 6.99 points.
Bui Van Khanh, Vice Secretary of the provincial Party Committee and Chairman of
the provincial People’s Committee, speaks at the conference.
Addressing the event, Bui Van Khanh, Vice
Secretary of the provincial Party Committee and Chairman of the provincial
People’s Committee, asked the localities and departments to analyse the
sub-indexes and improve the low ones so as to better the investment and
business climate and the local competitiveness.
He expressed his hope that enterprises and
investors will coordinate with departments, sectors, and localities to tackle
difficulties and obstacles to contribute to common development of the
province./.
In the first quarter of 2024, the credit institutions in the province have actively deployed the legal documents of the State and the State Bank relating to currency, credit and interest rates. At the same time, they have promoted the capital mobilization, focusing on the solutions to expand the credit investment along with strengthening the credit quality management, lending to priority programs to promptly meet the capital needs for export - business and consumer demand during Tet in 2024.
Outside the key economic region of Hoa Binh, yet Lac Son district has utilised its potential and strengths regarding labour, land, and transportation connectivity to attract investment to the locality, contributing to promoting socio-economic development.
In a move to expedite the execution and disbursement of the 2024 capital plan for ODA projects, aiming for a disbursement rate of over 90% of the allocated funding, the Hoa Binh People's Committee issued Document No. 483/UBND-KTN on April 3, 2024, regarding such efforts.
Nguyen Van Thap from Kim Duc hamlet, Vinh Tien commune, Kim Boi district, has built the brand of Hoa Qua Son for local fruits. His efforts have brought about income for his family and generated job opportunities for locals, helping hundreds of households escape from poverty.
The Hoa Binh administration was entrusted by the Prime Minister with a budget of 3.43 trillion VND (142.91 million USD) for investment in 2024. The provincial People's Council approved nearly 3.76 trillion VND, which has been meticulously allocated to projects, achieving 100% of the assigned capital plan.
Hoa Binh province has mobilised all resources to propel local agricultural products to make inroads into foreign markets, towards lifting the export turnover of key agricultural products to 137.8 million USD by 2030, accounting for 3.4% of the locality’s total export value of goods.
The locality aims to export farm produce to the US, the European Union, the UK, China, Japan, and the Republic of Korea.
