(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./.
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.
