(HBO) – The Hoa Binh provincial Construction Department on December 26 organised a conference to review its performance in 2022 and roll out tasks for 2023.
Deputy Chairman of the Hoa Binh provincial People's Committee Nguyen Van Chuong attended the conference.
Collectives and individuals awarded certificates of merit for their outstanding performance in 2022.
In 2022, the department appraised the economic-technical report and construction designs, and constructed 105 works. It issued acceptance documents for 288 works and four decisions on sanctioning administrative violations relating to construction activities with a total fines of 180 million VND (7,600 USD).
The province’s urbanisation rate in 2022 is estimated at 33.42%.
However, the rate of construction planning in the province is still low, and the consultation to develop a plan for building materials in the province still faces difficulties and obstacles.
Speaking at the conference, Nguyen Van Chuong, Vice Chairman of the provincial People's Committee, highly valued the construction department’s performance in 2022.
He asked the sector to continue to coordinate with localities in construction inspections, management, and the real estate market.
They were also asked to develop architectural space and urban landscape in combination with the preservation of Hoa Binh's cultural identity.
On this occasion, the Construction Department awarded certificates of merit to 10 collectives and 10 individuals with outstanding performance in 2022./.
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.
