(HBO) - Hoa Binh province will have 21 industrial clusters with a total area of 866,605 hectares under an approved planning scheme. Currently, 16 out of the 21 industrial clusters have been approved by the Provincial People's Committee to set up, covering 683 hectares, with total funding of over 4.86 trillion VND.
Tien Tien Industrial Cluster (Quang Tien commune, Hoa Binh city) is
accelerating construction of technical infrastructure to lure investments.
The combined investment in infrastructure development at the industrial clusters
reached 187 billion VND last year, raising the accumulative amount to date to
about 600 billion VND.
According to the provincial Department of Industry and Trade, there are
currently 34 secondary production and business projects at the industrial clusters
worth some 3.11 trillion VND.
Statistics showed that last year, these clusters generated some 1.7 trillion
VND in industrial production value, and created jobs for 1,300 labourers.
Pham Van Bao, Head of the Industrial Management Division at the provincial
Department of Industry and Trade, pointed to roadblocks in site clearance,
compensation and resettlement.
However, he said, remarkable outcomes have been achieved, as reflected in the
increasing number of secondary projects at the industrial clusters, and
improvements in investment attraction.
To lure more investment projects, especially at the industrial clusters, it is
a must to step up the communications work and review planning schemes of the
industrial clusters in order to make timely adjustments and supplements, the
official continued.
Bao also emphasised the need to better manage the industrial parks to
facilitate investment in infrastructure, production and business, and suggested
mobilising all resources for infrastructure development at the industrial
clusters, with priorities given to environmental pollution handling, and the
communications work./.
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.
