According to a report presented at the meeting,
Hoa Binh’s gross regional domestic product (GRDP) in the reviewed period
expanded by 8% year-on-year, and its export turnover was estimated at 1.47
million USD, up 20.7% year-on-year. The province welcomed some 3.6 million
tourists, a rise of 7.9% from the same period last year.
Its state budget revenue stood at some 4.8
trillion VND (195.67 million USD), surpassing the Government’s target by 19%,
and fulfilling 83% of the plan set by the provincial People’s Council.
As of the end of July, the province’s capital
disbursement reached 1.16 trillion VND, fulfilling 34% of the target set by the
Government, and 31% of the plan worked out by the People’s Committee.
Progress has also been made in socio-economic
affairs, and national defence-security.
Participants also opined on reports on the
progress of key projects, and pointed to obstacles to local socio-economic
development, notably sluggish land clearance, land crunch, and low
disbursement.
In his remarks, Khanh asked departments,
agencies, and localities to step up coordination in pushing ahead with
investment and land clearance, and pay more heed to disbursement.
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.
