(HBO) - The development and application of e-commerce technologies and services have encouraged banks, credit organisations and businesses to apply card technology in banking services, especially e-payment of salary, and electricity, water and phone bills.
Agribank Hoa Binh’s branch
in Phuong Lam ward has placed importance to IT application in management and
administration, aiming to improve its business efficiency.
The
development and application of e-commerce technologies and services have
encouraged banks, credit organisations and businesses to apply card technology
in banking services, especially e-payment of salary, and electricity, water and
phone bills.
The
provincial People’s Committee has issued some policies to support businesses
and develop the market. IT application in enterprises has initially yielded
fruits. Businesses, especially those in the sectors of finance, banking,
insurance, post and telecommunications, have invested in infrastructure to
serve IT application and development in production and business management. They
have used software to manage customers, workforce, goods and payment fees,
among others.
Local
enterprises have applied e-payment in production and business activities. Up to
60 percent of supermarkets, commercial centres, and electricity, water and
telecom service suppliers have employed e-payment.
The
province has taken solutions and carried out activities to facilitate e-commerce
and spread it among businesses and consumers.
Besides,
up to 80 percent of instructions of the province’s leaders and heads of
departments, agencies and districts have been posted on portals. Ninety percent of internal documents of
agencies have been exchanged online, eradicating the need for hard copies,
while 90 percent of official documents of State agencies have been exchanged
online in parallel with hard copies.
Thirty one portals of departments, agencies and
People’s Committees of districts and cities have been set up and linked with
the province’s portal.
The shared software for one-stop-shop services
has been put into service, connecting all departments, agencies and
one-stop-shop service suppliers in Hoa Binh’s cities and districts.
Additionally, teleconferences have been organised
with the participation of representatives from the provincial People’s
Committee and cities and districts, helping save money and time. More than 90
such teleconferences have been held so far.-VNA
According to data from the Hoa Binh Provincial Party Committee, the industrial production index for the first six months of 2025 is estimated to have increased by 20% compared to the same period last year. This marks the highest year-on-year growth rate for this period since 2020.
In the first six months of 2025, Hoa Binh province’s export turnover was estimated at 1.145 billion USD, marking an 18.11% increase compared to the same period in 2024. Import turnover was estimated at $ 804 million, a 17.15% increase, which helped the province maintain a positive trade balance.
The lives of the ethnic minority farmers in Tan Lac district have gradually improved thanks to the new directions in agricultural production. This is a testament to the collective strength fostered through the professional associations and groups implemented by various levels of the district’s Farmers’ Union.
With the motto the "product quality comes first,” after nearly one year of establishment and operation, Muong village’s Clean Food Agricultural and Commercial Cooperative, located in Cau Hamlet, Hung Son Commune (Kim Boi district), has launched reputable, high-quality agricultural products to the market that are well-received by consumers. The products such as Muong village’s pork sausage, salt-cured chicken, and salt-cured pork hocks have gradually carved out a place in the market and they are on the path to obtaining the OCOP certification.
In the past, the phrase "bumper harvest, rock-bottom prices" was a familiar refrain for Vietnamese farmers engaged in fragmented, small-scale agriculture. But today, a new spirit is emerging across rural areas of Hoa Binh province - one of collaboration, organisation, and collective economic models that provide a stable foundation for production.
Maintaining growing area codes and packing facility codes in accordance with regulations is a mandatory requirement for agricultural products to be eligible for export. Recently, the Department of Agriculture and Environment of Hoa Binh province has intensified technical supervision of designated farming areas and packing facilities to safeguard the "green passport" that enables its products to access international markets.
