Under the drastic directions of the Party units and authorities from the grassroots level and with public consensus, the province’s new-style rural development campaign has over the past decade reaped important results. The countryside has a facelift with modern infrastructure, especially cultural infrastructure meeting demand of rural residents. Production has changed positively and been oriented towards large-scale goods and effective cooperation. Economic development projects and models have been spread, thus creating a driving force for the local socio-economic development.

As of late 2018, the province posted a gross regional domestic product growth of 8.36 percent, ranking 19^th nationwide and fourth among the 14 northern midland provinces. Its total State budget revenue reached 3.4 trillion VND, ranking third among the six northwestern provinces and seventh among the 14 northern midland provinces. The average per capita GRDP is estimated at 50.7 million VND, ranking second among the six northwestern provinces and third among the 14 northern mid-land provinces. The average per capita income in rural areas reached 32 million VND each year, up 23.7 million VND compared to that in 2011. The rate of poor households in rural areas was 14.28 percent, down by 17.23 percent from 2011.

During the 2016-2019 period, the province raised over 11.44 trillion VND for the new-style rural development programme.

With such achievements, the province now has 82 out of the 191 communes that meet new rural development criteria, accounting for 42.9 percent of the total communes (fulfilling the province’s resolution one year ahead of schedule), an increase of 51 communes compared to 2015. Last year, Hoa Binh city was the first district-level administrative unit of the province to complete the task of building new-style rural areas two years ahead of schedule. The number of new-style rural development criteria in the province averages 15.01 per commune, up 10.61 criteria compared to 2011 and up 3.51 criteria compared to the late 2015. Not any commune now meets below 10 criteria. This year, Luong Son district is expected to meet new-style rural development criteria, surpassing the plan by 200 percent under the Prime Minister’s Decision No.1865/QD-TTg dated November 23, 2018./.
