(HBO) - Vice Secretary of the Hoa Binh provincial Party Committee and Chairman of the provincial People’s Committee Bui Van Khanh made the direction during a meeting of the provincial Steering Committee on Administrative Reform on June 16.

Vice Secretary of the
provincial Party Committee and Chairman of the provincial People’s Committee
Bui Van Khanh speaks at the meeting.
Last year, the provincial Steering Committee on Administrative
Reform drastically directed administrative reform tasks. As a result, the
province improved performance in several criteria compared to 2018. New
initiatives and measures were implemented effectively while qualified personnel
were appointed in line with regulations. More documents were processed via the
public service portal at levels 3 and 4. Therefore, the score based on verified
documents in 2019 increased by 14.2 percent from 2018, and assessment score based
on sociological surveys of local leaders and surveys of public satisfaction about
service of State administrative agencies also increased significantly compared
to 2018.
However, the province’s PAR index only reached 79.44 percent
in 2019, placing the locality the 52nd out of 63 cities and
provinces, down six spots from 2018.
Concluding the event, Khanh lauded efforts by the provincial
departments and agencies to improve the PAR index and asked them to indentify existing
shortcomings to timely address them. In order to raise the local PAR index
ranking this year, he called for active involvement of the entire political
system. In the near future, the steering committee will convene quarterly
meetings and set up inspection teams to check administrative reform in units,
agencies and localities. Communication work should be promoted to raise public
awareness of the effort, and the result of the work must be included in the
annual assessment of units and localities’ performance, especially
responsibility of the top leaders./.
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.
