Administrative Reform, delivers a closing remark of the conference.
Overall, the province's PAR index has increased in scores from 2016 to 2020. It
has been up 8.78 percent over the past five years with a year-on-year rise of
2.22 percent in 2020 alone.
There has been
improvement in many areas including directing the administration of PAR,
reforming administrative procedures, building and improving the quality of the
contingent of cadres, civil servants, and public employees, public finance
reform, and administrative modernisation. Building and enhancing the quality of
cadres, civil servants, and public employees, public administration reform,
administrative modernisation are the ones that enjoy the highest growth.
At the conference, the provincial PAR steering committee also pointed out the
limitations, namely a low disbursement of State invested capital of some
agencies and localities in 2020. The proportion of online public services at
levels 3 and 4 of the province provided on the National Public Service Portal
hasn't been met the requirement. State budget revenue in 2020 did not achieve
the set plan and the growth rate of the gross domestic product in the locality
was not higher than that of 2019. The four socio-economic targets in 2020 did
not meet the desired target.
Bui Van Khanh, Deputy Secretary of the provincial Party Committee, Chairman of
the provincial People's Committee and head of the provincial PAR steering
committee, emphasised that to improve the PAR index, departments, agencies, and
district’s People's Committees should strengthen leadership, focusing on
completing their set targets.
It was necessary to attach the responsibility of the leader in completing the
targets, he said.
The Department of Science and Technology was assigned to enhance solutions to
implement initiatives in PAR. Attention should be paid to completing the
arrangement of the state apparatus after merging, restructure of specialised
divisions, concentrating on carrying out measures to meet the disbursement plan
for State budget investment. The inspection of official duties and enforcement
of discipline should also be intensified./.
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.
