(HBĐT) – The provincial tax department, on January 5, held a conference to review its 2021 performance and deploy tasks for 2022. Attending the event were Quach Tat Liem, Vice Chairman of the Hoa Binh People’s Committee; and Dang Ngoc Minh, Deputy General Director of the General Department of Taxation.
Quach Tat Liem, Vice
Chairman of the Hoa Binh People’s Committee, presents the committee’s
certificates of merit to organisations and individuals with outstanding
performances in the taxation sector.
In 2021, given COVID-19-induced difficulties,
the provincial department decided to focus on tackling obstacles facing tax
payers. As a result, the local total state budget revenue reached 5.168
trillion VND (227.5 million USD), 24.3 percent higher than Government estimate
and up 35.4 percent annually.
Implementing the Government’s tax support
policies for people and businesses affected by COVID-19 last year, the
department extended the deadline for the payment of tax and land rent worth
about 179 billion VND, while reporting 45 billion VND worth of tax exemption
and reduction.
In 2022, the province is assigned to collect a
budget revenue of 3.582 trillion VND by the Government and the Ministry of
Finance; and of 6.095 trillion VND by the provincial Party Committee, People's
Council, and People's Committee. The tax department has set out four key task
and four groups of solutions to reach the goals.
Addressing the function, Minh and Liem requested
the entire sector to closely follow directions of the General Department of
Taxation and local authorities as well as the local socio-economic development
in fulfilling their assigned tasks.
Liem noted that it is necessary to capitalise on
the province’s potentials for boosting investment attraction and creating
sustainable incomes.
Increasing inspection and examination works is
also needed to prevent revenue loss, reduce tax-related debts, and meet the
targets, he added./.
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.
