(HBO) – Hoa Binh city, a third-tier city subordinate to Hoa Binh province, was set up under the Government’s Decree 126/2006/ND-CP, issued on October 27, 2006. 2020 was a special milestone when the whole Ky Son district was merged into Hoa Binh city, giving it more growth momentum. Not only that the city now has a new look with its area reaching 348.65 sq.km., a population of over 135,000, and a Party organisation with more than 11,000 Party members, but its residents are also confident that the city deserves its status as the centre of Hoa Binh province.
