(HBO) – Secretary of the provincial Party Committee Ngo Van Tuan recently had a working session with the Management Board of Industrial Parks (IPs) of Hoa Binh province to look into local industrial development.
The working session between Secretary of the provincial Party
Committee Ngo Van Tuan and officials of the Hoa Binh Management Board of
Industrial Parks.
Hoa Binh province houses eight IPs that are
included in Vietnam’s IP development plan until 2020. They cover more than
1,507ha of land, equivalent to 0.33 percent of the province’s area. So far,
three of these IPs, namely Luong Son, Yen Quang, and Bo trai Song Da (Left Bank
of the Da River), have had infrastructure investors while four have welcomed
secondary investors with 60 of the 98 registered projects already operational,
greatly helping with economic restructuring, job creation, and increase of
export value.
Despite this, the number of investment projects
in these IPs remains modest and their registered capital is still small. There
are certain obstacles to site clearance for projects while industrial
infrastructure has yet to be developed synchronously, making IPs unattractive
to secondary investors.
Facing those problems, representatives of provincial
departments and sectors proposed several solutions to reach the targeted 1
percent of the province’s area for industry. In particular, they suggested more
attention be paid to planning, coordination be boosted to handle administrative
procedures, poor-performing investors be strictly dealt with, and capable ones
be selected to step up industrial development.
Addressing the session, Secretary of the
provincial Party Committee Ngo Van Tuan cited the Resolution of the 17th provincial
Party Congress as stating that industrial development is the momentum for the
local economy, and that priority must be given to industrial infrastructure
development, the occupancy rate at IPs be raised to 80 percent, and 1 percent
of the province area be zoned off for industry by 2025.
To realise the above-mentioned targets, high
resolve and effective methods are needed to tackle bottlenecks in industrial
development, he said, asking the management board and the provincial Department
of Industry and Trade to work together to draft orientations for industrial
development which must ensure environmental protection, prioritise industries
with high added value, and be associated with urban area and service
development.
Relevant agencies need to complete the
industrial development plan; align their sectors’ development plans with the
provincial one; increase the management of planning, especially land planning;
and deal with projects lagging behind schedule.
The Civil Party Affairs Board of the provincial
People’s Committee has to direct relevant agencies to build regulations on
coordination in dealing with administrative procedures for businesses and set
up criteria for selecting capable infrastructure investors so as to attract
investment to industrial development./.
Nguyen Phi Long, alternate member of the Party Central Committee and Secretary of the Hoa Binh provincial Party Committee, and other officials on April 8 examined some key transport projects, namely the road connecting Tran Hung Dao Road and Dan Chu ward with National Highway 6, the regional connectivity road linking Hoa Binh and Hanoi with Son La Expressway (Hoa Binh - Moc Chau), and the first phase of a road from Luong Son township of Hoa Binh to Xuan Mai township of Hanoi.
Hoa Binh province recorded nearly 20 cases of religion-related wrongdoings in 2023 and the first two months of 2024. However, thanks to their active and effective engagement, relevant agencies and religious organisations have helped the provincial and district-level People’s Committees deal with those cases in a timely manner and in line with legal regulations, thus ensuring religious freedom.
The Hoa Binh provincial People’s Committee held its monthly conference in virtual form on April 2 to review draft documents to be submitted to the standing board of the provincial Party Committee and others under its management along with some other important issues. Vice Secretary of the provincial Party Committee and Chairman of the provincial People’s Committee Bui Van Khanh chaired the event, which was connected with the people's committees of districts and cities in Hoa Binh.
Smokeless 'Hoang Cam' kitchen was a small yet extremely significant initiative of a soldier chef named Hoang Cam in the Hoa Binh campaign in 1951 – 1952.
