(HBO) - On July 13, 2017, the 16th provincial Party Committee issued Resolution 17 on developing the province’s driving force zone until 2020, with a vision to 2030. This resolution grouped nine communes and townships of Lac Thuy commune into the economic driving force zone. After the merger of administrative units, the zone currently comprises six localities, namely Ba Hang Doi township, Chi Ne township, and the communes of Phu Thanh, Phu Nghia, Dong Tam, and Yen Bong.
Workers of the WILLSON joint Stock Company, based in Phu Thanh commune
of Lac Thuy district, produce wooden items and floorboards.
With high political resolve, Party committees
and authorities in Lac Thuy have carried out concerted and breakthrough
solutions to help the district tap into its potential.
The district considers investment attraction as
a breakthrough solution to develop the economic driving force zone. Thanks to
considerable efforts by local authorities over the past years, Lac Thuy has
made steady strides in investment attraction, thus creating an optimal and fair
business climate for businesses and investors. It has also increased
coordination in trade promotion, participation in fairs and exhibitions,
popularisation of its image, and infrastructure building, especially in
industrial clusters.
The lodestar for this focal task was the
district Party Committee’s Resolution 14, issued on April 16, 2013, on
investment attraction for 2013-2018. As a result, Lac Thuy was home to 45
projects with total registered capital of nearly 14 trillion VND as of June
2018. The number of projects increased to 50 and capital to over 17 trillion
VND by the end of 2019, including 28 industrial projects, nine agricultural
projects, and seven mineral mining and processing ones.
To promote the effectiveness of investment
attraction, Lac Thuy has made use of every capital source from the central and
local budgets to develop infrastructure at industrial clusters.
In particular, Hoa Binh province’s key projects
in the district are being accelerated, including the Huong Binh cable car
project worth over 1.7 trillion VND of the Pacific Corporation in Phu Nghia
commune, and the Xuan Thien lime and calcium carbonatepowder factory
invested with more than 8 trillion VND in Yen Bong commune.
Authorities of Lac Thuy are set to select
projects that have least impact on the environment, especially in the upstream
Boi River which supplies water for locals’ daily use, and focus on
environmentally friendly projects like eco-tourism, resort, golf and cable car
ones./.
Kim Boi district is drafting 23 planning projects which are expected to help boost the local socio-economic development, attract investors, and mobilise resources for development, said Vice chairman of the district People’s Committee Tran Tuan Son.
They include the one on Bo urban area development until 2045, 20 zoning, and 12 on rural residential areas in communes.
This year, Hoa Binh province strives to have eight communes recognised as meeting new-style rural area standards and five communes satisfying exemplary new-style rural area standards. Since the beginning of the year, the provincial People's Committee has drastically directed the implementation of the national target programme on new-style rural area building to fulfil the set target.
Cao Phong district achieved positive socio-economic development results last year as drastic comprehensive measures were implemented with high determination of its whole political system, said the Secretary of the district Party Committee Ha Van Di.
Lac Son district boasts a vast area and large population, with about 90% of the population living in rural areas, and hence the lowest level of urbanisation in the province. The district has issued a resolution on urban development, plans and projects for urban development along with a roadmap, aiming to achieve an urbanisation rate of 15% by 2025 and 25% by 2030 by developing urban areas in the towns of Vu Ban, Muong Vo, and Muong Khoi according to urban levels.
Doan Ket, a remote commune of Yen Thuy district, has more than 98% of its population being people from ethnic minority groups, mainly Muong. Over the past years, local residents have upheld the tradition of solidarity as well as their trust in the leadership of the local Party committee and administration to make joint efforts to develop their hometown and meet new-style countryside criteria.
Over recent times, the implementation of the single-window mechanism for administrative procedure settlement in electronic environments at various units and localities has seen positive changes.
