Reporter (PV): In recent times, what key and practical solutions has the Provincial Business Association focused on to create the most favorable conditions for businesses to operate effectively and contribute positively to the socio-economic development of the locality, sir?

Mr. Nguyen Xuan Thanh: 2024 is a year in which most businesses continue to face many difficulties and challenges in both production and business and export of goods. As the saying goes, "No pressure, no diamonds", in that context, the Association of Enterprises (HHDN) has always been aware of its responsibility to businesses. When businesses are successful, they are encouraged and cheered; when businesses encounter difficulties, they are shared and find ways to solve them together. The Standing Committee of the Association has promptly grasped the thoughts and aspirations, learned about the difficulties of businesses, advised the Provincial People's Committee to direct departments, branches and localities to remove obstacles, support investment promotion, trade promotion and market expansion; unite, be determined, and concentrate to overcome all difficulties and challenges.

In that arduous and difficult journey, enterprises always receive encouragement and sharing from provincial leaders, and the companionship of departments, branches, districts and cities. The drastic and effective direction of administrative procedure reform is an important factor for enterprises to overcome difficulties and challenges, attracting many domestic and foreign investors to Ninh Binh...

With the attention, orientation, and favorable conditions in terms of policies and mechanisms of the province, the solidarity and responsibility of the Association's leaders, and the efforts and dynamism of the Ninh Binh business community, businesses have quickly stabilized production and business, ensuring the lives of workers. Thereby, it has made important contributions to the socio-economic development results of the province, making Ninh Binh the 15th out of 63 provinces and cities nationwide, and the 5th out of 11 provinces and cities in the Red River Delta with an economic growth rate of GRDP in the first 9 months of 2024 reaching 8.45%.

PV: According to you, to achieve the above results, how has the provincial Business Association promoted its role as a bridge between the government and businesses, and a reliable support for the local business community?

Mr. Nguyen Xuan Thanh: For the business community and entrepreneurs of Ninh Binh, the Provincial Business Association has long been a "common home", a place to share their thoughts and aspirations, and more and more businessmen and enterprises trust and join in building the Association. Currently, the whole province has nearly 8,000 enterprises and affiliated units, of which more than 3,000 enterprises are members of the Provincial Business Association.

Ninh Binh province always encourages businesses to give their opinions on economic development mechanisms and policies and creates favorable conditions for businesses to constantly innovate and develop. From 2021, the provincial HHDN has been assigned a new responsibility as a consulting agency to develop the Department, Sector, and Local Competitiveness Index (DDCI). This is considered a tool to assess the strengths and weaknesses of departments, sectors, districts, and cities in implementing, building, and improving the investment and business environment for businesses and improving the province's PCI index.

At the same time, the Association is also a bridge to synthesize recommendations from member enterprises to submit to the Provincial People's Committee at conferences to remove difficulties for enterprises and regular meetings and direct meetings with enterprises. Thereby, it has created trust and encouraged enterprises to believe in the guidelines, policies and leadership and direction of the Party, Government, ministries, branches and Ninh Binh province. This has contributed to improving provincial competitiveness. In 2023, Ninh Binh's Provincial Competitiveness Index (PCI) ranked 19th with 67.83 points, up 25 places compared to 2022; up 39 places compared to 2021, the 3rd highest after 18 years of implementing PCI assessment. This shows that the quality of economic management of the province has been improved, the business environment is favorable, friendly, and administrative procedures have been improved.

In the spirit of democracy and equality, the Provincial Association of Enterprises also organized a delegation to learn from the experience of "Exchange, cooperation for mutual development" between Ninh Binh enterprises and the Vietnam Federation of Commerce and Industry, Thanh Hoa-Ninh Binh branch and Thanh Hoa province enterprises in 2024. Along with that, the Association coordinated with banks in the province to organize conferences connecting banks and enterprises with the desire to listen to the opinions of enterprises with the lending activities of the Bank, on that basis to jointly remove difficulties and obstacles and have solutions to strengthen, promote and cooperate in credit growth of business customers in the province.

PV: In addition to the achievements in economic development, Ninh Binh's business community is the core force in social security work. Could you please tell us about the specific results?

Mr. Nguyen Xuan Thanh: With a strong membership, the Ninh Binh business community not only plays a core role in developing the province's economy quickly and sustainably, but is also an important force to accompany the province in implementing social security policies. Entrepreneurs and businesses have actively participated in supporting the "Repaying gratitude and social security" Fund, the province's scholarship and talent promotion fund with tens of billions of VND. The provincial Business Association and its affiliated associations also have meaningful activities in charity work such as: Organizing gifts for the poor to celebrate Tet; organizing visits and gifts for the disabled, building houses of gratitude for families in difficult circumstances; supporting the Dinh Bo Linh Scholarship and Talent Promotion Fund and other funds... These are truly meaningful activities and bring practical results, highly supported by public opinion.

Some typical entrepreneurs and enterprises are: Xuan Thanh Economic Group; Thanh Cong Automobile Group; Xuan Khiem Group Joint Stock Company; Dong Giao Food Export Joint Stock Company; Viet Thang One Member Co., Ltd.; Hung Oanh Ninh Binh Construction Co., Ltd.; Xuan Quyen Construction Company; Tien Dung Paper Company; 1/5 Construction Co., Ltd., Truong Loc Company, Commercial Banking Block in the province...

In particular, Xuan Thanh Economic Group has made positive contributions to social security, charity, humanitarian work, and natural disaster prevention and control. Since the beginning of the year, Xuan Thanh Group has donated 10 billion VND to build the province's Gratitude and Social Security Fund, 3 billion VND to people affected by storm No. 3, and thousands of gifts to families with meritorious services and those in difficult circumstances on the occasion of holidays and Tet...

PV: Sir, in the context of global integration and digital transformation, what orientations does the Association have for Ninh Binh enterprises to develop and truly become an important driving force of the economy?

Mr. Nguyen Xuan Thanh: The planning of Ninh Binh province for the period 2021-2030, with a vision to 2050, approved by the Prime Minister, clearly defines the goal: Ninh Binh province by 2035 will become a centrally-run city with the characteristics of a Millennium Heritage City, a creative city, with tourism and cultural industry as spearheads, mechanical engineering and transport industry as driving force, emerging industries and services associated with innovative startups as breakthroughs, and multi-value ecological agriculture as a pillar.

In the new context requiring changes in line with the comprehensive change and integration of the province and the country, we have identified the need to focus on key contents: Continuing to accompany the province to effectively implement the programs and plans for economic and social recovery and development of the Central Government and the province; at the same time, further promoting the spirit of solidarity, self-reliance and self-reliance; proactively building strategies and production plans to ensure feasibility and effectiveness in practice. Focusing on restructuring enterprises, promoting innovation, digital transformation in enterprises, deeply participating in linkage chains and value chains, promoting the application of science and technology; risk management; developing sustainable business and green economy.

Reflect and discuss frankly at dialogues with Party committees and authorities at all levels the remaining problems to jointly remove and solve problems to improve the investment, production and business environment; strengthen joint ventures and associations between enterprises, support each other for mutual development, and create value chains in the production and processing sector.

Continue to innovate the content and methods of operation to improve operational efficiency. Continue to perform well the functions and tasks of representative organizations, acting as a bridge between enterprises and state agencies; create and foster solidarity, cooperation and mutual support among enterprises; promote the transformation of business households into enterprises, continue to arouse and encourage the spirit of entrepreneurship by establishing startup clubs in districts, cities, and startup incubators. Regularly organize forums for Party committees and authorities to dialogue with enterprises to promptly remove difficulties in investment, production and business.
