Kim Bang has become a bright spot in the socio-economic development of Ha Nam Province, achieving a high economic growth rate of about 13.4 percent per year while the poverty rate was reduced to only 1.34 percent.

Specifically, building new-style rural areas has been the most outstanding achievement of the district. Kim Bang was the first district in Ha Nam recognised as having met all criteria set for new-style rural areas in 2017, three years ahead of the set target. The district is also striving to achieve town status by 2025.

Kim Bang is also the first district in Ha Nam having 100% of its schools recognised as meeting national standards.

Secretary of Ha Nam Provincial Party Committee Le Thi Thuy congratulated Kim Bang District on its achievements, saying that the recognition is an important milestone in the development process of the district, creating premise and motivation for Kim Bang to continue to develop further.

She asked the district to focus on COVID-19 pandemic prevention and control while supporting pandemic hit people and enterprises to restore and promote production towards building the district into a key tourism-service and industry centre in Ha Nam Province.
