Notably, the headquarters of the Binh Duong Statistics Department (formerly) is located at the corner of Doan Thi Lien street and Le Thi Trung street, Phu Loi ward, Ho Chi Minh City.
On March 25, according to reporters' records, the two gates of this headquarters were closed. Inside the campus of about 1,000 m2, it is abandoned, overgrown with weeds and trees, and has not been cut down for a long time.
Inside the headquarters, there is a 2-story main building with closed doors, covered with dust inside. Three small blocks around are also closed. The security guard's house right at the entrance door has been damaged, the surrounding area is messy. According to records, many items of the blocks are degraded, showing signs of damage.
According to people, the prolonged abandonment of the old headquarters causes waste of public property. Meanwhile, the locality is in great need of public space such as parks and schools.
I often pass by here and see that the headquarters of the Binh Duong Statistics Office is left empty, which is very wasteful. This facility is overgrown with grass and trees, while people lack places to exercise or overloaded schools also need more classrooms. I hope the State will soon calculate, convert functions, and re-exploit the old headquarters to serve the people," Mr. Nguyen Thanh Hiep (45 years old, residing in Phu Loi ward, Ho Chi Minh City) expressed.
Talking to reporters, leaders of Phu Loi Ward People's Committee said that the locality has established a survey team for old headquarters, including the headquarters of the Binh Duong Statistics Department in the past. The survey team has recorded the advantages and difficulties and proposed planning orientations and effective use of public land funds. Through this, in order to serve the development of social welfare infrastructure in the locality such as: construction and expansion of school systems, medical facilities, parks and green trees, and neighborhood offices.
According to the leader of Phu Loi Ward People's Committee, the ward has reported and proposed to convert the function of the old headquarters of Binh Duong Statistics Department into a school. Departments and branches of Ho Chi Minh City have come to inspect and survey again. Units are carrying out procedures for transfer to the locality. When the procedures are completed, this headquarters will be repaired for use as a school on the desk.

According to records, in addition to the above facility, in Phu Loi ward, there are also some old surplus headquarters, completely vacant or only partially used, such as: the former headquarters of Binh Duong Irrigation Sub-Department on Doan Thi Lien street, the old headquarters of Binh Duong Television Station on Binh Duong Avenue, the old headquarters of Binh Duong Provincial State Treasury on Binh Duong Avenue, the former Binh Duong Provincial Digital Transformation Center on Trinh Hoai Duc street, the old Thu Dau Mot Citadel on Hoang Hoa Tham street,...
