In order to effectively implement the work of contacting, dialoguing and promoting the role of the Fatherland Front (MTTQ) and socio-political organizations in gathering and reflecting people's opinions, on April 29, the Vietnam Fatherland Front Committee of Binh Thanh Ward organized the "Month of Listening to the People" conference with the theme "Urban Management - Environmental Sanitation in Residential Areas, Apartment Buildings, Boarding Houses", combined with the "Great Unity Morning Coffee" model.
No longer formal meetings, the morning coffee model has become an open forum, where people frankly reflect, exchange openly and show responsibility to the community.
Here, delegates and people raised many opinions, focusing on practical issues such as accumulated domestic waste; encroachment on sidewalks and alleys for trading; management of garbage at boarding houses; sorting of garbage at source in apartment buildings; maintaining urban aesthetics; the situation of stray dogs causing unsanitary conditions. At the same time, people proposed to replicate models such as alleys without garbage, green - clean apartment buildings.
Opinions are recorded by local authorities, clearly assigning people, clear tasks, and clear handling time. Contents under their authority are resolved immediately; complex issues are summarized, monitored and publicly responded to the people, and at the same time, good models and effective ways of doing things are being deployed.
Through this model, the ward government not only promptly handles issues of urban management and environmental sanitation but also contributes to raising community awareness, promoting the supervisory role of the People, towards building neighborhoods that are increasingly clean - green - civilized - meaningful, for people's happiness.
