The above is the content of Official Dispatch 11 of the Steering Committee for the arrangement of administrative units at all levels and the development of a model of organizing local government at both levels of the Government on guiding the standards for the title of civil servants at the new commune level.
After the merger, the population is larger, the functions and tasks of the commune level are heavier, so it requires standardizing the qualifications of commune-level cadres and civil servants, the requirement to have a university degree or higher is appropriate.
As of December 31, 2024, the number of commune-level cadres and civil servants is over 212,600 people, of which 92.4% are university graduates or higher. Thus, by the end of 2024, there were more than 16,100 commune-level cadres and civil servants without university degrees.
For the number of cadres and civil servants without university degrees, according to current requirements, they do not meet the standards, of course they are not recruited.
With 92.4% of people with university degrees, it is also impossible to arrange enough jobs after the merger, but must be screened to recruit the right number of personnel for the commune level.
When merging at the commune level and removing the district level, localities will transfer cadres from provinces and districts to communes and wards, so there will be many redundant commune-level civil servants.
Therefore, it is necessary to select and find people with real capacity to arrange jobs, not everyone with the same qualifications, everyone who meets the job requirements.
It is necessary to face the reality that many people are looking for this or that way to get a university degree, even a real one, a scholar. The provision of a bachelor's degree in English from Dong Do University is an example.
Not to mention, even higher degrees such as master's and doctoral degrees are five or seven types. The cases of "paper" doctoral degrees, "incubator" doctoral degrees, and doctoral degrees but fake high school degrees are reported by the press, showing the current status of academic degree quality.
Therefore, priority must be given to people with a university degree or higher and who are of high quality and have graduated regularly from prestigious universities. A professional degree must be suitable for the job position, it is not possible to get a bachelor's degree in chess or a master's degree in badminton to work as an investment or land officer.
People with many university and master's degrees should take the exam for recruitment, ensuring transparency, objectivity, and fairness.
Assessing cadres and civil servants based on specific criteria and standards, without the intervention of relationships, dynasties, or even currency, only then can truly capable people be selected.
