At the discussion session in the group on May 23, delegate Bui Hoai Son (Hanoi Delegation) was interested in personnel work at the ward and commune levels after the reorganization.
According to delegate Son, this is a major decision not only to streamline the apparatus and save the budget, but also to create a modern and effective administration.
Delegate Bui Hoai Son expressed his opinion: "I ask a not-new, but necessary question at the present time: Should we boldly empower those with sufficient capacity, specifically, to have the Party Secretary of the commune and ward Party Committee simultaneously hold the position of Chairman of the People's Committee at the same level?".
This is the viewpoint and thinking not only of delegate Bui Hoai Son, but also a concern and concern of many people responsible for the country. There have been many opinions proposing to unify these two titles, just as delegate Son said, "not new".
Not new, but it has not been done before. However, this is a progressive viewpoint, so we must discuss carefully to make a decision. In particular, this is the right time to make drastic changes.
Arrange and streamline, there needs to be a breakthrough in the organization of the apparatus. The uniformity between the roles of Party leadership and government administration is something that needs to be taken into account.
Two positions become one, that is streamlining.
If one person holds two positions, no longer asking for opinions from another, work will be smooth, and the state-civil relationship will be handled and resolved quickly. That is efficiency, effectiveness, efficiency.
People and businesses do not care whether there are two secretaries and chairmen or one officer holding two positions, but people need to enjoy high-quality administrative products. If one cadre solves the problem faster than two cadres, the people will choose one.
Many also believe that if a person concurrently holds two positions, he will concentrate power, be authoritarian, and lead to mistakes, even violations.
This concern is well-founded, so selecting people is an important and decisive step. If the person is chosen incorrectly, even if there are two cadres holding two positions of secretary and president, it will still not be successful.
If two cadres have limited abilities, lose solidarity, obstruct each other, and divide the raft to attract wings, then what is the use of simulation?
Regarding concerns about authoritarianism, delegate Bui Hoai Son said: "The grassroots political system still has the Party Committee, People's Council, Fatherland Front and socio-political organizations, along with the strict monitoring institutions that have been established and perfected over the years".
In addition to the political system, there are also people who monitor. In the technology era, there are many ways to bring true or false to light.
