It is recommended that comrades appointed by the Provincial Party Committee Standing Committee and assigned tasks to newly arranged and merged units need to make more efforts to approach many new tasks to operate the unit more effectively, and advise the Provincial People's Committee and the Provincial Party Committee Standing Committee on new areas that are more effective. In particular, when units come into operation, heads must quickly develop plans, action programs, regulations, and rules, build a united collective so that the unit can operate smoothly and continuously in a streamlined, effective and efficient manner.
With new roles and tasks, units need to innovate effectively, contributing to the province in carrying out the political task for the Central Government of creating high growth momentum in 2025 (over 9%). At the same time, Party committees, units and localities need to stabilize the ideology, cadres, civil servants and public employees; focus on successfully organizing Party congresses at all levels for the 2025-2030 term.
