According to the plan of Hai Duong People's Committee, the arrangement of communal administrative units in the province, the arrangement and reorganization of commune -level administrative units must follow the current regulations, and at the same time set in the overall context of the merger of the provincial administrative units and reorganize and reorganize communal administrative units in the localities expected to merge (Hai Duong and Hai Phong City).
The plan emphasizes that the arrangement must be based on geographical location, natural conditions, current infrastructure such as highways, national highways, river systems, isolated hills, etc. These factors may cause some administrative units after the arrangement to have larger or smaller areas or populations than the regulations, but still ensure reasonableness and convenience in management and development.
For some specific areas (such as the planning area of specialized economic zones in Thanh Mien district and Binh Giang district, urban areas with dynamic orientation according to provincial planning), implement the arrangement of unlimited commune-level administrative units within the administrative boundaries of the current district and commune levels.
During the implementation process, the province requires full consideration of factors related to historical traditions, culture, ethnicity, religion, customs and practices and connection of the historical relic system. At the same time, it ensures national defense, security, social order and safety and sustainable development of the locality.
Regarding names, new administrative units need to have short, easy-to-remember names, associated with district, town, city names and numbered in order. For example: Hai Duong 1 ward, Hai Duong 2 ward; Nam Sach 1 commune, Nam Sach 2 commune...
This reorganization of commune-level administrative units not only helps streamline the apparatus, improve management efficiency but also expand development space, increase connectivity and create momentum for synchronous development between regions in Hai Duong province and areas expected to be merged with Hai Phong city in the future.
