Tan Binh District leaders said that in the two proposed options, the district hopes to approve option 2 (arrange 15 wards into 4 wards, reduce 11 wards).
Tan Binh District currently has 15 wards, with a population of 466,671 people and a total area of 22.39 km2.
The People's Committee of District 12 has just submitted a document to the People's Committee of Ho Chi Minh City and the Department of Home Affairs proposing a plan to arrange and demarcate commune-level administrative units. District 12 currently has an area of 5,277 hectares, with 11 wards and 339 neighborhoods. Implementing the policy of streamlining the apparatus, District 12 proposed two options to merge wards. However, with a population of nearly 800,000 people, the arrangement into 3 wards causes great pressure, so the district proposes to arrange into 4 wards.
Option 1 is to arrange 11 wards to 3 wards.
Merge Tan Thoi Nhat, Tan Hung Thuan, Dong Hung Thuan, Trung My Tay wards into Tan Thoi Nhat ward.
Merging Hiep Thanh, Thoi An, Tan Thoi Hiep, Tan Chanh Hiep wards into Tan Thoi Hiep ward.
Merging Thanh Xuan, An Phu Dong and Thanh Loc wards into An Phu Dong ward.
Option 2 is to arrange 11 wards to 4 wards.
Merge Tan Thoi Nhat, Tan Hung Thuan, Dong Hung Thuan, Trung My Tay wards into Tan Thoi Nhat ward.
Merging Tan Thoi Hiep and Tan Chanh Hiep wards into Tan Thoi Hiep ward.
Merging Hiep Thanh ward and Thoi An ward into Thoi An ward.
Merging Thanh Xuan, An Phu Dong and Thanh Loc wards into An Phu Dong ward.
