To date, this has become a "bottleneck" directly affecting the quality of life and urban image. Accumulated garbage, overloaded gathering points, and widespread foul odors make the goal of building a "Green - Clean - Beautiful" Capital face many difficulties. Why is a task that has a full process, guidance and has been urged many times still delayed?
The reality of re-implementation shows a worrying gap in enforcement capacity. Many localities are confused in preparing bidding documents, developing technical plans, and even not understanding the bidding process for public utility services.
The consequences of this delay are not on paper, but are present every day in people's lives. Waste is not collected in time, wastewater leaks on roads, overloaded collection points... not only cause environmental pollution but also directly affect community health. More worryingly, this situation, if prolonged, will create a "bad habit" in the community, when people gradually accept shabbiness as a normal thing.
Another issue that also needs to be frankly acknowledged is the weak intercommunication and synchronization in implementation organization. In adjacent areas, the handover between bidding packages is not clear, causing waste to be missed. This shows that management is not only slow but also lacks systematism and close coordination between units.
From the story of environmental sanitation bidding, a reality can be clearly seen: Decentralization is not synonymous with laxity.When power has been given to the grassroots level, responsibility must be even clearer, more specific and linked to sanctions.Otherwise, decentralization will inadvertently become a "management gap", where weaknesses in implementation are easily revealed and prolonged.
To overcome this situation, first of all, it is necessary to tighten discipline and administrative order.It is unacceptable to delay progress without a specific responsibility assessment.Localities that have caused prolonged pollution need to be seriously reviewed, even considering the responsibility of the head.
The application of technology in environmental monitoring also needs to be promoted. Camera systems and digital data can completely help monitor and detect garbage congestion points early, thereby having timely handling measures. More importantly, publicizing the implementation progress of each locality will create social pressure, forcing units to act faster and more drastically.
In the long term, it is necessary to re-examine the organization of environmental sanitation services in a professionalized direction. The selection of contractors must not only stop at price criteria, but must be linked to capacity, technology and service quality commitments. Only then can environmental sanitation work be truly stable and sustainable.
A civilized Capital cannot coexist with streets full of garbage, gathering points that smell bad. And it is even more unacceptable that the "bottleneck" in implementation is prolonged month after month. Slow bidding is not only slow for a process, but also slow for the quality of life of the people.
It is time for a substantial movement from the grassroots level, where each commune and ward must truly become the "front line" in environmental protection. When responsibility is seriously implemented, when discipline is tightened, then the big goals of a green, clean, and beautiful Hanoi can become reality.
