Repairing and building new public housing to help officials feel secure in their work
Mr. Ngo Chi Cuong - Secretary of Vinh Long Provincial Party Committee - said that after Vinh Long province officially operated the 2-level government model from July 1, what he wanted most was that all cadres, civil servants, public employees, armed forces and people must join hands and be unanimous in thinking and acting.
According to Mr. Cuong, the immediate task is to stabilize the organizational apparatus and soon put the political system into effective operation.
Prioritize the smooth implementation of areas directly related to people such as public service provision, healthcare, education, culture and especially land administrative procedures - not to let congestion affect people and businesses.
Regarding the working place and accommodation for cadres after the merger, Mr. Cuong said that in the immediate future, the province will direct departments and branches under the old Ben Tre and Tra Vinh, if any department can be moved immediately to Vinh Long, then move it first, if any department can work online, then gradually move it later to reduce pressure, the working place as well as the accommodation.
The Secretary of the Vinh Long Provincial Party Committee added that the province has quickly repaired and upgraded existing headquarters and public housing, and at the same time studied investment in building new headquarters and public housing.
"The province also directed the Department of Education to prepare facilities and schools for the children of cadres and civil servants from far away to study in enough schools to study, so that the forces from far away to work in Vinh Long can feel secure in completing their tasks well," Mr. Cuong added.
