Mr. Pham Van Hoang, Chairman of Binh Kien Communal People's Committee, said that during the time of reorganizing the administrative apparatus, the locality still received and handled administrative procedures for people and businesses normally, smoothly, seamlessly and effectively, without any interruption.
In Phu Hoa 1 commune, in the first 2 days of trial operation of the new apparatus, the commune held a conference to disseminate and deploy contents related to the trial operation of the Party, State, Fatherland Front and new socio-political organizations for cadres, civil servants and public employees of the commune; organized and operated the meetings of the Standing Board of the Commune Party Committee, the first meeting of the Executive Board of the Commune Party Committee, the first session of the Communal People's Council, the first session of the Communal People's Committee, and the meeting of the Standing Board of the Communal Fatherland Front Committee.

These scenarios are all very realistic, closely linked to local realities and the current context. The city will hold a meeting to review experiences on June 22nd so that the two-level local government can operate effectively from July 1st.
According to Mrs. Cao Thi Hoa An, Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, chairwoman of the Provincial People's Council, in addition to Binh Kien ward and Phu Hoa 1 commune, the Provincial Party Committee encourages districts, towns and city to select new commune-level administrative units for trial operation in places that have carefully and fully prepared the necessary conditions. The process of operating the trial apparatus must ensure the unified direction of the Politburo, the Secretariat and the Government on the principle of decentralization when organizing the trial operation of new commune-level Party, State, Fatherland Front and socio-political organizations. Provincial departments and branches, according to their assigned functions and tasks, shall proactively provide professional and technical guidance to commune-level agencies; promptly resolve difficulties and problems in the process of organizing the trial operation.
“The time of transferring the workload is very busy, many problems arise. The staff needs to be mentally prepared, not subjective, fully aware of the responsibilities as well as the difficult challenges, prepare knowledge, methods, and information so that the apparatus can operate best when officially put into operation”, Mrs. Cao Thi Hoa An emphasized.
