What specific mechanism for Thu Duc city to develop?

 

Thu Duc City is amalgamated from District 2, District 9, and Thu Duc District.

In order to create a specific development mechanism commensurate with the position and role of Ho Chi Minh City, the 14th National Assembly issued Resolution 131/2020/QH14 and the National Assembly Standing Committee issued Resolution No. 1111/NQ-UBTVQH14 (effective from January 1, 2021) on the organization of urban government and the establishment of Thu Duc city, under Ho Chi Minh City.

To meet that expectation, right from the beginning of 2021, leaders of Ho Chi Minh City have issued many decisions, including arranging the contingent of cadres, civil servants, public employees, employees and non-professionals. responsibilities at the commune level and handle policy regimes for redundant cases when organizing urban government and establishing Thu Duc city.

* Need special policy

Evaluation after one year of establishment and operation of Thu Duc city, Mr. Hoang Tung, Chairman of Thu Duc City People's Committee said: Thu Duc city still operates like the previous district-level administrative unit. Therefore, there should be a chapter in the Law on Organization of Urban Government that regulates the organization and operation of "city within city", this is not only for Thu Duc city but also for the city model of cities in many countries. other local.

From an expert perspective, Mr. Tran Hoang Ngan, Director of the Ho Chi Minh City Institute for Development Studies, said that the Thu Duc city government still does not really have an appropriate legal framework to actively organize the implementation of the project. economic and social activities in the area under the guidance, support, supervision and inspection of the Ho Chi Minh City government and central agencies.

In which, focus on decentralization of investment decision-making authority, organizational structure, personnel, public land auction, public service bidding, removal of restrictions on market entry conditions for businesses”, suggested Mr. Tran Hoang Ngan.

Sharing the same opinion, Mr. Tran Du Lich, an economic expert, said that the implementation of Thu Duc city's activities is suggesting that Ho Chi Minh City needs to ask the Central Government to pilot three mechanisms for Thu Duc city, including: authority to issue legal documents; competence in investment management in the fields of land, planning, construction and environment; authority in public finance.

“Thu Duc city is the model of “city within city” for the first time stipulated in the Constitution and implemented into real life.
