Chairman of the communal People’s Committee Tran Duy Tien reported that local preparations for the election have been carried out in a coordinated manner, in line with the schedule and legal regulations. The commune has set up 20 polling stations across its 20 villages and hamlets, with a total of 6,903 voters.
As an area home to many ethnic minority communities and with thriving community-based tourism that attracts a steady flow of domestic and international visitors, Pu Luong commune has identified ensuring security and social order as a key task to maintain a safe and stable environment for the election.
N.A. Vice Chairman Phuong spoke highly of the commune’s preparations, noting that tasks have been performed carefully, ensuring progress in line with regulations.
He urged the commune to review plans on coordination with relevant forces, clearly assign responsibilities, and proactively monitor the situation from an early stage to avoid any unexpected incidents or even minor mistakes.
Phuong also asked the local authorities to step up inspections of election preparations, ensure the proper distribution of voter cards, and arrange locations where voter lists, candidate lists and their biographies can be publicly displayed in places easily accessible to voters.
In addition, clear guidance should be provided to help voters identify the correct ballot boxes for electing deputies to the N.A. and to provincial and commune People’s Councils.
