N.A. deputies vote to approve a resolution on the establishment of centrally-run Hue city. |
Under the resolution, which will come into effect from January 1, 2025, the centrally-run city will be based on the entire natural area of 4,947.11 sq.km and a population of 1,236,393 from the Central province of Thua Thien Hue.
The National Assembly tasked the N.A. Standing Committee with determining the arrangement and establishment of district and commune-level administrative units within Hue city, ensuring that these changes take effect simultaneously with the resolution. Agencies, organizations, and units whose names are tied to the province of Thua Thien Hue will be renamed to reflect the city’s new status.
The establishment of centrally-run Hue city will be a driving force for the Government, Party committees and local authorities to implement approved urban development plans and programs, with specific investment and development directions and plans to enhance urban quality, fast, strong and sustainable urban economic growth, thereby gradually increasing per-capita income and other development indicators in the city.
