Prensa Latina's article on Vietnam’s assurance of smooth and effective transition to a leaner structure

Prensa Latina has shown particular interest in the Southeast Asian country's efforts to simplify administrative procedures. The writing quoted Minister of Home Affairs Pham Thi Thanh Tra's statement at the National Assembly as confirming that local authorities are fully prepared to implement the new two-tier local government model. Since officials and civil servants represent the crucial factor determining the success of this reform effort, it is necessary to restructure and improve human resources quality for the complete transition from traditional administrative management to people-centered governance.

In another article published on June 17, Prensa Latina cited Deputy Finance Minister Ho Sy Hung's affirmation that the reform will expand space for socio-economic development, promote the attraction of high-tech projects, semiconductor manufacturing, and green industry investments. Meanwhile, Deputy Minister of Home Affairs Truong Hai Long emphasized that the new model will save the state budget while facilitating investment and inter-regional infrastructure development.

With continuous institutional reforms, Vietnam is progressively realizing its goal of building a modern and transparent administrative system centered on citizens and businesses. The two-tier local government model is expected to make a significant contribution to the country's sustainable development process, according to the news agency.
