Although completed in 2020, after 3 years, the new Chi Cong market (Chi Cong commune - Tuy Phong district) was officially put into operation right on the days before the Lunar New Year of Giap Thin 2024 in the joy and excitement of the local people.
Happy New Year's Eve
On the morning of January 16, 2024, small traders officially moved to trade at the new market. After more than half a month of operation, traders and people have gradually gotten used to going to the market in a new, more spacious location and feel happy because the locality has a clean and beautiful market. This is the effort and determination of the entire political system from the province, district, and locality, especially with the support of traders and the consensus of the people. It is known that small traders have been trading at the old market in Chi Cong commune for decades. This market has a small area, the end of the polluted river is quite shabby and damp... With the help of calling for investment from the district, the Party Committee and the government of Chi Cong commune have proactively advised the district to plan land for the market, calling for socialization of market construction and the investment is carried out by Phan Dinh Construction Company Limited. The market began construction in 2019 and was completed at the end of 2020. The new market is large, beautiful, spacious and airy. Currently, more than 200 small traders have agreed to sign business contracts at the new market. The investor has also had many incentives, motivations, priorities and support for small traders in the early stages of entering the new market.
However, due to disagreement on the rental price as well as changes compared to the original contract, some traders have not agreed to enter the new market. Therefore, the Front and unions from the district to the commune have actively participated throughout the process of coordinating with the authorities and localities to propagate and mobilize traders and people to agree from the initial stage until the new market comes into operation. Phan Dinh Construction Company Limited has issued documents to attract traders to the market such as: free flowers for the new Chi Cong market, allowing traders to sell for 1 month without paying rent; such as free flowers for 5.5 months (from January 15, 2024 - June 30, 2024), free lot rental for 1 month (January 15, 2024 - February 15, 2024). For small traders who do business irregularly, the daily rent will be exempted for 2 months (January 15, 2024 - March 15, 2024), the rental price will be applied at the time of 2018, 60 - 71% lower than the price regulated by the Provincial People's Committee, with a public sign posted at the market.
Previously, Mr. Nguyen Trung Truc - Chairman of the District People's Committee chaired a meeting with traders, promptly grasped their thoughts and aspirations, and clarified their questions. Thereby, 100% of traders agreed and highly agreed to trade at the new market, households that had not registered went to the Market Management Office to draw lots to receive seats. In addition, local authorities, the Fatherland Front, and commune organizations supported traders in transporting goods from the temporary market to the new market, and increased propaganda in many appropriate forms for union members, association members, and people to participate in shopping at the new market. Thanks to that, on the morning of January 16, 2024, traders came to the new Chi Cong market to trade busily, and people participated in shopping at the new market happily and enthusiastically. Many people said that they were very happy that the commune had a new, clean, beautiful market, ensuring food safety and hygiene, and fire prevention. People shop more conveniently, go to the airy market, and are no longer afraid to go to the market on rainy, stormy, sunny and windy days like before.
Need consensus from the people
It is known that the Chi Cong Market project is invested by Phan Dinh Construction Company Limited. Up to now, the investor has completed all procedures and has been inspected, licensed and accepted by competent authorities for completion and put into use according to regulations. In the past, traders at Chi Cong Market have submitted 2 petitions to the Provincial Citizen Reception Committee (including 74 petitions).
Accordingly, the Provincial People's Committee has directed the Tuy Phong District People's Committee to preside over and coordinate with relevant departments, branches and units to review the legal documents of the market according to regulations; organize a meeting to publicly inform about the investment policy, inspection work, licensing authority and acceptance of the Chi Cong market project. After that, the Tuy Phong District People's Committee has directed the Chi Cong Commune People's Committee to organize a public announcement at the market and directly inform each small trader about the preferential rental price for the market. At the same time, explain, propagate and mobilize small traders about the policy and guidelines for moving the temporary market to the new market, create consensus, continue to negotiate and sign contracts.
Pursuant to Decision 1601 dated June 26, 2019 of the People's Committee of Binh Thuan province, the temporary market area (old market) will be invested in building a green park to better serve the environmental improvement and urban infrastructure improvement by 2035. The new market is built on a convenient route for trading goods, serving the buying and selling needs of people in 3 communes and towns: Phan Ri Cua, Chi Cong, Hoa Minh. Therefore, putting the new market into operation right before Tet will contribute to serving the local socio-economic development; ensuring civilized trade, food safety, fire and epidemic prevention. In the future, this will be a shopping destination for tourists because the market is located on a route with great potential to attract visitors from inside and outside the province.
The District People's Committee also requested Phan Dinh Construction Company Limited to be responsible for inviting, mobilizing and creating favorable conditions for small traders to enter the new market to do business and trade; to organize many new activities (such as organizing a Tet flower market...), creating a bustling atmosphere in the days before Tet. Actively coordinate with the People's Committee of Chi Cong commune to stabilize business and trading activities at the market and ensure security and order in the locality in the coming time.
