Ms. Nguyen Thi Ha - a resident of Phu Thuong ward shared, "We also believe that this administrative unit arrangement is an opportunity to concretize the major policies and orientations of the Central Government and the construction and socio -economic development plans of the Capital; creating motivation for the city to reorganize the development space of localities, including Phu Thuong craft village, thereby improving the material and spiritual life of the people".

Chu Huu Hong, Party Secretary of Residential Group No. 4 of Nhat Tan Ward, said that the residential group has distributed ballots to each household to collect opinions on the plan and name of the administrative unit after the merger. The majority of voters and people of Residential Group No. 4 agreed with the city's arrangement plan that had been announced to the people. With the new plan, the administrative units will be more compact, in line with the development planning of the capital. The name is also consistent with the existing administrative boundaries. Some people are also somewhat concerned about the fact that part of the boundary of Nhat Tan Ward (the area outside Au Co Street along the Red River) will have a new name, Hong Ha. This is a peach-growing residential area with an area of ​​nearly 100 hectares. Voters and people hope that after the arrangement and merger, Hanoi city will have reasonable studies to suit the socio-economic development situation in this area.

According to the plan, Tay Ho District People's Committee will continue to collect public opinions on the arrangement of ward administrative units until 11:00 a.m. on April 21, 2025. Tay Ho District requests departments and offices under the district to urgently direct, monitor and grasp the ideological situation of cadres, party members and people in the process of implementing the reorganization of administrative units at all levels and building a two-level local government organization model; synthesize the results of collecting public opinions throughout the district and complete it immediately on April 22, 2025.
