Cadres, party members and people in the commune highly agree with the merger plan.
Documents and papers related to the area and population of Nang Tay 2 and Nang Tay 3 villages are available.
“The Party Committee, government and people in the commune hope that after the merger, the province and district need to pay attention to investing so that the commune has synchronous infrastructure. In particular, it is necessary to invest in building a bridge connecting My Thanh with Bach My village to create momentum for local socio-economic development,” Mr. Ngoc suggested.
Regarding the staff, civil servants, and part-time workers at the commune level and resolving the regime and policies for redundant cases; the arrangement and handling of headquarters and public assets have also been developed for implementation to maintain stability.
