Vietnamese citizens who meet the above criteria are allowed to sign contracts to perform professional or technical work or to assume management and operational positions at public service units under the management of the City.

Foreigners with high professional qualifications, extensive practical experience, whose works or products have been accepted, recognized, and applied with high efficiency may sign contracts to perform the tasks of building, developing, managing, and protecting the Capital.

Those who are selected, accepted or signed to work contracts as prescribed in points a, b and c of this clause shall enjoy the regimes and policies prescribed by the City People's Council.

In addition, the City People's Council decided on the following policies on developing high-quality human resources in the Capital: prioritizing the development of high-quality human resources, reaching regional and international levels in sectors and fields to meet the requirements and tasks of building, developing, managing and protecting the Capital in each period.

Use the City budget to support investment in facilities and equipment of key national training facilities in the City.

Use the city budget to support training costs, foster and improve professional skills at foreign training facilities for cadres, civil servants and public employees working in agencies, organizations and units under the city's management, and students of educational and training facilities in the city.

Regarding attracting and employing talented people and developing high-quality human resources as stipulated in the Capital Law, this is a major and important policy. If the Capital cannot attract and employ talented people and does not have enough high-quality human resources, it will not be able to achieve the goals set out in the Capital Law.
