In particular, regarding the issue that many voters are concerned about, which is the handling of 14 remaining collective housing areas in Vinh City, the Provincial Party Secretary shared the difficulties in voters' lives and analyzed that these are collective housing areas with many difficult factors, so they still exist.

Therefore, Mr. Thai Thanh Quy hopes that the relevant voters need to cooperate, unite, reach consensus, and be highly unified in the process of resolving these collective housing areas. This is a very important factor because there are many situations that occur during the arrangement process, so if the people do not reach consensus, unite, and reach high consensus, it will be very difficult for the province and Vinh City to implement.

If the Provincial People's Committee still has not reached a final solution after the meeting, it should report to the Provincial Party Committee Standing Committee to listen and give its opinion on solutions.
