Mr. Tran Hoang Tuan - Chairman of People's Committee of Quan Bau Ward
Discussing the wishes of the Quan Bau ward government with the Vice Chairman of the Vinh City People's Committee, Mr. Le Sy Chien said that after the Provincial People's Committee issued a decision to reclaim the land of the Viet Nhat High-Quality Vocational Training Center Project, the relevant agencies assigned with the task will need some time to carry out the land reclamation procedures, including handling the assets built on the land according to the provisions of law.
However, the Vice Chairman of Vinh City People's Committee recognized that the wish of Quan Bau Ward People's Committee is a matter worth considering.
Mr. Le Sy Chien added: “In my opinion, the use of land for public purposes should be prioritized, moreover, the use for educational purposes is also consistent with the planning. However, the People's Committee of Quan Bau Ward needs to review the current scale of school areas in the area to have data to compare with the standards and norms; coordinate with the Department of Education and Training and the school to review the population size to predict the number of students in the future..., to have a report and recommendation to the City People's Committee. Only then will the City People's Committee have a basis to report to the Provincial People's Committee and competent authorities...".
