Comrade Nguyen Duc Trung - Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee received Mr. Hoang Khac Hung (Block 1, Nghi Thu Ward, Cua Lo Town) and a number of business households at the beach east of Binh Minh Street. These citizens petitioned the competent authority to resolve the issue of extending the business time at the beach east of Binh Minh Street when there is no investment project.

Mr. Doan Tien Dung - Chairman of the People's Committee of Cua Lo town said that the policy of clearing kiosks in the park area east of Binh Minh street was agreed upon in 2005 but has only been implemented for many reasons. This policy was agreed by the people and by the end of October 16, 100 business households had dismantled their kiosks, 16 households were dismantling, 69 households had moved their assets, and the remaining 24 kiosks had not been dismantled.

Clarifying the legal basis, the Chairman of the People's Committee of Cua Lo town said that of the 209 kiosks along the beach on the east side of Binh Minh street, 116 kiosks' contracts expired in 2015 and were renewed year by year; 93 kiosks' contracts expired in 2020 and were also renewed year by year in 2021 and 2022. "The economic contract between the ward and the people clearly states that by September 30, 2022, the owners of kiosks and bus stations must dismantle all items and hand over the premises to the People's Committee of the town to implement the planning without requiring any other compensation or support," Mr. Dung emphasized.

The Standing Committee of Cua Lo Town Party Committee determined that the issue of clearing kiosks in the park area east of Binh Minh Street is an important task, requiring focused direction and implementation "at lightning speed", clearing synchronously, simultaneously, quickly, without exception. In parallel with clearing kiosks, the Town People's Committee has also taken steps to relocate agencies, units, organizations, and households with land in the area east of Binh Minh Street. After clearing, households who want to continue doing business will be introduced and contacted by the People's Committees of the wards to rent land on vacant lots west of Binh Minh Street.

After listening to the opinions of the people and Cua Lo town, Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee Nguyen Duc Trung said that the policy of clearing kiosks in the park area east of Binh Minh Street of Cua Lo town was unanimously approved by the province and assigned to Cua Lo town to implement. During the implementation process, the People's Committee of Cua Lo town organized the implementation seriously, in accordance with the law, openly and transparently, and paid attention to ensuring the legitimate rights and interests of the people.

"The policy of clearing the kiosks in the park area east of Binh Minh Street is for the common benefit of the province and the locality. Because Cua Lo is a coastal tourist city of Nghe An, with an important position and role in the socio-economic development of the province. The clearing of the kiosks in the park area east of Binh Minh Street aims to rearrange and re-plan the space for developing Cua Lo coastal tourism in a more modern and effective direction." - The Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee emphasized.

On that basis, Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee Nguyen Duc Trung also affirmed that the citizen's request to extend the business time at the beach on the East side of Binh Minh Street, Cua Lo town has no basis for consideration. In case the citizen sees that the government is violating regulations, affecting his/her rights and causing damage to his/her interests, the citizen has the right to complain and file a lawsuit in court for resolution.

In order to share the difficulties of the people, the Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee said that he had directed Cua Lo town to ensure compliance with legal regulations and ensure the legitimate rights and interests of households during the implementation process. However, when the regulations have been fully implemented and the rights of the people have been guaranteed, he asked the people to agree, support and comply with the clearance and dismantling of the kiosks.

The Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee also requested Cua Lo town to continue to implement the clearance plan in accordance with the policy agreed upon by the province. For households that have not yet implemented it, continue to propagate, mobilize, and comply with the demolition. At the same time, organize planning, arrange new locations, ensure that households in need of renting premises can continue to do business in the following tourist seasons, ensuring aesthetics and the environment. After the clearance, specialized agencies will proceed to organize the planning of a truly modern, beautiful, landscape-appropriate park area for tourism development.

Next, Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee Nguyen Duc Trung received citizen Ho Sy Trac (residing in Hamlet 3, Dien Truong Commune, Dien Chau District). Mr. Trac requested the competent authority to resolve the social insurance regime for him, who was a tractor driver at the Agricultural Mechanical Station from 1968 to 1992.

After receiving the citizen's profile, on March 25, 2022, the Department of Agriculture and Rural Development sent an official dispatch requesting the Dien Chau District Social Insurance and the Provincial Social Insurance to consider submitting to the competent authority to resolve the social insurance regime for Mr. Ho Sy Trac. In which, it clearly stated that Mr. Ho Sy Trac's working time and process is 24 years and 1 month.

However, after reviewing Mr. Trac's records, based on legal regulations of different periods, the leader of the Provincial Social Insurance said that there was not enough basis to resolve the social insurance regime for Mr. Ho Sy Trac, because the records were incomplete and inconsistent.

After listening to the citizens' petitions and opinions from various sectors, Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee Nguyen Duc Trung shared the situation and the more than 18 years of pursuing the request to resolve the social insurance regime of Mr. Ho Sy Trac.

"The general view is that anything that benefits the people and does not violate the law must be considered and resolved in a reasonable and sympathetic manner." - The Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee emphasized.
