Another difficulty is the change of the people, especially the cadres who are still afraid of conflict and innovation.
Chairman of the City People's Committee Tran Ngoc Tu said that in order for the city to truly develop faster and stronger, changes must be made from the city to the wards and communes.
Specifically, in leadership and management, there must be a change with a drastic and bold mindset, along with reducing meetings and documents. If leaders are in meetings all day and staff are busy writing reports, no one will work.
