Nsolid foundation for innovation, development and integration
The year 2025 is a milestone of special historical significance, marking 80 years since the founding of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam - the first worker-peasant state in Southeast Asia, founded and led by President Ho Chi Minh, opening a new era in the nation's history: the era of national independence associated with socialism.
Through many stages of the Revolution, the Socialist Republic of Vietnam today has been constantly improved in the direction of democracy, professionalism, openness, transparency and serving the people. That process has affirmed the absolute leadership role of the Communist Party of Vietnam; the superiority of the political regime; and at the same time is a vivid proof for the development of the theory of the Vietnamese socialist rule of law state - a modern state model, suitable to the characteristics of the nation and the times.
In the history of building and innovating the State, Nghe An - the hometown of President Ho Chi Minh - stands out with a special position, both as the cradle of revolutionary tradition and as a space for lively experimentation of two-level local government. Entering a new phase, Nghe An is facing significant development opportunities and challenges: the need to promote industrialization - modernization, international integration, digital transformation, improve public administration capacity and build an honest, effective, and people-friendly government.
In recent times, Nghe An has achieved many important achievements in the process of innovation and integration. The government apparatus at all levels has been gradually improved towards streamlining, effective and efficient operations; administrative reform has had clear changes, the PAR Index and SIPAS satisfaction index have been increasingly improved.
Nghe An has seriously grasped and implemented the Central Government's policies on innovation and reorganization of the government apparatus towards streamlining, effective and efficient operations, especially the organization and operation of two-level local governments from July 1, 2025.
These results reflect the great efforts of the local political system in improving the quality of services for people and businesses, while creating a favorable environment for socio-economic development.
However, reality also shows that Nghe An is facing many difficulties, challenges, and obstacles, and there are still many bottlenecks that need to be resolved, especially in the organization and operation of the two-level local government in 130 commune-level administrative units at present.
For Nghe An, building an effective, efficient and efficient local government is not only an objective requirement for development, but also a profound political commitment to the people. A grassroots government that is increasingly close to the people, closer to the people, and better serves the people will be a solid foundation for Nghe An to arouse its aspirations to rise up and become a well-off province in the country, contributing worthily to the cause of building and firmly protecting the Socialist Republic of Vietnam.
