(Baonghean.vn) - After many years of implementing the model of organizing the secretary and hamlet chief, Thanh Chuong district has now had 107/506 hamlets implementing it, bringing high efficiency in directing the implementation of the Party and State's policies and guidelines at the grassroots level.

Recalling the 10 years as hamlet chief, Mr. Nguyen Van Thu in Linh Long hamlet, Thanh Linh commune found it extremely difficult. Not being a party member, not being allowed to attend or discuss village issues, he had to organize the implementation of the Party cell meeting resolutions.

Not to mention the fact that in terms of receiving, disseminating and implementing the resolutions of higher levels, he and the Party cell secretary were always different, rarely coordinating smoothly, so it was not effective. Mr. Thu concluded: The secretary only talked but did not do, I did but was not allowed to talk. Both of us suffered. I realized: the secretary who is also the village chief is the best.

The story of Mr. Nguyen Van Thu in Linh Long village, Thanh Linh commune is just an example of the individual's cognitive process as well as the specific results of personnel organization work when organizing a branch-level party congress in Thanh Chuong.

Pursuant to Official Dispatch No. 04-CV/BTCTU, dated April 14, 2017 of the Provincial Party Standing Committee, Thanh Chuong District Party Committee promptly issued Instructions for Party cell congresses and directed the District People's Committee to issue instructions for conducting conferences.Election of village, hamlet, block and commune chiefs to focus on implementing the model of secretary concurrently being hamlet, block and commune chief.

After the implementation process, up to now, 506/506 (100%) rural party cells have organized congresses for the 2017-2020 term; Of which, 107/506 units have implemented the model of Party cell secretary and hamlet chief (compared to the 2015-2017 term, an increase of 100 comrades), and 206 Deputy Secretary and hamlet chief; The number of hamlet chiefs who are the masses has decreased by 64 people compared to the previous term.

Through the implementation process, the outstanding advantages of the model of secretary and hamlet chief have been confirmed in practice. Mr. Nguyen Van Ngoc - Secretary of Thanh Phong Commune Party Committee said: As a large Party Committee with 17 rural Party cells, the model of secretary and hamlet chief was rarely implemented in the past, but this term, there have been 10 Party cells with secretary and hamlet chief, and only one mass hamlet as hamlet chief because there are too few Party members. Reality shows that if you prepare carefully and smoothly, anything can be done.

Also expressing excitement at this result, Mr. Dang Anh Dung-The Standing Deputy Secretary of Thanh Chuong District Party Committee further emphasized: Wherever the model of secretary and hamlet chief is implemented, all movements are very strong..This is an important result in organizational work, of closely following the guidance documents of superiors with the policy of implementing the model of Party cell secretary and deputy party cell secretary concurrently being hamlet chief.

However, reality also reflects specific difficulties in rural party cells, where there are few young party members, limited qualifications and capacity, so they do not dare to take on tasks. This will be one of the contents that needs to be further focused on and trained to prepare for the next terms.

In fact, the model of secretary and hamlet chief is not new. However, due to many reasons, it is difficult to implement it widely, so through a congress, having more units implement it is a joy, because it contributes to creating a streamlined apparatus structure. The treatment regime is improved, so cadres feel secure in working and contributing.

When we are proactive in “talking and doing”, the reception, implementation and organization of the policies and guidelines of the Secretary and Hamlet Chief will certainly be more convenient and effective. From there, we will promote the comprehensive leadership role of the Party cell in managing and operating the hamlet in all areas, in line with the roadmap for implementing the Resolutions set out by the Party Congresses at all levels.
