My hometown takes only one hour to make a death certificate, why does it take one day in Van Mieu ward?

Officials should not mechanically follow the "correct procedure" model like in Van Mieu ward (Hanoi).

After reading the storyof Ms. Vu Thanh Hoa (Dong Da district, Hanoi) about the journey of making a death certificate for her father at the People's Committee of Van Mieu ward, I am upset about the way it was done.the inflexibility of the staff and the explanation of the ward chairwoman.

In my hometown, death certificates are made very quickly. People go to the commune People's Committee to complete the procedure in less than an hour.Even on holidays, when the commune chairman or vice chairman hears of a death, he or she will visit the house to inquire and call the committee secretary to issue a death certificate for the people.There is never a day to pass.

I think this is a spiritual issue so the time to carry out the process should be flexible. Officials should not mechanically follow the "correct process" as told.Ms. Vu Mai Khanh - Chairman of Van Mieu Ward People's Committee, said:In principle, the issuance of death certificates will be processed and returned after one working day. Ms. Hoa went to the ward People's Committee to make a death certificate for her father at around 10:00 a.m. on July 19 and according to regulations, she would only get the results on the morning of July 20.

Previously, on the afternoon of July 25, social networks were abuzz with the story ofMs. Vu Thanh Hoa (Dong Da district, Hanoi)accuse ward officialsTemple of LiteratureThere are signs of harassment when people come to do procedures to request death certificate confirmation.

Ms. Hoa said that when she went to the ward to complete the death certificate procedure for her father, she had to wait, go back and forth many times and witnessed the indifferent attitude of the staff. When she questioned her, she was scolded for being "uncultured" and asked to leave the room. Because the ward staff was slow in completing the death certificate procedure, her father's funeral had to be postponed for a day.
