The progress of the program implementation encountered some difficulties. In the first 6 months of the year, localities focused on perfecting the apparatus and adjusting documents, leading to delays in implementation and disbursement.

Vice Chairman of the City People's Committee Tran Anh Tuan emphasized that in the current difficult context, departments, branches and localities must show determination and seriousness.

“First of all, it is necessary to focus on thoroughly understanding responsibilities and prioritizing capital disbursement with the viewpoint that “one dong of public investment capital can lead three dongs of social capital”. The practical benefits of public investment ultimately still go to local people.

Currently in the final stage, the end of the fiscal year and the end of the implementation stage, the administrative apparatus has just come into operation so the pressure is very high. However, units and localities must make every effort to implement.

Communes should promptly contact relevant departments and branches to remove obstacles and promptly advise the City People's Committee on solutions to speed up the implementation of the National Target Program," the Vice Chairman of the City People's Committee emphasized.
