Up to now, the government apparatus in the new communes and wards has basically stabilized and operated smoothly; the staff and civil servants have quickly adapted, promoted a high sense of responsibility and a clear attitude of serving the people.

“On behalf of the City People's Council, I acknowledge and appreciate the efforts of all levels, sectors and agencies in the political system in promptly and actively preparing and effectively implementing the two-level government model,” the Chairman of the City People's Council emphasized.

The economy is growing well but there are still many difficulties.

Assessing the situation in the first 6 months of the year, Mr. Le Truong Luu said that Hue City has made efforts to overcome difficulties, united to well implement the policies of the Central and City Party Committee with a large amount of work, with remarkable results. The economic growth rate reached 9.39%; total social investment capital was over 19,000 billion VND; budget revenue was nearly 7,500 billion VND (reaching 60.1% of the estimate); public investment disbursement reached 56.33% of the plan. The cultural and social fields have improved; social security, national defense - security, foreign affairs, Party building and the political system have all had positive changes.

However, Chairman of the Hue City People's Council Le Truong Luu also frankly admitted: The economy is still small in scale, some key industries have decreased sharply (beer, textiles, cement, frit enamel, etc.). Large projects and plans and site clearance work are still slow. Newly established enterprises are not many, while the number of enterprises ceasing operations is increasing. Tourism products are not diverse, agriculture is facing difficulties, and has not attracted many investors. The two-level government model still has some initial problems, while issues of food safety, counterfeit goods, trade fraud, etc. continue to pose great challenges.

“We need to look directly at the existing problems, especially the subjective causes in the implementation organization, to have feasible solutions, to achieve the highest economic growth target of 10% or more in 2025, and at the same time operate smoothly the urban government model,” Mr. Le Truong Luu emphasized.
