According to the Deputy Director of the HCMC Department of Information and Communications, administrative units at all levels are facing a human resource shortage. The Department is paying attention to HR training to provide professional staff to districts and departments to synchronously carry out the city’s digital transformation solutions.

Speaking at the event, Chairman of the HCMC People’s Committee Phan Van Mai highly appreciated the efforts of the People’s Committee of wards, communes, and towns in the city in building a sustainable administrative unit.

He emphasized that the local authorities need to check growth targets and accelerate the implementation of setting out tasks, plans, and emulation movements marking the 50th anniversary of southern liberation and national reunification (April 30, 1975-2025).

The HCMC People’s Committee has an implementation plan for Politburo’s conclusion 14 on encouraging and protecting the dynamic and innovative cadres who work for the common good.

He asked grassroots officials to seek ways to arouse the spirit of dynamism, “dare to think, dare to do” and creativity of employees, and listen to residents’ problems and solve their issues soon.

In the coming time, the city will implement projects on improving the skills and quality of cadres, civil servants, and public employees.

The municipal People’s Committee agreed with a proposal of the Department of Science and Technology on a pilot plan of selecting and developing a ward into a smart unit.

Districts will choose some wards to build them into smart agencies with the goal of not increasing the number of employees but tools and equipment for facilities to carry out digital transformation, the city’s chairman required.

On this occasion, 48 outstanding chairpersons of the People’s Committees of wards, communes, and towns were honored with certificates of merit of the Chairman of the HCMC People’s Committee.
