Secretary Nguyen Van Hieu assessed, if the current growth and development rate is maintained, it is possible that Thu Duc City will exceed the key targets in 2022.
In the first quarter of 2022, Thu Duc City has established research teams that will contribute opinions to develop projects for specific mechanisms and policies for Thu Duc City to effectively implement Resolution 08 of the Standing Board of the Ho Chi Minh City Party Committee. Moreover, it has proactively coordinated with related agencies to solve backlogs in Thu Duc city.
In respect of the economy, from the beginning of the year until now, Thu Duc City has collected VND8,575 billion from the state budget, reaching 39.8 percent of the total estimate in 2022. Furthermore, it has issued 948 business registration certificates with a total registered capital of VND24.7 billion.
As of March 2022, 40,894 business households in the area registered a total capital of nearly VND31,000 billion and 44,556 domestic enterprises are performing tax obligations with a total registered capital of VND 661,662 billion. Thu Duc City has disbursed more than VND 58.6 billion for public investment.
However, the progress of disbursement of public investment capital and the work of compensation for site clearance in the quarter was slow, concentrated capital and ODA only reached 0.82 percent of the plan due to the difficulty in collecting transaction contract information as a basis for making land valuation certificates such as land price adjustment coefficient, resettlement price for submission for appraisal and approval.
Some projects have not been approved by the People's Committee of Ho Chi Minh City for resettlement, so they have not yet submitted the land price adjustment coefficient plan to calculate compensation, support and resettlement.
