According to the Ho Chi Minh City People's Council, 2025 will conclude with a special milestone in the history of its organization and operation, clearly demonstrating its role as a pillar of the institutional framework, maintaining stability for the apparatus and creating a legal foundation for the new development phase of this special urban area.
In the first half of 2025, prior to the merger, the People's Councils of the localities held 14 sessions, passing 155 important resolutions in the fields of public investment, planning, land, organizational structure, and specific policies. This is the "institutional preparation" phase, ensuring that all major decisions are meticulously prepared, synchronized, and have high consensus.

Subsequently, the Ho Chi Minh City People's Council continued to hold sessions, issuing more than 420 resolutions, focusing on reviewing, amending, and abolishing outdated regulations, while simultaneously issuing new policies to ensure uniformity and consistency throughout the city. In particular, the resolution review process was considered a major institutional overhaul, with 162 resolutions reviewed and adjusted, creating a transparent and stable legal framework for urban management.
The Ho Chi Minh City People's Council believes that 2025 is not just an annual activity year, but a pivotal year for institutional reform, marking a strong transformation in the process of building and developing a special, modern, sustainable city for the people.
In particular, immediately after the merger, the Ho Chi Minh City People's Council accelerated digital transformation in accordance with Resolution 57, building and operating a unified People's Council information portal that is interconnected throughout the entire system within the two-tiered local government model.
