An Giang: Proposal to establish sub-zones in the two special economic zones of Phu Quoc and Kien Hai.

Phu Quoc is expected to have 8 specialized departments and 7 sub-districts.

According to the draft plan outlining the organizational structure of the political system and the functions, tasks, and powers of the Phu Quoc, Kien Hai, and Tho Chau special zones, the Phu Quoc special zone has a natural area of 575.29 ^km² and a population of 157,629 people, comprising 51 neighborhoods and 585 self-governing residential groups. The organizational structure of the political system in the Phu Quoc special zone, including the Party and mass organizations, will remain largely unchanged from the current framework.

Regarding the administrative structure in the Phu Quoc Special Economic Zone, it is planned to establish 8 specialized departments (an increase of 3 compared to the current number, including: Internal Affairs, Inspection and Justice, Education and Health) and 7 sub-districts including: Duong Dong (current administrative boundaries of the former Duong Dong ward), An Thoi (current administrative boundaries of the former An Thoi ward), Bai Thom (current administrative boundaries of the former Bai Thom commune), Cua Can (current administrative boundaries of the former Cua Can commune and the former Ganh Dau commune), Cua Duong (current administrative boundaries of the former Cua Duong commune), Duong To (current administrative boundaries of the former Duong To commune), and Ham Ninh (current administrative boundaries of the former Ham Ninh commune).

Each sub-district will have a Party committee, a Fatherland Front, and mass organizations, and two subordinate departments: a socio- economic department (equivalent to a departmental level within a provincial-level agency), and a grassroots security and order department (equivalent to a departmental level within a provincial-level agency). Each sub-district will have the following positions: sub-district head and deputy sub-district heads. Each department will have a department head and deputy department heads.

Regarding staffing, the current number of officials, civil servants, and public employees in the Phu Quoc Special Economic Zone will be maintained. At the same time, the number of provincial-level officials, civil servants, and public employees will be increased (prioritizing those with competence and experience in investment, planning, etc.) to fill the staffing quota for the Phu Quoc Special Economic Zone.

The Kien Hai Special Zone has a natural area of 24,749 ^km² , comprising more than 23 islands of varying sizes, 11 of which are inhabited, with a population of 22,358 people.

The organizational structure of the political system in the Kien Hai Special Zone will remain unchanged, including the Party and mass organizations, the number of specialized departments, the Public Administrative Service Center, and the Special Zone Military Command.

It is planned to establish four sub-districts directly under the People's Committee of the Special Administrative Region (equivalent to the current departmental level), specifically: Hon Tre, Lai Son, An Son, and Nam Du. Each sub-district will also have its own Party committee, Fatherland Front, and mass organizations, as well as two subordinate departments: a socio-economic department and a local security and order department.

As for the Tho Chau Special Zone, a Special Zone Political Center will be established. The Economic and Social Affairs Department will be reorganized into two departments: the Economic Department and the Culture and Social Affairs Department.

Establish a Comprehensive Service Center, a Tho Chau Medical Center (based on the consolidation and reorganization of the Health Station and the addition of functions and tasks as prescribed), and a multi-level school to meet the learning needs and suit the scale of the Tho Chau and Kien Hai special zones.

Complete the submission to the competent authority as soon as possible.
