According to the project, the new province after the merger will be named Tay Ninh, with the administrative-political center located in Tan An city (currently Long An province). However, to ensure a smooth transition and reduce difficulties in travel and living of cadres, civil servants and public employees, there will be a plan to arrange personnel to work in parallel at both the current administrative headquarters of Tay Ninh province and the new administrative center.

The allocation of forces is calculated based on the conditions of information technology infrastructure, the level of digital transformation, and local characteristics. This is considered a reasonable step in the context of consolidation, both maintaining the efficiency of the apparatus and ensuring psychological stability for the civil servant team in the initial stage.

Over the years, Long An and Tay Ninh have been dynamic localities, playing an important role in the Southern Key Economic Zone. Both provinces possess strategic locations, connecting with Ho Chi Minh City and the Cambodian border provinces, with advantages in developing both high-tech industry and agriculture.

Long An is located at the gateway to the Mekong Delta, bordering many large provinces and cities and is considered an economic "bridge" between regions. This province has strongly developed its industrial park system, transport infrastructure, and attracted domestic and foreign investment capital.

Tay Ninh is also growing strongly thanks to the improved transportation system, especially the routes directly connecting to Long An such as DT 822, DT 823, DT 825 - playing a key role in the supply chain and circulation of goods between the two localities.

Besides, Tay Ninh possesses great potential for tourism development thanks to outstanding destinations such as Moc Bai International Border Gate, Cao Dai Holy See, Dau Tieng Lake, Ba Den Mountain tourist area,... and valuable cultural and historical relics.

The merger of the two provinces will expand development space, improve the efficiency of resource use, increase synchronization in technical and social infrastructure planning, thereby creating a strong lever for regional economic growth. At the same time, this model is expected to improve the quality of life for people, making the new Tay Ninh province a dynamic development center in the South.
