Speaking at the session, National Assembly Chairman Tran Thanh Man stated that, unlike previous elections, this election is taking place in the context of implementing a two-tiered local government model, a model of urban government organization, and a local government system that has been reformed, perfected, and will begin operating from July 1, 2025.
