"Untie" administrative procedures
Moving to a two-tier local government model will eliminate intermediary layers, shorten processing times, reduce informal costs and increase operational efficiency for businesses.
As one of the enterprises operating in the field of resort tourism in Ta Dung commune, Phu Cuong Ta Dung Tourist Company Limited hopes that the 2-level government model will create conditions for enterprises to more easily connect tours and exploit destinations. At the same time, it will provide more support policies and reform administrative procedures for enterprises.
Mr. Pham Ngoc Ha - Director of the company shared: "This is an event that the business community has long been looking forward to. We believe that the new model will create more favorable conditions for businesses in accessing policies as well as implementing investment projects in the area".
According to many businesses, in the past, administrative procedures often had to go through 3 levels of government (commune - district - province), causing the process to be lengthy and potentially generating unofficial costs. Even when procedures were slow, businesses lost their "fire" or lost investment opportunities. Streamlining the apparatus to only two levels (province and commune) will help reduce time and costs; at the same time, limit the state of "running around in circles", causing difficulties for businesses.
Mr. Nguyen Chi Long - Director of Long Hue Investment Joint Stock Company, Tuy Duc commune, commented that the 2-level local government model will help to be more transparent and save time, this is a big plus. Now, if there is any problem, businesses can call directly to the commune leaders and it can be resolved immediately.
In particular, streamlining the apparatus and clearly decentralizing it will help businesses be more convenient in matters related to land, labor, investment procedures, etc. "We expect the new apparatus to operate effectively and transparently, quickly remove bottlenecks, and support businesses to develop sustainably in the locality," Mr. Long shared.
By the end of the second quarter of 2025, Lam Dong's GRDP growth will reach 5.97%. Of which, the service sector will increase by 7.83%; the agriculture, forestry and fishery sector will increase by 5.14%; and the industry and construction sector will increase by 3.79%.
Administrative digitization
A major advantage highly appreciated by the business community is that the administrative procedure reform process is associated with a strong digitalization trend.
Currently, most procedures related to taxes, business registration, including personal income tax or product traceability, etc. can be done online. This creates conditions for businesses, especially small businesses and startups, to operate more systematically, professionally and transparently.
Promoting digital transformation will help businesses carry out administrative procedures quickly, regardless of administrative boundaries. To date, Lam Dong Department of Industry and Trade has advised the Provincial People's Committee to issue 28 new administrative procedures. All procedures, dossier components, fees, charges are publicized, instructions are clear and easy to understand for people and businesses, and processing time is shortened.
The unit has guided businesses on how to submit documents on the online public service system. Information is widely provided in many forms such as: sending directly to businesses, zalo system of business groups, posting on electronic information pages... Thereby helping businesses conveniently perform online administrative procedures.
According to experts, operating a two-level government is considered a solution to streamline the apparatus, increase management efficiency, optimize resources and improve the business investment environment. This is also a factor contributing to improving component indicators in the provincial competitiveness index (PCI) such as: indicators on land access, time, informal costs, transparency, business support policies, etc.
For Lam Dong's business community, operating a two-level government will be an opportunity for breakthroughs, so that the spirit of entrepreneurship and innovation can have a healthy and increasingly effective development environment.
