Breakthrough tasks; plans for organizing socio-economic activities; urban system planning; planning of industrial parks, clusters, economic zones, etc.

Comparing and evaluating the planning of the two provinces before the merger is an important step to identify commonalities, differences and challenges in forming a unified overall provincial planning after the merger.

Regarding the review of mechanisms, policies, financial situation, assets, and headquarters of the Project on arrangement and merger of the two provinces, the functional units have accelerated the implementation progress such as: Consulting on determining investment incentives and investment procedures in case of changes in administrative boundaries; synthesizing and proposing mechanisms and policies for synchronous socio-economic development when merging provinces to ensure maintaining and promoting the growth rate of the province; changing information on business registration certificates and business licenses of individuals and organizations, etc.

In the field of finance and assets, the arrangement of working headquarters to assist the Steering Committee for the Project on arrangement and merger of administrative units at the provincial level of Dong Nai and Binh Phuoc has proactively reviewed the situation, deployed a number of tasks and determined the direction for continued implementation to ensure stable and smooth operations after the merger of the two provinces.

Based on the 2025 state budget revenue estimate assigned by the People's Council of Dong Nai province and the People's Council of Binh Phuoc province, the total state budget revenue estimate for 2025 of Dong Nai province after the rearrangement (new province) reaches over 73.6 trillion VND, ranking 4th out of 34 provinces and cities nationwide. The revenue regulation ratio between the central budget and the new Dong Nai province budget after the rearrangement in 2025 is 59.5%.

Speaking at the meeting, Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee Ho Van Ha said that currently, there are no new guidelines for planning work. Therefore, the units implementing the merger are still implementing the two approved plans of the two provinces, which are still legally valid.

In addition, the Departments of Finance, Construction, Justice, etc. continue to review the planning work, policies, finance, assets, etc. of the two provinces to unify the contents and plans when merging the two provinces.

To effectively review planning as well as policies, finance, assets, etc. after the merger, Chairman of the Vietnam Fatherland Front Committee of the province Cao Van Quang requested that planning review units must ensure the implementation of projects.

In particular, the planning of Binh Phuoc after the merger will become Dong Nai province. Review the planning of each commune and district level to consider the legality after the merger. On that basis, synthesize, report, and advise the provincial leaders on key issues that need leadership and direction, and at the same time prepare documents for the upcoming Party Congresses at all levels.

Calculate priority resources in Dong Nai and Binh Phuoc to have a plan to select and implement to ensure harmony and mutual development. Introduce planning contents to ensure conditions for interested investors to introduce and seek investors. Must allocate specific time to perform tasks, ensuring synchronous and effective division of labor.
