Speaking at the meeting, Ms. Ton Ngoc Hanh expressed her appreciation for the enthusiastic and responsible opinions of the voters. The opinions of the voters are not only suggestions, but also advice for the development of the province in the coming time.

Chairman of Dong Nai Provincial People's Council Ton Ngoc Hanh said that some initial difficulties after merging and operating the two-level local government in the new province include: The arrangement of headquarters, personnel and equipment for some communes and wards is not yet synchronized; some legal documents are not yet complete, making the procedures for disbursing public investment capital difficult; the system for storing and synchronizing administrative data, especially between the two old provinces, is not yet complete, affecting the progress of work processing.

Alternate member of the Party Central Committee, Standing Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, Chairman of the People's Council of Dong Nai province Ton Ngoc Hanh answered voters' opinions.

At the same time, post-merger support policies are still slow due to many reasons, including delays in issuing new resolutions, difficulties in the implementation process, and the need to readjust data and approval processes. These issues affect the payment of subsidies to civil servants, workers, the elderly and non-professional workers after the merger at the commune, ward and residential area levels.

Therefore, in the coming time, the province will focus on overcoming the above-mentioned shortcomings, while promoting the disbursement of public investment capital, prioritizing important and strategic transport works and projects.

Regarding the Gia Nghia – Chon Thanh Expressway Project, Ms. Ton Ngoc Hanh emphasized that this is a key project, which, once completed, will create new development momentum for the large northern area of ​​Dong Nai province. Therefore, regarding opinions related to this project, the province and the two localities will organize separate working sessions with voters; at the same time, hoping that in the coming time, voters will continue to accompany and support the project so that it can be implemented and put into use soon.
