Accordingly, the neighborhoods in Dong Ha ward have established working groups to gather public opinion on the plan for rearranging and naming new residential areas. The public consultation period began on June 15, 2026. The working groups directly visited each area to disseminate information about the purpose and significance of the rearrangement, and to record the opinions of voters representing households regarding the proposed rearrangement and naming of residential areas. The rearrangement will contribute to streamlining the administrative apparatus, efficiently utilizing resources, improving governance quality, and better serving the people.

Mr. Le Van Quyen, Head of the Security Team in Ward 3, Dong Ha Commune, expressed: "Through carrying out our duties and observing the situation in various households, I have noticed that the majority of residents highly agree with the plan for rearranging the residential areas that the commune has proposed."

Meanwhile, Mr. Nguyen Duc Chinh, Head of Neighborhood 1, Dong Ha Ward, said: “The neighborhood has promptly assigned tasks to its members and organized a meeting with residents. At the same time, members have been assigned to directly distribute and collect questionnaires to gather opinions from residents in the neighborhood in a timely and proper manner.”

Seeking public opinion on this project is not only a matter of complying with regulations but also demonstrates the people's right to self-governance, following the principle of "the people know, the people discuss, the people do, the people inspect, the people supervise, and the people benefit." Every contribution is significant, reflecting responsibility and affection for the development of their homeland.

Ms. Luong Thi Dieu, from residential area 3, Dong Ha ward, shared: “Having the ward officials come to my house to explain the reorganization of the residential area and the naming of new residential groups, I wholeheartedly agree with this policy of the ward. I hope that the reorganization will help the locality expand its development space, contribute to changing the urban landscape, and further improve the lives of the people.”

Each neighborhood is not just an administrative landmark but also connected to traditions, community spirit, and cultural values ​​cultivated over generations. Therefore, the implementation process has been marked by many concerns and anxieties among residents regarding the changes, which is understandable and relatable. However, the important thing is that after the reorganization, these positive values ​​will continue to be preserved and promoted within the new community; the spirit of solidarity and unity will remain a strong bond connecting every resident of Dong Ha.
