Established on May 5, 1950, the district is honored to be named after the Hero of the People's Armed Forces Tran Van Thoi - a staunch revolutionary. During the resistance war as well as the period of peace and renovation, this land has always been a solid rear base, a pioneer in many revolutionary movements.

Considered a miniature Ca Mau, Tran Van Thoi district is the only locality in the province that converges all the typical ecosystems: rice, sea, and forest. With the largest rice area in the province, and the most bustling Song Doc estuary in the Mekong Delta, these factors not only create a unique identity, but also help the district rise up, playing the role of one of the economic growth poles of the province.

The district has 13 commune-level administrative units, with a population of nearly 250,000 people; 10 specialized agencies under the District People's Committee, and 80 public service units. The district Party Committee has more than 6,000 party members.

Thoroughly implementing the policy of the two-level government model according to the Resolution of the National Assembly Standing Committee, Tran Van Thoi district has been proactive, determined but also very cautious in each step of implementation. The merger of commune-level administrative units was carried out in accordance with the process, ensuring the legitimate rights of the staff, and receiving high consensus from the people.

Determining that streamlining the apparatus is not only an organizational problem, but also a strategic step to improve the efficiency, effectiveness and efficiency of the political system, with the goal of developing the homeland and the country, improving the people's lives in the new revolutionary period, Tran Van Thoi district has urgently completed the arrangement of administrative units on schedule. After the arrangement, the district has 5 commune-level administrative units, including: Tran Van Thoi, Song Doc, Khanh Binh, Khanh Hung and Da Bac.

As a son of his homeland, Mr. Kieu Minh Tieng, Vice Chairman of the District People's Committee, belongs to the next generation of young cadres. With a special affection for his birthplace, he has made significant contributions to the development of the locality over many years of work. After the reorganization, the province will transfer him to Dat Mui commune (currently Ngoc Hien district). He believes that as a cadre and party member, no matter where he works, he is contributing to his home province.

“ Tran Van Thoi district is not only the place where I have worked for many years, but also the place where I have devoted all my heart and witnessed every step of change of a district rich in tradition and affection. Being assigned to a new task in Dat Mui commune, far from the provincial center, I understand that this is a challenge and also an opportunity for me to continue to contribute. The valuable experiences, training and working process in Tran Van Thoi district will be the luggage to help me complete my tasks well in the new unit”, Mr. Kieu Minh Tieng shared.

Before the end of district-level activities according to the policy of implementing the 2-level government model (from July 1, 2025), Tran Van Thoi district has excellently completed the political tasks assigned by the Party, State and People, with outstanding achievements in socio-economic development, making important contributions to the overall development of the province.

Each step of Tran Van Thoi district's transformation bears the mark of solidarity and unanimity. Now, the policy of abolishing district-level administrative units and merging communes is considered by me as a necessary transition, in line with the development requirements of the times. I leave my position with an optimistic mindset, always trusting and following the next generation, who will continue to write the journey of Tran Van Thoi homeland in a new, modern and more integrated way.”
