According to comrade Nguyen Van Nen, Resolution 98 is not separate from the political tasks of Ho Chi Minh City but on the contrary, actively supports the stability and development of the city, ensuring social security. Specifically, Resolution 98 contributes significantly to achieving growth indicators and stabilizing the Ho Chi Minh City budget and other important targets.

However, he also pointed out the shortcomings and obstacles in implementing Resolution 98 in the coordination of actions, with manifestations of perfectionism, hesitation, fear of risk and passive attitude. In addition, many stages of work are facing difficulties and many officials are overloaded due to the huge workload of Ho Chi Minh City.

Therefore, the Secretary of the Ho Chi Minh City Party Committee requested the entire political system of Ho Chi Minh City to raise awareness, consciousness and responsibility in implementing Resolution 98. Along with that, strengthen discipline and order in leadership, direction and administration.

In the context of the complicated and unpredictable developments in the world, region and the country, the Secretary of the Ho Chi Minh City Party Committee assessed that the tasks of Ho Chi Minh City are always affected by many external factors. Ho Chi Minh City cannot solve all problems by itself, so it is necessary to have a long-term vision to predict and forecast important issues in order to both adapt flexibly and take firm and sustainable steps.

Faced with the increasingly overloaded workload of Ho Chi Minh City, Comrade Nguyen Van Nen informed that Ho Chi Minh City has proposed to add one more Vice Chairman of the Ho Chi Minh City People's Committee to focus on specialized expertise, advise and closely monitor the implementation of Resolution 98 of the National Assembly.
