At the conference, Chairman of Lam Dong Provincial People's Committee Tran Hong Thai said that the work of collecting voters' opinions was organized methodically, following the correct procedures, ensuring objectivity, transparency and receiving high consensus from the people. In particular, the naming of new administrative units was carried out flexibly and creatively, associated with the historical and cultural sites typical of each locality, typically the wards in Da Lat City.
The results of the poll showed that the majority of voters agreed with both proposals. The consensus rate exceeded the 50% threshold as prescribed; no commune-level administrative unit had to organize a second poll. The highest rate was 100%, the lowest was 81.91%.
On that basis, the conference voted and unanimously approved the Project on rearranging commune-level administrative units of the province. After the rearrangement, the whole province has 51 commune-level administrative units (including 9 wards and 42 communes), a reduction of 86 units, equivalent to 62.77%.
Regarding the Project on the arrangement of provincial administrative units, the conference agreed on the policy of merging the entire natural area and population size of three provinces: Lam Dong (9,781.20km², 1,595,597 people), Binh Thuan (7,942.60km², 1,531,253 people), Dak Nong (6,509.27km², 746,149 people) to establish a new province - named Lam Dong province, directly under the Central Government. The administrative center is located in Da Lat city, Lam Dong province today.
Concluding the conference, Acting Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee Nguyen Thai Hoc emphasized that the consolidation of provinces and the arrangement of commune-level administrative units is a major policy with strategic significance in streamlining the apparatus and improving the effectiveness and efficiency of state management. Acting Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee Nguyen Thai Hoc affirmed that the Lam Dong Provincial Party Committee will continue to give strong and close direction in the next steps of implementation in accordance with the Central Government's roadmap, with the highest determination, despite the many difficulties and challenges ahead.
