Binh Phuoc : Effectively utilizing administrative infrastructure after merger
Binh Phuoc province is collecting public opinions on the project to reorganize commune-level administrative units, which is expected to reduce from 111 to 42 communes and wards. Symbolic places such as Dong Xoai, Bom Bo, Phuoc Long, Binh Long, Bu Dang... will be retained to name the new administrative units after the merger.
Accordingly, 4 communes including Bu Gia Map, Dak O, Phu Nghia (Bu Gia Map district) and Dang Ha (Bu Dang district) are eligible to maintain the status quo. The locality also plans to establish a new Binh Phuoc ward on the basis of merging 6 commune-level administrative units of Dong Xoai city.
According to the headquarters rearrangement plan, Binh Phuoc will use 11 existing district-level administrative centers to serve as headquarters of the People's Committees of newly formed communes and wards after the rearrangement. Along with that, 11 district-level medical centers will be converted into commune health stations in central areas.

As planned, Dong Xoai City Administrative Center will become the headquarters of Binh Phuoc Ward; Binh Long Town Administrative Center will become the headquarters of Binh Long Commune; Loc Ninh District Administrative Center will become the headquarters of Loc Ninh Commune...
Through review, the province currently has 222 commune-level headquarters, while after the rearrangement, only 116 headquarters (including 58 People's Committees and 58 health stations) are needed, resulting in 106 redundant headquarters. In addition, due to utilizing district-level headquarters as commune headquarters, the province determined that there were 22 more redundant headquarters, bringing the total to 128 headquarters that were no longer needed.
Binh Phuoc has developed a plan to handle redundant headquarters in the 2026-2030 period, with priority given to converting them into schools, medical facilities, cultural and sports facilities or community service facilities. Facilities that cannot be converted will be reclaimed or handled according to legal regulations to avoid wasting public assets.

At the conference, Director of the Department of Home Affairs Nguyen Thi Thu Hien presented the report of the Provincial Party Committee on the draft Project on rearranging and reorganizing commune-level administrative units in the area. Accordingly, Tay Ninh province currently has 94 commune-level administrative units, including 17 wards, 6 towns and 71 communes (including 20 border communes), distributed in 9 district-level administrative units.
Based on the criteria and principles of the National Assembly Standing Committee and the Central Government's orientation in Resolution No. 76/2025/UBTVQH15, the Project develops an arrangement plan associated with the characteristics of border areas, urban development and socio-economic development capabilities.
According to the draft, after the reorganization, the whole province will have 36 commune-level administrative units, including 10 wards and 26 communes, including 11 border communes (after the conference agreed to reduce 1 more border commune). Thus, Tay Ninh will reduce 58 units, equivalent to 61.7%, in line with the Central Government's direction on streamlining the administrative apparatus.
Tay Ninh Provincial Party Secretary Nguyen Manh Hung emphasized: "The project is carefully and scientifically built, closely following the Central's standards and criteria, while ensuring development space, urbanization rate, as well as national defense and security requirements in the area."
The Provincial Party Executive Committee requested the Provincial People's Committee to continue completing the draft Project and collect public opinions before submitting it to competent authorities according to the roadmap.

In addition, the conference also agreed on the plan to organize party congresses at all levels for the 2025-2030 term, towards the 14th National Party Congress, based on Directive No. 45-CT/TW dated April 14, 2025 of the Politburo. The content of the plan inherits some points from Plan No. 224-KH/TU in 2024 to ensure that it is consistent with the practical situation of the locality.
