On the afternoon of July 10, the Ba Ria - Vung Tau Industrial Parks Management Board coordinated with the People's Committees of Tan Phuoc and Tan Hai wards (HCMC) and Thanh Binh - Phu My Joint Stock Company (investor of Phu My 3 Industrial Park) to organize a conference to deploy a number of activities of the two-level local government.
Speaking at the conference, Mr. Vo Thanh Phong, Head of the Ba Ria - Vung Tau Industrial Park Management Board, stated that the operation of a two-level local government aims to build a government closer to the people and businesses to serve them better. The reduction of focal points helps the appraisal and licensing process to be faster, helping businesses reduce the time spent working with multiple levels.
According to the general policy, the Ba Ria - Vung Tau Industrial Park Management Board will merge with two equivalent units of Ho Chi Minh City and Binh Duong , becoming the state management agency in the export processing zones and industrial parks in the new mega-urban area with a planned scale of 105 industrial parks, total area of nearly 50,000 hectares. Of which, 59 industrial parks have been operating (area of more than 23,000 hectares) with nearly 5,530 projects with a total registered investment capital of about 75 billion USD and creating jobs for nearly 840,000 workers.
Mr. Phong also said that there are concerns about the impact of geographical distance on administrative procedures. However, most investment procedures in industrial parks are currently processed online, centrally, and through a single window.
State management agencies will also be located in suitable locations, ready to best serve investors and businesses. It is estimated that, in the immediate future, the time to carry out administrative procedures will be reduced by 30% compared to before.
At the conference, representatives of Thanh Binh - Phu My Joint Stock Company informed secondary investors in Phu My 3 Industrial Park about the operation of the 2-level local government model and the simplification of administrative procedures, especially investment and construction procedures in the industrial park.
Accordingly, from July 1, 2025, many new regulations on decentralization and delegation of authority will officially take effect. More specifically, about 130 tasks will be reassigned, of which nearly 100 tasks will be transferred from districts to communes, such as construction licensing, construction order management, project acceptance, etc. In addition, many other tasks will be decentralized to grassroots authorities, closest to the people and businesses.
Many administrative procedures have been reduced and simplified, helping to shorten processing time and increase efficiency in serving people and businesses. In the field of urban and rural planning, commune-level authorities are empowered to establish, appraise and approve small-scale plans, while the provincial level proactively handles inter-commune planning and large projects.
A representative of Thanh Binh - Phu My Company stated that the 2-level local government model not only streamlines the apparatus but also creates a flexible and suitable legal foundation, creating the best conditions for people, businesses in general, and investors in industrial parks in particular.
Also at the conference, representatives of the Ba Ria - Vung Tau Industrial Park Management Board, the People's Committees of Tan Phuoc and Phuoc Hai wards, infrastructure investors and industrial park infrastructure investors exchanged and informed about some specific contents related to the activities of the two-level government and administrative procedures related to investment and construction in industrial parks.
