Working scene.

According to reports from communes, during the initial implementation period, the two-level local government organization model has brought about positive effects in administration and management, shortened the time for handling administrative procedures, strengthened people's supervision and improved service quality.

The arrangement and deployment of staff, civil servants and public employees were implemented in accordance with regulations, initially achieving positive results, contributing to improving the efficiency of the agency's operations.
