The ward also aims to continue improving its urban planning, promoting urban development and renovation, and creating new spaces to drive high-value growth.
Enhancing digital transformation, focusing on cultural development, fostering innovation, ensuring social welfare, and maintaining political security and social order are key priorities.
Building Bình Hưng Hòa into a green, high-quality, civilized, modern, and compassionate ward will contribute positively to Ho Chi Minh City’s development.
Among the targets set for the 2025 – 2030 period, the ward aims to achieve annual budget revenue goals and increase total social investment by 5% by 2030 compared to the beginning of the term.
The ward also strives to build at least five schools and have at least one ward meet national standards. In urban management, the goal is to promptly handle 100% of violations, reduce annual construction order violations, and detect, address, and rectify 100% of land-related violations.
Early Formation of a New Development Space for Bình Hưng Hòa
In his directive speech at the congress, the Standing Deputy Secretary of the Ho Chi Minh City Party Committee praised the Bình Hưng Hòa Ward Party Committee and authorities for quickly stabilizing operations, reorganizing the political system, and ensuring smooth coordination.
The officials and civil servants demonstrated responsibility and efficiency, avoiding disruptions. The ward promptly issued regulations, programs, and plans post-merger.
Given new tasks, the ward, as the closest administrative level to the people, must adhere to central and city directives, innovate management thinking, and adopt a long-term vision.
