The implementation of two-level local government model in Vietnam: Results and tasks

Abstract

The conclusions of the Politburo, the Secretariat, and the Resolutions of the National Assembly and the National Assembly Standing Committee have opened a major direction for renovation in the organization and operation of local governments according to the two-level local government model from July 1, 2025. After the first month of implementation, the results achieved are enormous, demonstrating the wisdom, correctness, and timeliness of our Party and State. However, there are still a number of issues that need to be further resolved to ensure the two-level local government model operates smoothly and effectively, especially at the grassroots level, which must proactively grasp and manage the socio-economy, national defense, and security.
