Echoing the view, Chairwoman of the People’s Council Nguyen Thi Quyet Tam said a focus of the three standing boards’ coordination would be resolution implementation.
Addressing the event, Politburo member and Secretary of the municipal Party Committee Nguyen Thien Nhan recognised the synchronous coordination among the standing boards in resolution implementation.
Regarding the planned increase of local government workers’ salaries, a right HCM City has under the special mechanisms and policies, he said the salary hike will be made in 2018, based on people and businesses’ feedback.
He asked the municipal Vietnam Fatherland Front Committee to assess people and businesses’ satisfaction of public workers’ performance. Those evaluations will be a basis for authorities to decide an appropriate salary bump.
