Dong Nai Provincial People's Council and Bien Hoa Municipal People’s Council Deputies Meet with Voters in Buu Long and Quyet Thang Wards

Dong Nai Provincial People's Council and Bien Hoa Municipal People's Council deputies meet with voters in Buu Long and Quyet Thang wards

At the meetings, representative for Dong Nai People's Council (8th term) Dinh Quoc Thai read a brief report on the first session of Dong Nai People’s Council and made a summary of socio-economic situation, security, and national defense in the first half of 2011 and of directions and tasks in the second half of 2011.

Despite such issues as high inflation and the global economy’s changes, Dong Nai keeps maintaining a pretty high growth rate.

In the first half of 2011, GDP growth rate was 3.2 percent, exports increased greatly, social security was maintained, and national security was preserved.

However, there remained weaknesses such as high interest rates and rising prices of raw materials, which exerted a bad impact on companies’ production and business activities; fluctuations in prices of commodities, which made people’s life harder and  harder; traffic accidents; infrastructure in rural areas fail to meet economic development.

In the second half of 2011, Dong Nai will be determined to sustain its growth rate and implement social security policies effectively according to the targets set in Dong Nai Party Committee and People’s Council’s resolutions.

Voters are giving their opinions

Voters in Buu Long and Quyet Thang wards expressed their excitement about the province’s achievements and believed that newly-elected deputies with a “Young but talented age” spirit would continue developing their creativity and being active in taking leadership, and giving directions with the aim of making Dong Nai a prosperous and strong province.

Through meetings, many voters gave opinions on pressing issues in recent times: suspended planning, deteriorated road links and urban infrastructure, and serious environmental pollution in rainy season, which affects people’s lives.

Voters asked that densely-populated wards be divided into smaller one separate for better management and that People’s Council and People’s Committee take urgent measures to deal with this issue.

Particularly, voters asked to accelerate the implementation progress of planned projects and to publicly announce sites and time for the project to be carried out so that people will feel secure to produce and stabilize their lives.

Also, voters suggested that deputies put public concerns on People’s Council’s next agenda and make plans for dealing with existed problems in the previous term.
