Ho Chi Minh City Honors Non-Specialized Grassroots Workers

The Dat Do commune in Ho Chi Minh City held a special event to honor individuals working in non-specialized grassroots roles, recognizing their vital contributions to the community. The gathering celebrated those who serve as the closest link between local authorities and residents.

“

Throughout the past time, with a sense of responsibility, dedication, and attachment to the grassroots, non-specialized workers at the hamlet level have made important contributions to political stability, socio-economic development, national defense and security, and building cultural life in residential areas.

Bà Đỗ Thị Hồng, Secretary of the Party Committee and Chairwoman of the Commune People's Council, expressed deep gratitude for the "silent contributions" of these grassroots workers. She highlighted their crucial role in maintaining political stability, fostering socio-economic development, and preserving security and cultural life within the residential areas.

“

The people participating in hamlet activities and the heads and deputy heads of residential groups under the hamlet are the first to bring the policies of the Party and the State to the people; they are the ones who directly listen to the thoughts and aspirations of the people; participate in mediating conflicts in the community; mobilize each household to implement emulation movements, build new rural areas, protect the environment, maintain security and order, and care for policy beneficiaries and people with difficult circumstances.

These dedicated individuals are the first to communicate Party and State policies to the public. They also actively listen to citizens' aspirations, mediate community disputes, mobilize residents for emulation movements, promote new rural development, protect the environment, maintain public order, and support vulnerable populations.

“

Many people have been attached to this job for 10 years, 20 years, even dedicating nearly their entire lives to work in residential areas. What keeps them here is not the allowance policies, but the sense of responsibility, love for their homeland, and the trust of the people.

Some workers have served for 10, 20 years, or even nearly their entire lives. Bà Hồng emphasized that their commitment stems from a strong sense of responsibility, love for their homeland, and the trust placed in them by the people, rather than financial incentives. The event also featured testimonials from individuals who, despite no longer holding official positions, remain dedicated to supporting the local community.

“

This is a correct policy of the Party and the State to continue streamlining the organizational apparatus and improve the effectiveness and efficiency of the grassroots government.
