The achieved results serve as an important premise, generating motivation for all levels, sectors, and localities to continue promoting a spirit of responsibility, proactiveness, and decisiveness in task execution—capitalizing on opportunities, resolving difficulties, and striving for breakthroughs to complete 2026 socio-economic development targets.

Regarding key tasks for the final months of 2026, the Vice Chairman requested departments, sectors, and the 36 communes and wards of the former Phu Tho area to concentrate on resolving remaining backlog tasks and proactively removing difficulties and bottlenecks right from the grassroots level.

Departments and sectors must promote their role in guiding and supporting the commune level, strengthening close monitoring of local areas, and coordinating to promptly handle arising issues—especially in land management, site clearance, planning, and investment project deployment. Issues exceeding authority must be synthesized and reported to the province for timely guidance and resolution.

Regarding public investment capital disbursement, he requested the Phu Tho Area Project Management Board and localities to decisively deploy solutions to accelerate project execution progress and disburse assigned capital sources, including extended capital sources.

Units must clearly identify causes behind delayed progress and the responsibilities of organizations and individuals—especially heads of agencies—focusing on overcoming limitations to ensure disbursement progress and contributing to driving the province’s economic growth.

In education and healthcare, departments, sectors, and localities must effectively execute the stabilization of school and class scales post-reorganization; step up propaganda and mobilization of citizens, accelerate the deployment of the universal health checkup program, and promptly handle obstacles arising during execution.

The Vice Chairman requested agencies, units, and localities to review execution results for assigned targets and tasks; clearly defining solutions, schedules, and implementation responsibilities during the remainder of 2026.

Concurrently, strengthen inspections and urging, linking the responsibility of leaders with task execution outcomes; promoting a spirit of proactiveness and close coordination—determined to fulfill 2026 socio-economic development targets and laying foundations for the province’s next development phase.
