Government determines to sharpen up their staff Deputy Minister of Interior, Tran Anh Tuan, talked in an interview about government's effort to improve the quality of their staff by cutting about 100,000 state officers.
According to the new draft circular that was built by the Ministry of Interior, 100,000 state officers will be dismissed from 2014 to 2020. VND8 trillion (USD381 million) will be used for paying pensions and allowances for these officers. Can you give more detail about the 100,000 state officers that will be dismissed? This circular is one of many solutions that aim to improve the quality of our staff. We will replace officers who fail to do their jobs with more capable ones to serve the people. 100,000 is not the goal. According to the circular, officers who fail to meet requirements will be asked to retire early and the estimated number is 100,000. Currently, we have sent the circular to agencies at all levels and posted it on our web portal to gather public opinions. Public is worried about possible wrongdoings when this circular goes into effects, such as giving bribes to keep positions or supervisors purposely keep someone in positions out of respect or fear, what do you think about this issue? Concerns like this is normal. If we have a lax management and supervision works then it will lead to wrongdoings. That's why we must make responsibilities of state agencies, especially their leaders, to be our focal point. In order to strengthen our staff, officials who supervise and evaluate the work of their co-workers must be objective and impartial. It's the only way we can have the most exact list of incapable officers and I think it will also give encouragement to other officers. However, many people are still worried about the bad results from this circular. Can you tell more about the implementation process? This circular was built by the collaboration between the Ministry of Interior, Ministry of Justice, the Government Office and other relevant agencies. We have researched on its impacts on society and our offices. Then before the government approve and announce the circular, a conference will be held to popularise the rules and guild agencies on related issues. One of the most important work is public inspection and supervision to find out any wrongdoings during the implementation process. If everything is strictly followed then this will be one of the most positive circular to improve government workforce. |
