Tan An Commune was established from the merger of the former Tan An and Vinh Tan communes. Before the merger, both Party Committees had performed well in Party building, government building, and strengthening socio-political organizations. Each year, both surpassed the targets for admitting new Party members assigned by higher levels.

During the term, budget management was implemented strictly, with close attention paid to state budget revenue. The total budget revenue of the two communes before the merger reached over VND 256 billion, exceeding the assigned target by 138%. The commune’s economy also experienced a strong shift from agriculture to industry and services.

In the 2025-2030 term, the Tan An Commune Party Committee will continue focusing on building a clean, strong Party and political system as a central task. The goal is to develop a contingent of cadres and Party members who are qualified, virtuous, courageous, innovative, and willing to contribute. The commune will also further streamline and perfect organizational models, enhance the quality, efficiency, and effectiveness of local government operations under the new administrative model, and build a professional, law-based, modern, transparent, and service-oriented state administration.

As for socio-economic development, the Party Committee has set the course to maintain strong economic growth, restructure the economy toward increasing the share of industry, commerce, and services, while developing high-tech and organic agriculture tied to tourism and sustainable markets. The commune will mobilize and effectively use resources to invest in completing socio-economic infrastructure, especially regional link roads and rural transport routes.

In his directive speech, Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, Head of the Provincial Party Committee’s Organization Commission, and Secretary of the Party Committee of the Provincial Party Agencies Thai Bao noted that despite many challenges in the past term, the Party Committees of both former Tan An and Vinh Tan communes, now united as the Party Committee of Tan An commune, had upheld their revolutionary tradition, demonstrated unity, and overcome difficulties to achieve significant and comprehensive results.

In his strategic guidance for the new term, Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee Thai Bao emphasized the need for the communal Party Committee to strengthen solidarity and unity within the Party. He urged the communal Party Committee to thoroughly grasp and consistently implement the directive of Party General Secretary To Lam on “Solidarity – the truth of all times,” stressing that maintaining internal unity is a vital principle and top priority in Party building.

He also requested that the communal Party Committee continue to lead, direct, and operate efficiently local government apparatus, Party organizations, the Vietnam Fatherland Front, and socio-political organizations under the two-tier local government model, ensuring smooth, synchronized, stable, and effective operations. Furthermore, Tan An needs to foster a strong spirit of innovation and creativity, build a democratic, upright, professional, and efficient working environment, and adopt digital transformation in workplace to better serve citizens and businesses.

Regarding socio-economic development, Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee Thai Bao stressed that the Party Committee must accurately assess both advantages and challenges in the new context. With a favorable geographic location and great potential for high-tech and organic agriculture, combined with commercial, service, handicraft, and tourism development, Tan An also holds promising prospects for attracting investment into industrial zones and clusters, especially with the future construction of the Ho Chi Minh City’s Ring Road 4 and the DT768B inter-regional connection road. Thus, the commune should restructure its spatial layout to leverage its advantages, focusing on reviewing and developing high-quality socio-economic and infrastructure plans aligned with the province’s master plan.

During development, Bao reminded the communal Party Committee to pay close attention to social welfare, sustainable poverty reduction, public healthcare, cultural and educational development, as well as ensuring public security, social order, and fulfilling local military and defense tasks.

On this occasion, Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee Thai Bao presented a banner from the Provincial Party Committee’s Executive Committee to the 1st Congress of the Tan An commune Party Committee, 2025-2030 term, with the inscription: “Solidarity – democracy – discipline – innovation – development; building the Party Committee of Tan An commune toward green and sustainable growth.”
