The meeting, organized by the ward’s People’s Council and People’s Committee, brought together leaders of the local Party Committee, People’s Council, People’s Committee and Vietnam Fatherland Front, along with representatives from departments, mass organizations, schools and more than 100 youth union members, young people and students.
Children raised issues including traffic safety on routes to school, sidewalk encroachment and street vending near school gates, food safety, limited recreational facilities and protection from harmful online content.
Youth union members and young people focused on support for entrepreneurship and career development, access to preferential loans, vocational training, job creation, digital transformation, community cultural activities, and the maintenance of public order and security.
Ward leaders responded directly to issues within their authority and acknowledged proposals requiring further review. Relevant departments will coordinate with other agencies to study and propose solutions in the near future, officials said.
On the occasion, the People’s Council and People’s Committee presented 10 savings books worth 1 million VND each (about $42) to students from disadvantaged backgrounds. Another 10 gifts were given to resilient young people, each including 500,000 VND (about $21) and a helmet, to encourage their studies and personal development.
Officials said the dialogue provided a democratic and practical forum to enhance youth and children’s participation in local affairs, while strengthening cooperation between authorities and the younger generation.
