The Vietnamese government plans to adjust public sector salaries, pensions, and benefits if economic conditions improve in 2025, according to a newly issued resolution.

The Government Steering Committee has proposed significant adjustments to the roles of the Ministry of Public Security and other ministries to enhance efficiency and streamline governance.

The Vietnamese government has announced an ambitious restructuring plan that will eliminate 13 general departments, 518 departments, and 218 divisions across ministries, reducing redundancy and enhancing efficiency.

Vietnam’s government has proposed restructuring its ministries and agencies, reducing the total to 14 ministries, 3 ministry-level agencies, and 5 government-affiliated entities, with new names reflecting their revised roles.

The Vietnamese government is set to reduce its structure to 22 entities, cutting five ministries and three government-affiliated agencies in a bid to streamline governance and improve efficiency.

The Ministry of Home Affairs has proposed transferring MobiFone and driver’s license issuance responsibilities to the Ministry of Public Security as part of efforts to streamline state management.

In a significant move toward administrative reform, many senior officials in Vietnam have chosen early retirement to facilitate restructuring and create opportunities for younger leaders.
