Quang Ninh tops country’s public administrative reform index

Quang Ninh again affirmed the top place in the Public Administrative Reform (PAR) Index ranking in 2023 and the Satisfaction Index of Public Administration Services (SIPAS) in 2023.

Accordingly, Quang Ninh led the PAR ranking for six times since 2012, with the latest score being 92.18 per cent.

The average index of ministries and ministerial-level agencies was 84.38 per cent, up 0.33 per cent from 2022. Ten ministries recorded higher PAR indexes compared to 2022, and seven saw an index decrease.

The PAR Index is an annual report to assess the implementation of administrative reforms in all ministries, sectors, and localities in Vietnam. It is part of the Government’s commitment to build a democratic, clean, strong, professional, modernised, effective, and efficient administration embedded with the rule-of-law principles under the Party’s leadership and to develop a team of civil servants and public officials who are appropriately qualified to meet the demand of the nation’s course of development.

For the SIPAS, Quang Ninh scored a rate of 90,61%, maintaining the top position for five consecutive years.

The national average SIPAS score for 2023 climbed to 82.66%, marking a significant 2.58% increase from 2022's results. This upward trend demonstrates the steady progress made in enhancing the efficiency and responsiveness of government services nationwide.
