Hai Duong - On April 22, the Standing Committee of the Hai Duong Provincial Party Committee directed the renaming of new communes and wards associated with the place names, history, culture, and traditions of the localities.

Accordingly, to ensure the progress of implementing the tasks as required, the Standing Committee of the Hai Duong Provincial Party Committee assigned members of the Provincial Party Committee Standing Committee in charge of the Party Committees of districts, towns and cities to directly participate with the Standing Committees of district Party Committees, town Party Committees and city Party Committees in researching and selecting the names of commune-level administrative units after the arrangement associated with long-standing and typical places, in accordance with traditional, historical and cultural factors of the locality and supported by local people.

Secretaries of district Party committees, city Party committees and town Party committees are responsible to the Provincial Party Committee Standing Committee for proposing the selection of names for commune-level administrative units after the arrangement in the area, reporting to the Provincial Party Committee Standing Committee, ensuring progress as required.

In Cam Pha city, 5 commune-level administrative units will be merged in their original state, including: Cam Trung ward, Cam Thanh ward, Cam Tay ward, Cam Binh ward and Cam Dong ward to form a new ward named Cam Pha.
