Da Nang plans to ask its People's Council for a new resolution on special financial mechanisms to attract talent, replacing Resolution 15/2025/NQ-HĐND, Báo Đà Nẵng reported on October 23. People's Committee Vice Chairwoman Nguyễn Thị Anh Thi chaired a meeting that morning on carrying out Party Central Committee Conclusion No. 105-KL/TW, dated October 15, on high-quality public-sector human resources.

The report says the proposed resolution should add criteria for spotting talent on key projects, policies for science and technology talent tied to major local problems, and self-decision powers where regulations allow. The Department of Home Affairs will lead the drafting, and the Department of Finance will propose pay packages above standard levels for top talent.

So far under the 2025 resolution, the city has approved pay for one PhD-holding civil servant recruited from a ministry and a labour contract paying VND 100 million a month for one post at the International Financial Center's executive office. The article gives no date, budget or head-count for the new resolution.

Why it matters: Any new pay and benefit rules will shape how Da Nang competes for specialists, including for its financial centre.
