social, national defense - security protection, diplomacy, training and use of human resources, protection, preservation and use of natural resources natural, environmental and other natural resources in the locality, directing and inspecting the organization and implementation of strategic plans for development of districts, towns and cities in their management areas, implementing resolutions of Provincial People’s Council meetings The organization and operation of provincial apparatus agencies affect the efficiency and effectiveness of local management As a result of administrative reforms, the provincial apparatus has been improved However, it still has a number of shortcomings as follows: - The regulation of the organization and operation of the provincial apparatus is not really complete Despite of a new Constitution and a local administrative law promulgated in 2015, it still lacks a number of relevant regulations - The organizational structure of the apparatus is still cumbersome, and the arrangement of the apparatus is not methodical The Lao PDR has 16 departments and department-level agencies - The decentralization, and separation of managerialpower between the central and local authorities is still not clearly demarcatedfrom each other in many contents In recent years, Lao PDR has paid attention to the decentralization and separation of powers from the government to the local government In reality, however, there are still many problems with the decentralization and separation of power between the central and local governments In some contents, the decentralization and separation of powers are not clear that causesoverlaps or gapsbetween the central and local governments during the course of operation - The decentralization and power separation between the central and local governmentare still not clearly demarcated In recent years, Completing the institution on organization of the state administrative apparatus at the provincial level with the promulgation of the Government's Decree stipulating the organization of specialized agencies under the People's Committees of provinces and centrally-governedcities; Government’s Decree onregulating the establishment, reorganization and dissolution of administrative organizations; Decision of the Prime Minister on civil service culture Decentralization shall be strongly conducted toward local government To consolidate provincial department-level agencies;the current 16 departments and agencies should be adjusted, reorganized and consolidatedinto 13 departments and department-equivalent agencies To renovate the working style of province-level state administrative organizations with the simplification of administrative procedures, and at the same time strengthening disciplines and regulations To carry out capacity building of cadres and civil servants of province-level state administrative apparatus To ensure working conditions and strengthen application of information technology in consulting, research, administration and service 27 18 administrative units The province-level state administrative agency is constituted of16 departments and department- equivalentagencies Fifth, the organization of state administrative apparatus at the provincial level has advantages such as there isdistinction between the state administrative apparatus at the provincial level and at the district and village levels; specialized agencies promptly receive direction from specialized ministries; the working mechanism of the province-level state administrative apparatus organization is simpler and more decisive However, the organization of the province-level stateadministrative apparatus of Lao PDR is not really streamlined The reason is that the functions, tasks and powers of the state administrative agencies at the provincial level areoverlapped and have not been closely and clearly defined; the working style of the province-level state administrative apparatus is not really methodical; decentralization between central and local is limited; working capacity of the contingent of cadres and civil servants of provincelevel state administrative agencies is still limited; facilities and technical equipment are still poor and backward Sixth, the improvement of the state administrative apparatus shall be in harmony with the overall reform of the state administrative apparatus and the renovation of the political system, combining the completion of the state administrative apparatus with economic reform Seventh, in order to improve the organization of the provincelevel state administrative apparatus of Lao PDR, the following solutions should be implemented: 26 Lao PDR has paid attention to the decentralization and separation of powers from the central government to local government However, in reality, there are still many problems in the process In some content, the decentralization and decentralization of powers are not clear, leading to overlapping or gaps in the operation between the central and local governments - Nowadays the education level of Lao PDR is not high, thatresults in limited qualifications and capacity of officials in general and officials and of the provincial government in particular Besides, the appointment anddesignationof officials is not really reasonable Therefore, the quality and working efficiency of the staff of public administrative agencies are not high - The Lao PDR is still a poor and low-income country, so it lacks conditions for investment in modern infrastructure, equipment and working facilities This significantly affects the quality and efficiency of public service performance of public servants in general, including those working inprovincial level agencies in particular International integration, which is becoming increasingly extensive, requires a synchronous and compact state administrative apparatus at provincial level to meet the requirements of innovation and integration In the process of developing the country, the organization of state administrative has implemented many changes to respond tofactualdemands, especially when conducting the renovation and international integration Because Lao PDR carries out the innovation while still researching and learning, the organization and operation of the state administrative apparatus are still inadequate Regarding the theoretical issue, in Lao PDR, there are many studies on the issue of organization of state apparatus under different aspects and levels However, the number of methodical studies on the organization of the local state administrative apparatus in general and the province-level state administrative apparatus in particularis very limited Particularly regarding the organization of province-level government, there are no studies conducted with public management approaches Accordingly, the theoretical basis for the organization and operation of the local state administrative apparatus has not been completed Therefore, the author chooses the topic "Organization of the province-level state administrative apparatus of Lao People's Democratic Republic" for theirdoctoral dissertation in public management Research purpose and missions 2.1 Research purposes Based on the basis of theory, the dissertationanalyzes proposes the views and solutions to perfect the organization of the provincelevel state administrative apparatus of Lao PDR in accordance with the practical conditions of the said country 2.2 Research mission - Research and systematize relevant studies, thereby pointing out the contents and results that the studies have studied as well as pointing out the gaps - Develop a theoretical framework for the organization of the state administrative apparatus at the provincial level - Analyze and evaluate the actual situation of the organizational structure of the province-level state administrative apparatus of Lao PDR, pointing out the achievements, the limitations and the causes of the limitations, as a basis for proposing solutions - Propose number of solutions to improve the organization of the province-level state administrative apparatus of Lao PDR Strengthen the application of information technology in consulting, research, administration and service Build e-government in order to enhance connectivity, integration, sharing and reuse of information, enhance monitoring capacity, limit duplication, save costs and deployment time of state agencies; gradually improve flexibility when building and deploying information system components according to actual conditions CONCLUDE Through the above contents, it can be seen that the dissertation has achieved some main research results as follows: First, the dissertation has summarized relevantstudies The organizational structure and operational methods of the provincelevel state administrative agency is a knowledgegap for the dissertation to explore Second, the dissertation has systematized the general theoretical issues about the province-level state administrative apparatus and the organization of the state administrative apparatus at the provincial level The organization of the state administrative apparatus at the provincial level has a number of unique characteristics and principles and is influenced by many different factors Third, on the basis of studying the organization of the province-level state administrative apparatus of Vietnam, the dissertation draws reference values for Lao PDR Fourth, the state administrative apparatus of Lao PDR is organized in a hierarchical model At the provincial level, there are 25 Assessment shall be innovated Evaluation of cadres and civil servants must be based on certain standards and principles Evaluation process shall be conducted constructively, adhering to the principle of democratic centralism The content of the assessment must cover both aspects of ethical qualities and work capacity The conclusion of the assessment must be public and democratic in the spirit of solidarity, comradeship and co-workers It is necessary to offerincentives and disciplines timely The incentive must be given objectively and fairly to maintain accuracy and to create anself-improvementmovement among each cadre and civil servant In addition to commendation Discipline must be applied to cadres and civil servants who are lazy, fail to perform assigned tasks or fail to complete assigned tasks; breach of discipline regulations 4.2.6 Modernize the facilities of the organization ofprovincelevel state administrative apparatus Ensure working conditions (offices, equipment) in accordance with the State's regulations, andtimely replacement of old and damaged equipment when required Timely amend and supplement unreasonable regulations on financial and public asset management Simultaneously, study and expand the implementation of the contracting mechanism for a number of financial regimes to ensure flexibility and promote the initiative of serviceagencies Increase the use of contract work, including hiring experts The allocation of funds to the units should be clearly defined, avoiding overlap in payment and settlement 24 Subject and scope of research -

review and arrange the internal organizational structure of departments, branches and agencies under governors and mayors to ensure streamlined, effective and efficient operation 16 departments and department-level agencies shall adjust, rearrange and consolidate their personnel in order to reduce focal province-level state administrative apparatus of Lao PDR, as well as for teaching and research in the field of administrative science, which is alsobeneficial to graduate students, graduate students and individuals and organizations interested in researching the organizational structure of the state administrative apparatus at the provincial level Structure of dissertation In addition to the introduction, conclusion, and list of references, the content of the dissertation consists of chapters points and be able to manage multi-sectors and fields Several Chapter departments shall be merged to reduce the number of departments LITERATURE REVIEW 1.1 Results of the previous relatedstudies Relevant studies have focused on the following First, these studies have a general consensus in affirming the position and role of the state administrative apparatus in the state apparatus Second, improving the organization of the state administrative apparatus is an important concern in the process of organization and operation of state agencies Third, a number of studies on the organization of the state apparatus have built a theoretical basis and properly assessed the actual situation of the organization of the state apparatus Fourth, some studies on local government have mentioned the organizational reform of the state administrative apparatus Fifth, studies on the organization of state apparatus in order to build a rule-of-law state have provided the author with models of state administrative organization for reference and agencies from 16 to 13 4.2.4 Renovating the working style of province-level state administrative organizations In order to renovate the working style of province-level state administrative organizations, it is necessary to pay attention to the following contents: Tasks of cadres and civil servants of provincelevel state administrative organizations are concretized according to their working positions For heads of the agency, strengthen accountability in directing and administering the agency's tasks Province-level state administrative organizations need to maintain close, rhythmic and regular coordination to take the initiative in advising and proposing to leaders effectively Regarding the renovation ofworking methods of province-level state administrative organizations, it is necessary to implement a number of measures: simplify administrative procedures, strengthen discipline and administrative discipline for province-level state administrative organizations 22 1.2 Orientation of study The overview of the relevant studies shows that the studies on the organization of the apparatus from the perspective of public management are still limited Particularly,the organization of the province-level state administrative apparatus of Lao PDR has not been studied intensively and systematically Therefore, the dissertation needs to continue to study the organization of the local state administrative apparatus in the following contents First, the organization of the province-level state administrative apparatus of Lao PDR is hierarchical However, there are organizationswhich are jointly managed by two agencies Those organizations are required to be studied Second, the organizational structure and operation of the local government at the provincial level (including the province-level People's Council) and the relationship between the People's Council and the governor or mayor is a space for the dissertation to research Third,the system of viewpoints and solutions to improve the organization of the province-level state administrative apparatus of Lao PDR have not yet been given in a complete and comprehensive manner; Especially, there are no works mentioning the streamlining of these agencies in order to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of state administrative management in the locality decentralization of the organization of apparatus for the local government; payroll management is always associated with the organization of apparatus, so decentralizing the organizational apparatus for local governments will be associated with the decentralization of payroll management For the locality, it is necessary to create an open mechanism which empowers initiative Local authorities have the right to consider and decide whether to merge, dissolve, establish or not to establish any departments in accordance with the socio-economic conditions in the locality The Central Government issues only general regulations on the number of deputies; and localities are entitled to make specific arrangements, as long as the authority is not exceeded 4.2.3 Consolidate the organization of the state administrative apparatus at the provincial level It is necessary to continue reviewing and transferring tasks that state agencies not have to carry out to organizations, individuals, businesses or social organizations Province-level state administrative agencies only perform state management over sectors and fields within the province-level territory Autonomy in payroll and finance shall be assigned to eligible units The public-private partnership model in public services shall be implemented Chapter On the basis of functional delineation, it is necessary SCIENTIFIC BASIS FORTHE ORGANIZATION toreorganize the organizational apparatus of province-level state OFPROVINCE-LEVEL STATE ADMINISTRATIVE administrative agencies in order to reduce focal points and APPARATUS 2.1 Definition, Positions, functions, tasks and powers of the province-level state administrative apparatus intermediaries Regarding the arrangement and consolidation of the 21 organization of agencies under the provincial governors and mayors, the direction is to specify a framework on the number and structure municipality; on the establishment, reorganization and dissolution of administrative organizations They are the Government's Decree stipulating the organization of specialized agencies under the People's Committees of provinces and centrally-governed cities;Government's Decree providing for the establishment, reorganization and dissolution of administrative organizations Besides, in order to organize the province-level state administrative apparatus in a professional manner, it is necessary to supplement regulations on working methods of the organization of the province-level state administrative apparatus; on the coordination between the organization of the province-level state administrative apparatus and other organizations and agencies in the political system; and, on the integrity of the cadres and civil servants Accordingly, the Prime Minister's Decision on culture of civil service shall be issued 4.2.2 Promote decentralization and separation of powers between central state administrative agencies and local state administrative agencies The decentralization and separation of powers between central state administrative agencies and local state administrative agencies must be based on certain principles: the levelwhich performs management effectively shall be assigned; the Government agrees that centralized state management in line organization shall be performed in a number of sectors such as defense - security, diplomacy, taxation, treasury, customs and banking; ensuring the principle that isregarding atask in an area, only one agency or organization is assigned to assume the prime responsibility for 2.1.1 The definition of the province-level state administrative apparatus The organization of province-level state administrative apparatus is understood as the arrangement and operational methods of the units or parts constituting the state administrative agency of a province (or a province-equivalent) to ensure the performance of general tasks of state administrative managementwithin the territory of the province (or the province-equivalent) 2.1.2 Positions, functions, tasks and powers of the provincelevel state administrative apparatus Province-level state administrative agencies are the executive bodies of local state power agencies, performing local state administrative management functions and tasks, and are responsible for closely coordinating with other local state agencies to ensure the effectiveness and efficiency of the local government apparatus 2.2 Characteristics and principles of the organization of the state administrative apparatus at the provincial level 2.2.1 Characteristics of the organization of the state administrative apparatus at the provincial level - The establishment of state administrative apparatus must comply with regulations of the law - The organization of the province-level state administrative apparatus isin compliance with organizational science - The organization of the state administrative apparatus is organized in accordance with the needs of local social management -The organization of state administrative apparatus is organized on a large area of territory - The organization of state administrative apparatus serves political purposes implementation and take main responsibility; implementing the 20 - Organization of the state administrative apparatus is allowed to use state power in its operations 2.2.2 Principles of organization of the state administrative apparatus at the provincial level - Hierarchy - Completeness, unity - Clear delineation of the appropriate management authority for all levels and departments - Clear delineation of the scope of management - Unification between functions and tasks with powers and authority; between authority and responsibility; between tasks, responsibilities and means - Economical and efficient - Citizen participation in governance in a democratic way - Maximize the positivity of people in the organization 2.2.3 Method of organization, operation and decentralization of organization of theprovince-level state administrative apparatus 2.3.1 Method of organization of the province-level state administrative apparatus The mode of organization of the state administrative apparatus is the arrangement of relationships in the functioning of the state administration - the exercise of executive power - Organizational method according to administrative-territorial hierarchies - Organizational method by function Due to differences in politics, history of formation, traditions and customs, etc., the organization of the local state administrative apparatus in different countries in the world are not the same - Hierarchical model (decentralized model) is a management activity with superiors and subordinates 10 - The facilities and technical equipment are still inadequate and backward Chapter VIEWPOINTS AND SOLUTIONS TO PERFECT THE ORGANIZATION OF THE PROVINCE-LEVEL STATE ADMINISTRATIVE APPARATUS OF LAO PDR 4.1.Viewpoints on improving the organization of the province-level state administrative apparatus of Lao PDR - Ensure the leadership of the Lao People's Democratic Party - Ensure state power belongs to the people - Improve the effectiveness and efficiency of state management - It must carry out in sync with the reform of the local political system - It must be appropriate topractical conditions 4.2 Some solutions to improve the organization of the province-level state administrative apparatus of the province in Lao PDR 4.2.1 Perfecting the institution on the organization of the state administrative apparatus at the provincial level Regarding the local government apparatus, it is necessary to continue to legislate and perfect regulations on functions, tasks, powers, and effective coordination mechanisms among organizations and agencies at the same level In which, it is necessary to pay attention to promulgating new regulations on the organization of specialized agencies under the People's Committees of province and 19 - Specialized agencies of province-level state administrative apparatus organizations receive direction from specialized ministries and local authorities - Functions, tasks and powers of province-level state administrative apparatus organizations concentrate on administrative management - The working mechanism of the province-level state administrative apparatus organization is simpler and more decisive 3.3.2 Weaknesses - The organization of the state administrative apparatus at the provincial level is quite cumbersome - Decentralization between central government and local government is still limited - The organization of province-level state administrative apparatus lacks stability; division, separation and mergingoccurfrequently - The organization of province-level state administrative apparatus between mountainous and urban areas has not been distinguished 3.3.3 The cause of the limitations - Functions, tasks and powers of province-level state administrative agenciesare still conflicted and inappropriate - The working style of the state administrative apparatus is not really methodical - The decentralization between central and local governments is still limited - The working capacity of cadres and civil servants of provincelevel state administrative agencies is still limited 18 - Horizontal model (centralized model) According to this model, the local state administrative apparatus organizations have an equal position; all are directly under the direction and administration of the Central Government and are all called local governments, without any dependence on each other - Mixed model It can be formed on the basis of implementing law enforcement in the territory under direct instructions of a Council elected by local people through the implementation of the Council's resolutions while implementing administrative documents of superior state administration This mixed model has both a Council and a local state administrative committee 2.3.2 The method of operationof administrative apparatus organizationin the locality The method of operation of the organization of the state administrative apparatus is the method and means that the organization of the state administrative apparatus applies to perform its functions and tasks Theworking modes are collective working regime, headship regime, specialist regime, and coordination regime 2.3.3 Decentralization of management between the central government and the province-level government, between the provincelevel government and the district-level government Decentralization and separation of powerare understood as theact of clearly defining the true tasks of each level of government, building awareness of each level and encourage them to be proactive and creative in doing the right tasks and in accordance with the law The central-local relationship implies centralization and democracy One of the primary and fundamental tasks of the local government is to organize and ensure the implementation of the Constitution and laws in the province 11 2.4 Factors affecting the organization of the state administrative apparatus at the provincial level 2.4.1 Policies and guidelines of the ruling party The ruling party is the force leading the state and the society, so the ruling party will guide the state and society to operate in the direction that the ruling party desires State administrative agencies perform the function of state administrative management which also means to carry out the political tasks of the ruling party and to implement the guidelines and lines of the ruling party 2.4.2.Management institution and policies Being the basis for building the organizational structure of the state administrative apparatus, institution is the most important factor affecting the organizational structure of the state administrative apparatus in general and the organization of the local state administrative apparatus in particular 2.4.3 Geographical location and natural conditions There are differences in management between urban and rural areas, between deltas and the mountains, and between the mainland and islands In many countries, different administrative apparatuses have been established for provinces and regions which own different natural conditions 4.4 Traditional history and culture An institutional system is only good andvoluntarily adopted when it not only promotes the advantages of traditional valuesbut also eliminates the disadvantages of traditional elements 2.4.5 Socio-economic development The changes in the socio-economic environment forces the state administrative system to adapt to the changes in society in order to be able to manage society most effectively 2.4.6 The development of science and technology 12 3.2.3 Decentralization mechanism between central government and provincial government The Government is the highest state administrative agency.In addition to the provisions in the law, the Government promulgates a number of regulations on the organizational structure of the system of state administrative management agencies at all levels The implementation of decentralization and separation of powers of management authority in the state administrative system in recent years has been carried out according to specific regulations and principles For provinces and cities, the Government has decentralized and defined functions, tasks and powers for a number of areas such as ensuring social order and security, international relations and cooperation according to the Government’s decisions… The coordination relationship between central administrative agencies and local administrative agencies at provincial level is also relatively clearly regulated, especially between three areas: planning, project and budget; coordinate in approving plans and budgets; on cadres and civil servant management In the Lao PDR, the process of decentralization, coordination, and assignment of certain tasks to the local authorities is being well implementedaccording to the Government's Sam Sang(“Three Builds”)program proposed and deployed across the country 3.3 General assessment of the organization of the state administrative apparatus at the provincial level of Lao PDR 3.3.1 Strengths - The organization of the state administrative apparatus distinguishes the state administrative apparatus at the provincial level from the district and village levels 17 same.Some provinces have 16 departments and departmentequivalent agencies, others have 20 departments and departmentequivalent agencies, depending on actual conditions of the province For agencies under provincial offices, some provinces have divisions or divisions Functions and tasks of province-level state administrative agencies also changed to suit the new model 3.2.2 Method of operation of the organization of the state administrative apparatus at the provincial level Administrative agencies of provinces and cities are provincelevel administrative agencies that have the role of state administrative management in terms of politics, administration, economy, culture society, defense and security protection, diplomacy, training and use of human resources, protection and use of natural resources, the environment and other resources in the locality, directing and inspecting the organization and implementation of development plans and strategies for districts, towns and cities within their management areas, to implement resolutions of meetings of the provincial people's councils The method of operation of the provincial administrative agencies of Lao PDR is through meetings A meeting of provincial administrative agencies is held once a month though, in case of necessity and urgency, extraordinary meetings may be held with the consent of the governor or mayor Over the course of operation, the organization of the state administrative apparatus of the Lao PDR in general and the organization of the province-level state administrative apparatus in particular has to coordinate with other agencies 16 The application of scientific and technological achievements in administrative management helps to narrow the spatial distance, shorten the time, reduce the actual costs and thus directly contribute to improving the efficiency of managementandoperating activities The development of science and technology changes the size and structure of state administrative agencies 2.4.7 Integration context The development of globalization increases the interdependences between countries That leads to the need to reform the state administration in general and the organization of the state administrative apparatus in particular in order to take advantage of opportunities, actively exploit advantages, limitations and overcome challenges 2.5 Organization of the province-level state administrative apparatus of Vietnam and reference values for Lao PDR 2.5.1 Organization of the province-level state administrative apparatus of Vietnam There are levels of administrative units (central, province, district, commune) Province-level government consists of People's Council and People's Committee The province-level state administrative apparatus consists of the People's Committee and specialized agencies, which are the provincial departments, the provincial inspectorate, the office of the provincial People's Committee The organizational structure of the provincial department, including: Professional division; Inspectorate (if any); Office (if any); Subdepartments and equivalents (if any); Public non-business units (if any) The law provides specific provisions on the criteria for establishing the department's organizational structure (or equivalent) The division of state administrative organization is based on population and area The number of cadres and civil servants and the number of leading and managerial cadres are specified in detail 13 2.5.2 Reference values for Lao PDR Through studying the organization of the province-level state administrative apparatus of Vietnam, some reference values for Lao PDR can be drawn as follows - A distinction in the tasks of the province-level state administrative apparatus in urban andrural areas, in plains and mountainous areas is necessary - There should be a division into two types of agencies, which are required agencies and optional agencies in the province-level state administrative apparatus in each locality - There should be specific regulations on the number of deputy heads of the province-level state administrative apparatus - The socialization of public administrative services for the state administrative apparatus at the provincial level shall be implemented Regarding local administration, there are 17 provinces, capital city, namely Vientiane Thus, there are 18 administrative units at the provincial level The new feature of local government under the 2015 Constitution is that at the provincial level there is a People's Council 3.1.2 Introduction to the organization of the provincial administrative apparatus of the Lao PDR - The organizational structure of the province-level state administrative apparatus The organizational structure of the province-level state administrative apparatus of Lao PDR includes: Offices of provinces and city; Departments and department-equivalent agencies; Provincial Inspector - The personnel structure of the organization of the state administrative apparatus at the provincial level The personnel structure of the organization of the province-level Chapter state administrative apparatus of Lao PDR includes: Governor, SITUATION OF THE ORGANIZATION OF THE PROVINCE- mayor;
