This article aims to clarify the theoretical issues and legal basis for streamlining Vietnam’s national administrative system today. By presenting different perspectives, policies, and legal foundations for reforming the country's administrative structure, the article demonstrates that streamlining the administrative system is a crucial management revolution for Vietnam's “New Era of Rise.” The success of this reform should be measured by clear improvements in service quality for businesses and citizens, as indicated by PCI/PAPI scores. The article also emphasizes that only through a combined approach—strengthening organizational efficiency, reforming administrative procedures (including digitalization), and investing in high-quality human resources—can the administrative system become a driving force, rather than an obstacle, for Vietnam’s development.
